TY - JOUR A1 - Wilk, Manfred A1 - Schmitt, Karlheinz T1 - Aktivierung von Steroidsystemen zu alkylierenden Agenzien T1 - Activation of steroid systems to alkylating agents T2 - Zeitschrift für Naturforschung, B N2 - 7-Dehydrocholesterol and ergosterol are oxidised by iodine and FeCl3 under "physiologically similar" conditions to highly reactive alkylating species. These can be trapped by nucleophiles, such as 1-methylimidazole. The oxidation of the sterols to those alkylating species is discussed as a model-reaction for the first step in chemical carcinogenesis by endogene substrates.
