Piperonyl butoxide is poorly absorbed from GI tract. In 2 experiments, 78% & 87%, respectively, of dose admin orally to dogs were recovered in feces. The small proportion that was absorbed from GI tract was rapidly excreted in urine. Intratracheal admin led to more prolonged excretion of metabolites in the bile and urine, but even in this instance residues in lung tissue were less than they were following iv admin.

[14C]-piperonyl butoxide (PBO) was administered to male and female rats by gavage at a dose rate of 50 or 500 mg/kg body weight. In all cases, the radioactivity was rapidly excreted with 87-99% being found in the 0-48-hr excreta and the majority of the dose (64.1-85.0%) being eliminated in feces. The metabolism of PBO was complex with over 25 peaks of radioactivity being seen by radio-high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Using HPLC/tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), 12 urine metabolites were assigned structures together with four plus PBO in feces. Metabolism occurred at two sites: the methylenedioxy ring, which opened to form a catechol that could then undergo methylation, and the 2-(2-butoxyethoxy)ethoxymethyl side-chain, which underwent sequential oxidation to a series of alcohols and acids. The identified metabolites accounted for approximately 60% of the administered dose.

In a metabolism study, a mixture of non-radiolabeled (93.4% a.i.) and phenyl labeled 14C-piperonyl butoxide (100% radiochemical purity) was administered to 4 CRL:CD rats/sex/dose by single gavage exposure at dose levels of 50 or 500 mg/kg body weight. The main route of excretion was via feces which contained 82.9-85.1% of the administered radioactivity at the low dose level and 64.1-75.9% at the high dose level at 168 hours. The percent radioactive dose excreted in the urine during 168 hours was 11.1-14.4% in low dose group and 19.5-30.2% in the high dose group. The majority of the administered radioactivity was excreted in 0-48 hour urine and feces samples in both dose groups. The percent of administered dose in carcass was below 0.5% in either low dose or high dose groups. The total percent of radioactive dose recovered in both dose groups ranged between 97.4% and 99.6%. There is no significant difference in the excretion pattern either between two dose groups or between sexes in the same dose group. M1 and M3 are the major metabolites excreted in feces. M1 was identified as unchanged PBO corresponding to 15.6-23.9% of administered dose. M3 was identified as PBO with methylenedioxy ring opened to form catechol and found at 17.4-19.7% of the administered dose. M2 and M4/M5 were also identified but were present in low amounts (4-6% of administered radioactivity) in high dose group. Several radioactive peaks (~20 peaks) were observed in urine samples and none of these individual peaks exceeded 5% of the administered radioactivity. The significant metabolite in male urine was found to be M14 which occurred at 3% of the administered dose. In females, the significant urinary metabolites identified were M6 and the combined M7/M8 which contained 5 and 9% of the administered dose, respectively. Although there was no significant difference in the excretion of metabolites between two dose groups, metabolites M5, M8, M9 and M10 were predominantly found in female urine samples and M14 was reported only in male urine samples. Based on the identification of metabolites, the authors proposed three major reactions in the metabolism of PBO: 1) Opening of the methylenedioxy ring to form the catechol; 2) Sequential cleavage of the 2-(2-butoxyethoxy)ethoxymethyl side chain to produce series of alcohols and acids; 3) Conjugation of one of the phenolic groups to yield glucuronide, sulfate or methoxy derivative.

In order to determine the human in vivo percutaneous absorption of piperonyl butoxide, a commercial formulation containing (14C)piperonyl butoxide (3.4 mCi/uM) was applied to the ventral forearm of six human volunteers. The formulation contained 3.0% piperonyl butoxide. Spreadability studies showed that concn 75.8 ug piperonyl butoxide/sq cm (used in this study) would be consistent with levels found in actual use. The forearms were thoroughly cleansed with soap and water 30 min after application (as recommended for actual use). Percutaneous absorption was determined by urinary cumulative excretion following dose application. With a 7 day urinary accumulation, ... 2.1+/- 0.6% of the dose of piperonyl butoxide applied was absorbed through the forearm skin. 1 hr after application blood samples contained no detectable radioactivity. The percutaneous absorption ... of piperonyl butoxide from the scalp was calculated to be 8.3%. ... The calculated half life of (14)C excretion was 32 hr for piperonyl butoxide. ...

