2-Amino-1 -methyl-6-phenylimidazo pyridine

Figure 11.4. Structures of various heterocyclic amines. IQ is 2-amino-3-methylimidazo-quinoline. MelQx is 2-amino-3,8-dimethylLtnidazo-quinoxalme. 4,8-DiMelQx is 2-amino-3,4,8-trimethylimidazo-quinoxaline. PhIP is 2-amino-l-methyl-6-phenylimidazo-pyridine. These and other related compounds can be found in fried or broil beef, fish, and chicken, but can also be created by cooking mixtures of creatinine, amino acids, and glucose. Microwave cooking, or cooking in aluminum foil, reduces the formation of heterocyclic amines. (From Sugimura, 1997.)...

While the HCA concentration is low, at the ppb level, the carcinogenicity may be enhanced by polyunsaturated oils. Since high-fat western diets may promote aryl amine cancer, considerable importance is attached to the roles of HCAs and the related food-derived PhIP, or 2-amino-l-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-ft]pyridine (57), in the etiology of cancer. The mechanisms are similar to those encountered with other tumor-forming...
