Abstract
Male rat liver intact nuclear preparations are able to metabolize adriamycin to reactive species that irreversibly interact with nuclear DNA and proteins in the presence of reduced NADPH. This process was not inhibited by 1 mM SKF-525A, suggesting that a nuclear monooxygenase enzymatic system was not involved.
