The potency of seven phenoxyacetic acid derivatives to induce microsomal stearoyl-CoA desaturation activity in rat liver was compared with that of 2-(4-chlorphenoxy)-2-methy-propionic acid (clofibric acid). These compounds were given to rats with diet. Of seven phenoxyacetic acid derivatives tested, both 2-(4-chlorophenoxy)-propionic acid and 2-(2-chlorophenoxy)-2-methyl-propionic acid increased considerably the desaturation activity as was observed with clofibric acid. Moreover, 2,4,5-trichlorphenoxyacetic acid (2,4,5-T) also increased the desaturation activity, although the inducing effect on desaturation activity was very weak compared to that of clofibric acid. These three compounds increased activity of terminal desaturase without accompanying marked changes in reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH)-cytochrome b_5 reductase activity and cytochrome b_5 content as was the case with clofibric acid. The other four phenoxyacetic acid derivatives, 2-(phenoxy)-propionic acid, 4-chloropphenoxyacetic acid, 2-chlorophenoxyacetic acid and 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) changed scarcely the desaturation activity. These compounds had no influence on NADH-cytochrome b_5 reductase activity, cytochrome b_5 content and terminal desaturase activity. Correlating with the changes in the desaturation activity, concentration of octadecenoic acid was increased in hepatic microsomes, whole liver and serum. Treatment with clofibric acid did not change the concentration of octadecenoic acid in brain, lung, heart, spleen, testis and adipose tissue.
