10. Binding of deferoxamine to asbestos fibers in vitro and in vivo.

Author

Weitzman, Sigmund A., Chester, John F., and Graceffa, Philip

Abstract

We studied the binding of tritium-labeled deferoxamine, a strong iron chelator, to crocidolite asbestos fibers and . In aqueous suspension of asbestos, deferoxamine binding was rapid and strong, suggesting specific binding to iron. For the experiments, diffusion chambers containing native asbestos fibers or deferoxamine-washed asbestos were implanted in the peritoneal cavities of mice. Five days after parenteral injection of tritiated deferoxamine chambers were removed and the asbestos counted. More than twice as much label(2206 ± 348 c.p.m./100 mg asbestos) was bound to the native asbestos as compared to the deferoxamine-washed asbestos (1080 ± 201 c.p.m./100 mg asbestos), suggesting specific binding . Since deferoxamine can inhibit asbestos toxicity , these experiments suggest the feasibility of testing whether deferoxamine can prevent asbestos-related disease [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
