To elucidate biochemical mechanisms underlying the anticarcinogenic activity of butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), studies were undertaken to characterize the influence of BHT pretreatment on the metabolism and genotoxicity of aflatoxin B1(AFB1) in primary cultures of rat hepatocytes. During a 10-day pretreatment period, adult male rats were fed either a control diet or a diet supplemented with 0.5% BHT. Hepatocytes were subsequently isolated from each animal and cultured in chemically defined medium. Cultures prepared from rats which had been fed BHT metabolized AFB1more rapidly than did controls. BHT pretreatment also enhanced oxidation of AFB1to aflatoxin M1(AFM1), and accelerated the rate of AFM1conjugation. Covalent binding to DNA and RNA in BHT-pretreated cultures was reduced by 91 and 82%, respectively, while protein binding decreased by only 29%. AFB1did not stimulate detectable DNA repair synthesis in BHT-pretreated cultures, although stimulation of DNA repair was clearly evident in control cultures. In a separate experiment, consistently higher baseline concentrations of reduced glutathione were observed in BHT-pretreated cells, indicating that BHT pretreatment may enhance formation of detoxified glutathione conjugates of AFB1. These findings suggest that the anticarcinogenic activity of BHT is due in part to preferential enhancement of hepatic detoxification mechanisms, with the result that intracellular concentrations of reactive metabolites are reduced and fewer covalently bound adducts are formed.
