Application

Bromodichloromethane was used to investigate the in vivo genotoxicity of chlorodibromomethane, bromodichloromethane and bromoform in mice.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Bromodichloromethane (BDCM) induces steatohepatitic injury in human liver. BDCM induces the cell proliferation in different tissues and kidney damage by renal tuble cell proliferation in male F344 rats.

Chlorination of drinking water results in the formation of chlorodibromomethane, bromodichloromethane and bromoform. These trihalomethanes have all shown evidence of genotoxicity in bacterial and mammalian cell systems in vitro and some evidence of carcinogenicity in rodents. Chlorodibromomethane and bromodichloromethane have

Recent studies indicate that metabolic oxidative stress, autophagy, and inflammation are hallmarks of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) progression. However, the molecular mechanisms that link these important events in NASH remain unclear. In this study, we investigated the mechanistic role of purinergic

Male F344 rats exposed to bromodichloromethane (BDCM) by gavage at 50 or 100 mg/kg/day for 5 days a week for 28 days excreted large amounts of formic acid in their urine, which was accompanied by a change in urinary pH.
