8 healthy male subjects were exposed to dimethylformamide vapor at a concn of 8.79 + or - 0.33 ppm for 6 hr/day for 5 consecutive days. All urine voided by the subjects was collected from the beginning of the first exposure to 24 hr past the end of the last exposure & each sample was analyzed for monomethylformamide. Monomethylformamide was rapidly eliminated from the body with urine values peaking within a few hr following the end of each exposure period. The mean for the 7 hr (end of exposure) sample was 4.74 ug/ml urine or 736.8 ug.

Dimethylformamide reached an average level of 2.8 mg/l in the blood of subjects exposed to 21 ppm of the vapor for 4 hr, & was undetectable at 4 hr after the exposure; the metabolite, methylformamide, averaged between 1 & 2 mg/l in the blood & this level was maintained for at least 4 hr after exposure. Maximal blood levels of about 14 & 8 mg/l were observed for dimethylformamide & methylformamide, respectively, at 0 & 3 hrs, after a 4 hr exposure to 87 ppm of the vapor. Repeated daily exposures to 21 ppm of dimethylformamide did not result in accumulation of the chemical or its metabolite in blood. /Dimethylformamide and methylformamide/

It is known that dimethylformamide is metabolized in man by sequential N-demethylation to methylformamide & formamide, which are largely eliminated in the urine.

In mice, NMF is metabolized mainly to carbon dioxide, which is exhaled with the breath, & to methylamine, which is excreted with the urine. Of the radioactivity injected with [C14]formyl-NMF (400 mg/kg), 39% was exhaled as carbon dioxide. The amount of the drug excreted unchanged in the urine in mice was only 26% & 15% of the dose was metabolized to methylamine. A mercapturate, N-acetyl-S-(N-methylcarbamoyl)cysteine was identified as a major metabolite of NMF in the urine of mice, rats, & patients. Formation of the novel metabolite involves oxidation of the formyl moiety & subsequent conjugation with glutathione. On GLC analysis of the urine of mice which had received NMF, small amounts of formamide were also detected. Some evidence suggests that this metabolite was actually N-hydroxy-methylformamide, the immediate product of N-methyl-C-hydroxylation of NMF, & not formamide. N-Hydroxymethylformamide, like N-hydroxymethyl-N-methylformamide, the principal metabolite of dimethylformamide, is thermally labile & breaks down to give formamide & formaldehyde; but it is stable in aqueous soln. In alkaline soln N-hydroxymethylformamide undergoes facile hydrolysis. Only 14% of the radioactivity injected with [C14]methyl-NMF was exhaled as labeled carbon dioxide. Formate was not a urinary metabolite of NMF in mice.

The mechanism by which NMF causes hepatotoxicity is currently under investigation. Evidence is accumulating which suggests that a reactive metabolite of NMF is involved. In vitro NMF was cytotoxic only at concns in the 0.1 M range whereas the maximum NMF concn in the plasma of animals which showed evidence of hepatotoxicity was below 0.01 M. The hypothesis that a reactive metabolite is formed which might be responsible for NMF-induced hepatotoxicity is supported by the following findings: 1) NMF caused the depletion of hepatic glutathione levels in vivo, & in hepatocytes in vitro; 2) an NMF metabolite (or metabolites) was covalently bound to liver microsomal protein; & 3) pretreatment of mice with cysteine or N-acetylcysteine protected against NMF-induced hepatotoxicity. Liver mitochondria may be a target for the reactive metab, as NMF has been shown to inhibit the ability of mouse liver mitochondria to sequester calcium ions when a hepatotoxic dose was admin ip.
