Abstract A study was conducted on adducts formed between hemoglobin and acrylonitrile (107131) (AN). Male Fischer-344-rats and male B6C3F1-mice were gavaged with up to 28mg/kg or 10mg/kg radiolabeled AN, respectively, and blood was collected either 24 or 72 hours later. The formation of hemoglobin/acrylonitrile adducts was assessed by chromatography. The reaction of erythrocytes from rats or mice and labeled acrylonitrile was also studied in-vitro, and the extent of globin binding was measured by scintillation counting following globin isolation. Rat hemoglobin bound a greater amount of acrylonitrile compared with mice; however, the shape of the dose response curves was similar in both species. A nonlinear binding curve was seen with higher levels of binding at higher doses. The major peaks detected from hydrolyzed rat and mice globin samples and in-vitro treated samples had the same retention times as S-(2-carboxyethyl)-cysteine. The formation of this species was postulated to result from the direct reaction of AN with cysteine in hemoglobin yielding S-(2-cyanoethyl)cysteine, which was detected as S-(2-carboxyethyl)cysteine following acid hydrolysis.
