1816080 Singh SK, Pandey RS: Ethanol potentiates in vivo hepatotoxicity of endosulfan in adult male rats. Indian J Exp Biol. 1991 Nov;29(11):1035-8.
In an attempt to evaluate the effect and interaction of ethanol on endosulfan-induced hepatotoxicity in vivo to adult male rats, both, endosulfan (7.5 mg/kg body wt) and ethanol (1.5 g/kg body wt) were studied separately as well as in combination after a chronic oral exposure of 30 days. When fed separately, both the agents were found to induce microsomal mixed function oxidase (MFO) system in treated animals. A simultaneous induction in the activity of cytosolic GSH-s-transferase was found to be associated with significantly induced ascorbate-induced microsomal lipid peroxidation. Both endosulfan and ethanol showed increasing trends in the activities of reducing equivalent (NADPH)-generating enzymes in liver. The activity of hepatic alcohol dehydrogenase was, however, found to be relatively unaffected. When ethanol was administered in combination with endosulfan, the observed effects on the activities of major drug metabolizing enzymes, microsomal lipid peroxidation and NADPH generation were further pronounced. Findings demonstrated the MFO inducing capability of both endosulfan and ethanol, and showed further that chronic ethanol ingestion might potentiate the in vivo hepatotoxicity of endosulfan if administered in combination.
