摘要

Kojic acid has been used for skin whitening as a cosmetic agent. Kojic acid is believed to be hepatocarcinogenic in mice. We conducted the comet assay in mouse and rat multiple organs to evaluate its in vivo genotoxic potential.Kojic acid induced dose-dependent DNA damage in ddY mouse stomach and liver and in Wistar rat stomach, liver, lung, and bone marrow after a single gavage administration at ≦1000 mg/kg. Its hepatic genotoxicity detected by the comet assay seems to contradict to absence of its hepatic tumor initiating activity revealed by the two-step carcinogenesis studies with mice and rats. However, considering the possibility that the sensitivity of the two-step carcinogenesis studies performed are not high enough to detect weak initiating activity of a chemical, it would be premature to conclude that its hepatic genotoxicity contradicts to the absence of initiating activity. In mice fed a diet containing 3% kojic acid for up to 10 days, DNA migration increased in the stomach after feeding for 2 days but it did not increased after feeding for 1 day and ≧4 days. In the colon, DNA migration after feeding of 3%kojic acid for 2 days was higher than the control values, but this increase was not statistically signicant. In the stomach and colon, any statistically signicant increases in DNA migration were not observed after feeding of 1.5% kojic acid. In the liver, DNA migration increased with feeding period and the increases after feeding of 3% and 1.5% kojic acid for ≧4 days and 6 days, respectively, were statistically signicant. Our present results suggested good correlation between hepatocarcinogenicity of kojic acid and increasing tendency of its hepatic genotoxicity with dosing period when it is given to mice continuously in the diet.
