Outline of Final Research Achievements

The cytotoxicity of 1,2,3-trichloropropane (TCP) is higher than that of 1,2-dichloropropane (DCP). Induction of drug-metabolizing enzymes did not affect toxicity. The mRNA synthesis of GSH-regenerating enzymes is higher than those of CYPs and GSTs in TCP treated cultured cells, suggesting that the metabolic activation by GSH may be deeply involved in the toxicity rather than that by CYPs.
The experiment using human fetal liver-derived cholangiocytes showed that treatment with TNFα increased mRNA level of NFκB and an enzyme related with somatic cell hyper mutation and class switch recombination, suggesting the involvement of this enzyme with mutation of cholangiocytes.
