Primary culture of rat mammary epithelial cells. II. Cytotoxic effect and metabolism of 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene and N-nitroso-N-methylurea.

To determine the cytotoxicity of 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA) and N-nitroso-N-methylurea ( NMU) on primary cultures of rat mammary cells, cultures were exposed to various concentrations of these carcinogens. Cytotoxicity was evident after exposure for 24 hours to as little as 0.1 microgram DMBA/ml. Cytotoxicity was evident after exposure for 2 hours with NMU at concentrations between 80 and 160 microgram/ml. Primary cultures of rat mammary cells were also examined for their ability to metabolize [3H]DMBA into water-soluble products. During a 48-hour period, mammary cells could convert 2.2% [3H]DMBA to water-soluble metabolites. The cells retained (for at least 4 days) small quantities of [3H]DMBA that were insoluble in organic solvents.[1]
