Involvement of free radicals in the mechanism of 3-methylindole-induced pulmonary toxicity: an example of metabolic activation in chemically induced lung disease.

3-Methylindole (3-MI) is a metabolite of tryptophan which causes acute pulmonary edema and emphysema in ruminants when administered orally or intravenously. 3-MI is metabolized by mixed-function oxidases to a reactive intermediate which may play a role in 3-MI-induced pneumotoxicity. Electron spin-t...
