Delivery: from the site of exposure to the target
Section 1

Toxicology - Chaper 4 4
Absorption versus Presystemic Elimilation
• Absorption: Transfer of a chemical from the site of exposure into the systemic circulation
• Presystemic Elimilation: The GI mucosa and the liver may elimilate a significant fraction of a txicant during its passage through tissues, decreasing its systemic availability

Distribution to and away from the target
• Mechanisms facilitating distribution to a target:
– Porosity of the capillary endothelium
– Specialized membrane transport
– Reversible intracellular binding

Distribution to and away from the target
• Mechanisms opposing distribution to a target:
– Binding to plasma proteins

Excretion versus Reabsorption
• Excretion: Physical removal of xenobiotics from the blood and their return to the external environment
• Reabsorption: Diffusion of toxicants in the renal tubules and the GI tract across the tubular cells and intestinal mucosa back into the circulation
![Page 8: Mechanisms of Toxicity](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102517/56813515550346895d9c6a7b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Toxicology - Chaper 4 8
Toxication versus Detoxication
• Toxication: Biotransformation of xenobiotics to harmful products, also called activation
![Page 9: Mechanisms of Toxicity](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102517/56813515550346895d9c6a7b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Toxicology - Chaper 4 9
Toxication versus Detoxication
The cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (CYP) are by far the most important enzymes involved in the oxidation of xenobiotics.
This is because of the abundance of CYP (especially in the liver), the numerous isozymes of CYP, and the ability of CYP to be induced by xenobiotic compounds.
Although the CYP enzymes are the most abundant in the liver, they are also present in other tissues including the skin, kidney, intestine, lung, placenta, and nasal mucosa.
Because CYP exists as multiple isozymes with different substrate specificities, the presence or absence of a particular CYP isozyme may contribute to tissue-specific toxicities.
Many drugs and other foreign compounds are known to induce one or more of the CYP isozymes, resulting in an increase, decrease, or an alteration in the metabolic pathway of chemicals metabolized by the CYP isozymes involved.

groups– Detoxication of electrophiles– Detoxication of free radicals– Detoxication of nucleophiles– Detoxication of protein toxins

Some important terms
Some important terms that are often used when discussing activation
include parent compound, sometimes referred to as procarcinogen in the case of a carcinogen or prodrug for pharmaceutical compounds;
proximate toxic metabolite or proximate carcinogen for one or more of the intermediates; and ultimate toxic metabolite or ultimate carcinogen for the reactive species that binds to macromolecules and DNA.
