toxification : ウィキペディア英語版
Toxication
Toxication or toxification is conversion of chemical compounds into more toxic forms in living organisms or in substrates such as soil or water. The conversion can be caused by enzymatic metabolism in the organisms, as well as by abiotic chemical reactions.
Parent non-toxic chemicals are generally referred to as ''protoxins''. While toxication is generally undesirable, in certain cases it is required for the ''in vivo'' conversion of a prodrug to a metabolite with desired pharmacological or toxicological activity. Codeine is an example of a prodrug, which is metabolized in the body to the opiate known as morphine.
== Examples ==
Methanol in itself is toxic due to its CNS depressant properties, but acquires more dangerous toxicity through its metabolites formic acid and formaldehyde, which can cause severe acidosis, damage to the optic nerve, and other life-threatening complications.
Paracetamol (acetaminophen) produces the hepatotoxic metabolite NAPQI via the cytochrome P450 oxidase system.
Ethylene glycol (common antifreeze) metabolizes into toxic glycolic acid and oxalic acid in mammalian organisms.
Other examples of toxication include:
* Nitrites into carcinogenic nitrosamines
* Nicotine into the carcinogenic NNK (''4-(methylnitrosamino)- 1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone'')
* Benzo()pyrene into the carcinogenic ''benzo()pyrene diol epoxide'' (BP-7,8-epoxide into BP-7,8-dihydrodiol into BP-7,8-dihydrodiol-9,10-epoxide)
