Alterations of the phosphorylation pattern of histones by the carcinogen, 4,4'-methylene-bis(2-chloroaniline) (MOCA) were investigated using rodent spleen cells. Spleen cells were isolated from Sprague-Dawley rats and treated with either 5, 10, 25, or 50 microM MOCA or acetone vehicle controls for 1, 2, 4, or 8 hours. Cells were incubated with 32P-phosphoric acid, and histones from these cells were fractionated utilizing two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Marked stimulation of histone phosphorylation was observed with the 10 microM MOCA treatment. A transient decrease in histone phosphorylation was observed at the 1 and 2 hour time points followed by a marked stimulation at 4 hours.
