Indeed, despite the fact that R. T. Williams popularized the notion, he was among the first to caution that it was not possible to predict the biological activities of the resulting metabolites. It has become increasingly apparent in recent years that not only do many metabolites of drugs and other chemicals display biological activity but also in many instances these metabolites play an important role in initiating several forms of cancer and are the cause of a variety of types of toxicity. Thus it seems appropriate to collect in one volume a series of reports outlining advances in the study of the formation of chemically active intermediary metabolic products of chemicals, mechanisms of toxicity or carcinogenesis, and pathways for true detoxication of these chemicals. The work of R. T. Williams, beginning in the late 1920s and early 1930s, marked the first concerted effort to understand the biotransformation of foreign chemicals in animals. He investigated the metabolic pathway of numerous compounds in a wide variety of animal species while training large numbers of our colleagues who have been responsible for further advances in biochemistry, pharmacology, and toxicology. Another pioneer in the study of drug metabo lism, B. B. Brodie, was unable to take part in this presentation, but his significant contributions included not only laying the groundwork for the study of human drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics but also teaching many of the participants in this work. The fundamental contributions of H. Remmer to our understanding of enzyme induction and cytochrome P450 as well as his vigorous attempts to promote international scientific interchanges are also worthy of our acclaim. Certainly no one has contributed more to our understanding of meta bolic activation of xenobiotics and their covalent bonding to critical cellular elements than J. A. and E. C. Miller. These workers were among the first to demonstrate the metabolism of foreign compounds in vitro using liver mi crosomal preparations, they were the first to demonstrate enzyme induction by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and they have shown that many carcinogenic and mutagenic chemicals undergo metabolism to reactive electrophilic inter mediates that exert toxic effects by binding to critical sites on DNA, proteins, and other macromolecules. We are fortunate in having all of these scientists v vi Preface represented in this volume either directly or through their selected representa tives and it is to them that we dedicate this book. The papers published in this volume represent the proceedings of an inter national conference entitled Active Intermediates: Formation, Toxicity, and Inactivation which convened at the University of Turku, Turku, Finland, luly 26-27,1975. The conference was organized by a committee composed of Drs. 1. F. Borzelleca, 1. R. Gillette, O. Hanninen, D. 1. lollow (Cochairman), 1. 1. Kocsis, H. Remmer, R. Snyder (Cochairman), and H. Vainio (Cochairman). The chairmen wish to express their deep appreciation to Dr. Gillette for his produc tive efforts during the organization of the program. The conference would not have been possible without the generous support, encouragement, and participation of a number of individuals and organizations. Among these were the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences of the National Institutes of Health, Professor K. Hartiala and the University of Turku, the Turku University Foundation, the Ministry of Education of Finland, Thomas lefferson University, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the Rohm and Haas Company, the Hoffman-LaRoche Company, the Haskell Laboratories of E. I. DuPont de Nemours and Company, and Laake Oy, Turku, Finland. The editors decided not to present a verbatim reproduction of the discussion that accompanied each group of papers presented at the conference. Instead, Drs. 1. Saukkonen and C. M. Witmer of Thomas 1e fferson University and Dr. T. Walle of the Medical University of South Carolina prepared summaries of the discussions with the intent of presenting only their salient features in a concise manner. We also wish to express our gratitude to Drs. R. T. Williams, K. 1. Netter, 1. A. Miller, S. Orrenius, R. Sato, and H. Gelboin for their efforts as session chairmen. We wish to acknowledge the hospitality, the facilities, and the stimulating scientific atmosphere that we enjoyed in Turku. International cooperation and exchange of ideas should never be considered extraordinary. Communication is the lifeblood of science. That our fundamental purpose can be achieved while enjoying cordial relationships with our colleagues around the world is a fringe benefit of untold value. D.l.l. 1.1. K. R.S. H.V. Contents I.
