m-Tolualdehyde

Overview

m-Tolualdehyde (3-Methylbenzaldehyde) is an aldehyde metabolite produced by m-xylene metabolism, and it bidirectionally regulates the CYP 2B1 , CYP 2E1 , and CYP 4B1 isoenzymes in the respiratory tract of rats. m-Tolualdehyde serves as an oxidation substrate and carbon source for Pseudomonas Pxy , and it can be oxidized to m-toluic acid in an NAD + -dependent manner. m-Tolualdehyde exerts a dose-dependent inhibitory effect on CYP 2B1 and CYP 2E1 in the nasal mucosa and lungs of rats, and a dose-dependent activating effect on pulmonary CYP 4B1. m-Tolualdehyde can form aldehyde-heme adducts with the heme group of cytochrome P450 . m-Tolualdehyde can be used in studies related to metabolic enzymes in the respiratory tract of rats.
