Oxidation of N-methylthiobenzamide and N-methylthiobenzamide S-oxide by liver and lung microsomes.
The in vitro oxidation of N-[14C]methylthiobenzamide (NMTB) and N-[14C]methylthiobenzamide S-oxide (NMTBSO) by rat lung and liver microsomes was studied. In the presence of an NADPH-generating system, NMTB was rapidly converted to NMTBSO and small amounts of N-methylbenzamide (NMBA) and covalently bound metabolites (CVB). Under similar conditions, NMTBSO was converted to NMBA and CVB. Studies with metabolic inhibitors indicate that both the S-oxidation of NMTB and its further conversion to NMBA and CVB, probably via enzymatic oxidation to the S,S-dioxide, are catalyzed by both cytochromes P-450 and the FAD-containing monooxygenase (MFMO). Based on differential effects of inhibitors with lung vs liver microsomes, it would appear that in lung microsomes the MFMO plays a significantly greater role than cytochrome P-450 in the oxidation of NMTB and NMTBSO, whereas in the liver the contribution of these two pathways is more nearly equal. 1-Methyl-1-phenyl-3-benzoylthiourea, which blocks the in vivo pneumotoxicity of both NMTB and NMTBSO, also inhibited their in vitro microsomal metabolism and CVB, suggesting that these oxidations are obligatory steps in the expression of toxicity by these compounds.
