Disease relevance of LS-1827

 

High impact information on LS-1827

  • Lymphocytes from naive mice or mice photosensitized with musk ambrette (MA) demonstrated a significantly lower response to LC-EC modified with TCSA + UVA, indicating the specificity of the response [6].
  • This study reports the induction of contact photodermatitis to musk ambrette, 2-methoxy-3,5-dinitro-4-methyl-t-butylbenzene, in guinea pigs [2].
  • Phtotoxicity tests to musk ambrette at concentrations between 1 and 50% and a dose of 10.2 joules/cm2 from "Black Light" fluorescent tubes were all negative [2].
  • Musk ambrette (2,6-dinitro-3-methoxy-4-tert-butyltoluene), a nitro-musk compound widely used as a fixative in fragrance formulations and found to a lesser degree in flavor compositions, produces hindlimb weakness when administered in the diet or applied to skin of rats for periods up to 12 weeks [7].
  • To clarify the role of bacterial nitroreductases (NR) in the toxification of musk ambrette to mutagenic metabolites the compound was examined with the Salmonella/mammalian microsome assay using the NR deficient strain S.typhimurium TA 100 NR in the presence and absence of S9 [5].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of LS-1827

 

Biological context of LS-1827

  • Musk ambrette showed mutagenicity in Salmonella typhimurium TA 100 requiring metabolic activation by rat liver postmitochondrial supernatant (S9) but it lacked mutagenicity in the absence of S9 and genotoxicity in the SOS chromotest [11].
