The effect of 2,4,5,2′,4′,5′-hexachlorobiphenyl (6-CB) on hepatic microsomal monooxygenase activity in virgin or pregnant and lactating mice and their offspring was examined. 6-CB was administered in a single dose of 100 mg/kg 14 days before mating. Prior to, and during early pregnancy, hepatic monooxygenase activity in all 6-CB-pretreated mice was greater than that in corn oil controls. No notable differences were observed between pregnant and virgin animals in either group. Corn oil-pretreated mothers had lower cytochrome P-450 content during mid to late pregnancy and early lactation than that observed in virgins sacrificed at the same time, and benzphetamine-N-demethylation and ethoxycoumarin-O-deethylation were also decreased in lactating animals. Mothers pretreated with 6-CB and sacrificed on the day of birth had lower microsomal monooxygenase activity and cytochrome P-450 content than 6-CB-pretreated virgins sacrificed concurrently, but no differences were noted between these groups of animals during lactation. Hepatic enzyme activities and cytochrome P-450 content were not different between newborns (Day 1) of corn oil- and 6-CB-pretreated mothers. However, these parameters were elevated in 5- to 20-day postpartum nursing offspring from 6-CB-pretreated mothers when compared to those from corn oil-pretreated mothers suggesting transfer of 6-CB through breast milk in quantities sufficient to affect hepatic microsomal monooxygenase activity.
