1,3-Butadiene (BD) is an air pollutant whose toxicity and carcinogenicity have been considered primarily mediated by its reactive metabolites, 3,4-epoxy-1-butene and 1,2,3,4-diepoxybutane, formed in liver and extrahepatic tissues by cytochromes P450s. A possible alternative metabolic pathway in bone marrow and immune cells is the conversion of BD to the chlorinated allylic alcohol 1-chloro-2-hydroxy-3-butene (CHB) by myeloperoxidase in the presence of hydrogen peroxide and chloride ion. In the present study, we investigated the in vitro bioactivation of CHB by alcohol dehydrogenases (ADH) under in 1 vitro physiological conditions (pH 7.4, 37 degrees C). The results provide clear evidence for CHB being converted to 1-chloro-3-buten-2-one (CBO) by purified horse liver ADH and rat liver cytosol. CBO, readily reacted with glutathione (GSH) under assay conditions to form three products: two CBO-mono-GSH conjugates [1-chloro-4-(S-glutathionyl)butan-2-one (3) and 1-(S-glutathionyl)-3-buten-2-one (4)] and one CBO-di-GSH conjugate [1,4-bis(S-glutathionyl)butan-2-one (5)]. CHB bioactivation and the ratios of the three GSH conjugates formed were dependent upon incubation time, GSH and CHB concentrations, and the presence of ADH or rat liver cytosol. The ADH enzymatic reaction followed Michaelis-Menten kinetics with a K-m at 3.5 mM and a k(cat) at 0.033 s(-1). After CBO was incubated with freshly isolated mouse erythrocytes, globin dimers were detected using SDS-PAGE and silver staining, providing evidence that CBO can act as a protein cross-linking agent. Collectively, the results provide clear evidence for CHB bioactivation by ADH and rat liver cytosol to yield CBO. The bifunctional alkylating ability of CBO suggests that it may play a role in BD toxicity and/or carcinogenicity.
