Significant increases in the mean hepatic weight, the concentrations of hepatic microsomal protein, cytochrome P-450, cytochrome b5, and cytochrome c reductase activity occurred in the aminals given a ration containing 250 mg of hexachlorobenzene/kg for 21 days, when compared with their nontreated controls.

Single intraperitoneal injections of octachlorostyrene (OCS) and hexachlorobenzene in genetically polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon "responsive' C57/BL/6 (B6) mice led to a time- and dose-dependent increase in the levels of liver microsomal cytochromes P-450 and b5 as well as in the activities of NADPH cytochrome P-450 (cytochrome c) reductase, ethylmorphine (EM) N-demethylase, 4-nitroanisole (PNA) O-demethylase and acetanilide 4-hydroxylase (AcA hydroxylase).

This process is associated with dose-dependent increases in cytochrome c release from the mitochondria and procaspase-9 processing to its active product.

Microsomal cytochrome P-450, NADPH-cytochrome c reductase, ethoxyresorufin O-de-ethylase, aminopyrine N-demethylase, and glucuronyl transferase increased to a maximum in 2-4 weeks in HCB and HCB + PCP fed rats.

The catalytic activity of the enzyme towards various substrates (dealkylation of 7-ethoxycoumarin, hydroxylation of biphenyl and NADPH-dependent reduction of cytochrome c) corresponds to that obtained in animals treated with a mixture of phenobarbital and benzpyrene. 2.

Sera from hexachlorobenzene-induced porphyric rats were examined for evidence of complement activation.
By sephadex G-75 chromatography, the irradiated serum had potent chemotactic activity eluted near the cytochrome C marker.

At the end of the experiment (day 97), the concentration of liver microsomal cytochrome P-450 and cytochrome bs and the activity of ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase, pentoxyresorufin-O-dealkylase, aminopyrine-N-demethylase and UDP-glucuronosyl transferase were significantly induced, whereas the activity of NADPH-cytochrome c reductase and benzo [a] pyrene hydroxylase was not.
