title: [Immune response to benzo(a)pyrene in rabbits immunized with a conjugate of benzo(a)pyrene-albumin, synthesized in the microsomal monooxygenase system of the liver].
abstract: The feasibility of obtaining a conjugated benz(a)pyrene-protein antigen in the liver cytochrome P-450 system was studied. Covalent binding of benz(a)pyrene (BP) to albumin was performed with the use of liver microsomal fractions of 3-methylcholanthrene-induced rabbits. It was demonstrated that BP oxidation in liver microsomes is accompanied by covalent binding of [14C]BP to exogenous rabbit albumin. Immunization of rabbits with the obtained conjugate results in the development of a specific immune response to BP, and the appearance of specific antibodies and lymphocytes specifically binding [14C]BP in the blood.
