The post-arylative mechanisms by whichN-acetylcysteine (NAC) reduces the severity of the hepatotoxicity induced by acetaminophen (APAP) were investigated in primary cultures of mouse hepatocytes. When administered at selected times immediately following removal of medium containing 10 mM APAP, 2.0mM NAC was shown to restore glutathione levels through 16 hr of APAP pretreatment and to minimize the leakage of glutamate-oxaloacetate transaminase resulting from the first 8 hr of drug exposure. This temporal difference denned a critical period in which cells were responsive to NAC and permitted the investigation of potential post-arylative mechanisms of the antidote. In the absence of NAC during the recovery period, the cellular loss of covalently-bound APAP could be accounted for by the appearance of arylated proteins in the medium without any apparent degradation of APAP-bound proteins. By contrast, when NAC was present during the recovery period, there was a decrease in intracellular protein-bound APAP which could not be accounted for by that detected in the medium. Since during the recovery period the low residual intracellular concentration of APAP could not contribute significantly to any additional covalent binding in this system, NAC could not merely be acting as a nucleophilic trap for the reactive electrophile. Furthermore, NAC is not likely to dissociate covalently bound APAP from proteins. Hence, the overall decrease in covalent binding observed in cultures previously exposed to APAP for up to 8hr must have arisen from an NAC-dependent enhancement of the degradation of the arylated proteins. However, after a more prolonged exposure to APAP, the ineffectiveness of NAC may have resulted from APAP-induced irreparable damage to the intracellular proteolytic system. These data suggest that the post-arylative efficacy of NAC may reside in the ability of the antidote to restore the functional capacity of the proteolytic system to rid the cells of arylated proteins.
