The in vitro genotoxicity of N-nitrosopyrrolidine (NPy) has been studied in Salmonella typhimurium strain TA1535 in the presence of untreated and pyrazole-, phenobarbital (PB)-, 4-day ethanol (EtOH)-, 10-day EtOH- and 3-methylcholanthrene (3-MC)-pretreated male Sprague-Dawley rat liver S-9 fractions. Unless stated otherwise, the last pretreatment exposure was 24 h prior to sacrifice and isolation of hepatic enzymes. Pyrazole and EtOH (10-day exposure) both effectively induced the conversion of NPy into a mutagen at doses as low as 500 microM. PB and EtOH (4-day exposure) had a modest enhancing effect on the number of revertants scored, while 3-MC and uninduced S-9 fractions gave results not significantly different from background (no NPy). The same pretreatment protocols were used to determine the in vivo genotoxicity of NPy in rat liver using the technique of alkaline elution. The inducing agents had the exact opposite effect in vivo with control, 3-MC- and 4-day EtOH-treated animals showing the highest level of DNA damage. Pyrazole and 10-day EtOH pretreatments gave DNA elution rate constants comparable to animals not treated with NPy. However, in 10-day EtOH-pretreated animals which were administered NPy without a 24-h interval between EtOH and NPy exposure, DNA damage was observed at the same high levels as was seen in uninduced and 3-MC treated rats. The results are discussed in terms of a detoxification role for microsomal proteins and that the observed in vivo DNA damage may be induced by enzymes associated with the nuclear compartment.
