Genotoxicity Revaluation of Three Commercial Nitroheterocyclic Drugs: Nifurtimox, Benznidazole, and Metronidazole by Annamaria Buschini, Lisa Ferrarini, Susanna Franzoni, Serena Galati, Mirca Lazzaretti, Francesca Mussi, Cristina Northfleet de Albuquerque, Tânia Maria Araújo Domingues Zucchi, Paola Poli

“…The compounds are more active for base-pair substitution than frameshift induction in Salmonella; NFX and BNZ are more mutagenic than MTZ; they are widely dependent from nitroreduction whereas microsomal fraction S9 weakly affects the mutagenic potential. Comet assay detects BNZ- and NFX-induced DNA damage at doses in the range of therapeutically treated patient plasma concentration; BNZ seems to mainly act through ROS generation whereas a dose-dependent mechanism of DNA damaging is suggested for NFX. …”