Piperonyl butoxide is not a pesticide, but acts as a synergist to increase the activity of pesticides such as carbamates, pyrethrins, pyrethroids, and rotenone. Piperonyl butoxide inhibits the mixed-function oxidase (MFO) system of an insect. The MFO system is the insects natural defense system and causes the oxidative breakdown of insecticides. Thus, by inhibiting this system piperonyl butoxide promotes higher levels of insecticide and allows for lower doses to be used for a lethal effect.
To clarify the mechanism of piperonyl butoxide (PBO)-induced hepatocarcinogenesis in mice, male mice were subjected to a two-thirds partial hepatectomy, N-diethylnitrosamine (DEN) initiation, and a diet containing 0.6% PBO for eight weeks. The incidence of gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT)-positive foci and PCNA-positive cells was significantly increased in the DEN + PBO group compared with the DEN-alone group. Real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis showed up-regulation of genes related to metabolism, such as cytochrome P450 1A1 and 2B10, and metabolic stress, such as Por, Nqo1, Nrf2, abcc3, and abcc4. Early responsive genes downstream of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), such as c-fos, c-jun, c-myc, and activating transcription factor 3 (ATF3), were also up-regulated in this group. Positive immunohistochemical staining for ATF3 was diffusely observed in nonproliferating hepatocytes of the DEN + PBO group, but altered foci were negative or weakly positive for ATF3. The nuclei of hepatocytes within ATF3-negative foci were positive for cyclin D. Thus PBO can induce oxidative stress, activate the MAPK pathway, and increase ATF3 transcript levels in hepatocytes outside the altered foci during the early stage of PBO-induced hepatocarcinogenesis in mice. .
Kawai M et al; Toxicol Pathol 37 (6): 761-9 (2009). Available from, as of October 16, 2009: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=pubmed&dopt=Abstract&list_uids=19690152
... Male F344 rats were administered piperonyl butoxide mixed in the diet at concentrations of 0 (negative control), 0.05, 0.2 or 2% for 2 days, 1, 2, and 4 weeks. As a positive control, phenobarbital was administered to rats for up to 4 weeks as a 0.1% solution in the drinking water. Increased liver weight, centrilobular hepatocellular hypertrophy due to increased smooth endoplasmic reticulum, decreased numbers and areas of connexin 32-positive spots per hepatocyte, and increased cell proliferation were observed in rats treated with 0.2 and 2% piperonyl butoxide. Similar results were obtained for 0.1% phenobarbital treated rats. Hepatocellular necrosis suggestive of hepatotoxicity was also observed in the 2% piperonyl butoxide group. These results indicate that the promoting mechanism of piperonyl butoxide in hepatocarcinogenesis is similar to that of phenobarbital, involving an ability to induce CYP isoenzymes and inhibit gap junctional intercellular communication. In addition, increased cell proliferation following hepatocellular necrosis may also play a role at high doses.

Piperonyl butoxide (PBO) is an insecticide synergist known to inhibit the activity of cytochrome P450 enzymes. ... Little is known about how insects respond to PBO exposure at the gene transcription level. The authors have characterized the transcriptional response of the Drosophila melanogaster genome after PBO treatment, using both a custom-designed 'detox' microarray, containing cytochrome P450 (P450), glutathione S-transferase (GST) and esterase genes, and a full genome microarray. A subset of P450 and GST genes is identified, along with additional metabolic genes, that are induced by PBO. The gene set is an extremely similar gene set to that induced by phenobarbital, a compound for which pretreatment is known to confer tolerance to a range of insecticide compounds.

Piperonyl butoxide (PBO), alpha-[2-(2-butoxyethoxy)ethoxy]-4,5-methylene-dioxy-2-propyltoluene, is widely used as a synergist for pyrethrins. In order to clarify the possible mechanism of non-genotoxic hepatocarcinogenesis induced by PBO, molecular pathological analyses consisting of low-density microarray analysis and real-time reverse transcriptase (RT)-PCR were performed in male ICR mice fed a basal powdered diet containing 6000 or 0 ppm PBO for 1, 4, or 8 weeks. The animals were sacrificed at weeks 1, 4, and 8, and the livers were histopathologically examined and analyzed for gene expression using the microarray at weeks 1 and 4 followed by real-time RT-PCR at each time point. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) products were also measured using liver microsomes. At each time point, the hepatocytes of PBO-treated mice showed centrilobular hypertrophy and increased lipofuscin deposition in Schmorl staining. The ROS products were significantly increased in the liver microsomes of PBO-treated mice. In the microarray analysis, the expression of oxidative and metabolic stress-related genes--cytochrome P450 (Cyp) 1A1, Cyp2A5 (week 1 only), Cyp2B9, Cyp2B10, and NADPH-cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase (Por) was over-expressed in mice given PBO at weeks 1 and 4. Fluctuations of these genes were confirmed by real-time RT-PCR in PBO-treated mice at each time point. In additional real-time RT-PCR, the expression of Cyclin D1 gene, key regulator of cell-cycle progression, and Xrcc5 gene, DNA damage repair-related gene, was significantly increased at each time point and at week 8, respectively. These results suggest the possibility that PBO has the potential to generate ROS via the metabolic pathway and to induce oxidative stress, including oxidative DNA damage, resulting in the induction of hepatocellular tumors in mice.
