A novel mutagenic compound, 9-(4'-aminophenyl)-9H- pyrido[3,4-b]indole (aminophenylnorharman, APNH), is shown to be formed by the in vitro enzymatic reaction of 9H-pyrido[3,4-b]indole (norharman) and aniline. APNH generates DNA adducts (dG-C8-APNH), and is potently genotoxic to bacteria and
Syrian golden hamsters were given intratracheal instillations of glass fibers with or without BP suspended in saline, once a fortnight for 52 weeks; the experiment was terminated at week 85. No tumors of the respiratory tract were observed in hamsters treated with glass fibers alone. There was no
A novel heterocyclic amine, 9-(4'-aminophenyl)-9H-pyrido[3,4-b]indole (aminophenylnorharman, APNH), which is formed from nonmutagenic 9H-pyrido[3,4-b]indole (norharman) and aniline, is mutagenic to bacteria and mammalian cells and potently carcinogenic in rats. APNH is detected in human urine
