The epoxide hydrolase (EH) activity in the liver of adult female Wistar rats significantly increased 18 h after the administration by gavage of tetramethyl thiuramdisulfide (TMTD, 1 mmol/kg) or tetramethyl thiurammonosulfide (TMTM, 2 mmol/kg). No increase was observed 5 h after administration of Na-dimethyl dithiocarbamate (Na-DMDTC, 4 mmol/kg). The glutathione S-transferase (GST) activity in the cytosol and microsomes of the liver was slightly enhanced after oral (gavage) administration of TMTD, TMTM or Na-DMDTC (doses up to 4 mmol/kg). In vitro, TMTD, TMTM, and Na-DMDTC significantly enhanced the hepatic activity of EH prepared from adult female Wistar rats. Cytosolic and microsomal GST activities from the liver were significantly raised in vitro by Na-DMDTC. The results have a bearing on the evaluation of the risk to health of these chemicals in the workplace.
