4.1 Metabolism/Metabolites

INDOLE UNDERGOES SCISSION OF PYRROLE RING TO YIELD N-FORMYLANTHRANILIC ACID, AN UNSTABLE COMPD WHICH DECOMP INTO ANTHRANILIC ACID & FORMIC ACID. INDOLE IS FIRST HYDROXYLATED TO GIVE INDOXYL & THEN ISATIN, & IT IS PROBABLY LATTER WHICH UNDERGOES HYDROLYTIC RING OPENING.

4.2 Mechanism of Action

The effects of heterocyclic cmpd on hepatic xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes were studied in mice. Female CD-1 mice were admin 5 u mol/kg coumarin, trimethylene oxide (TMO), or trimethylene sulfide (TMS) for 6 days by gavage, or benzofuran, indole, or indole-3-carbinol (IC) daily for 10 days. Animals were /sacrificed/ 1 or 2 days after the last dose; livers were removed and assayed for epoxide hydrolase, glutathione-S-transferase (GST), reduced NADH-quinone-reductase (NADH/QR), glucose-6-phosphate-dehydrogenase (G6PDH), glutathione-reductase (GSSG-red), uridine-diphosphate-glucose-dehydrogenase (UDPGDH), aniline-hydroxylase, 7-ethoxycoumarin-deethylase (ECOD), and cytochrome-c-reductase (cyt-c-red) activities, and cytochrome p450. All cmpd except indole, significantly enhanced epoxide hydrolase activity. GST activities were elevated by all cmpd except TMO and TMS. NADH/QR activity was incr only by coumarin and benzofuran. Indole incr only GST, UDPGDH and cyt-c-red activities. IC enhanced GST, UDPGDH, cyt-c-red, epoxide hydrolase and cytochrome p450 and related monooxygenase activities. Benzofuran and coumarin showed more varied responses. Both cmpd incr epoxide hydrolase, GST and NADH/QR activities. Benzofuran decr cytochrome p450 content and elevated ECOD activity.
