Cultures of melanocytes and keratocytes were exposed to 15 micrograms ml-1 tyrosinase and 4-hydroxyanisole (4-OHA) 5 X 10(-4) M to 5 X 10(-2) M for 1 to 24 h. No damage was suffered by either cell below 5 X 10(-3) M 4-OHA for 6 h, but higher concentrations and longer exposures extensively damaged both cells. Exposure of cells washed free of culture medium to tyrosinase and 4-OHA 1 X 10(-3) M for 1 h resulted also in extensive damage. This indicates that an early-formed toxic product of the reaction between tyrosinase and 4-OHA is inactivated by constituents of the medium. This was confirmed by Liquid Chromatography and Scanning Spectrophotometry which showed that a toxic 4-OHA quinone immediately reacted with nucleophilic substances in the medium resulting in products which, on accumulation, are probably responsible for the later (6 h plus) damage to melanocytes and keratocytes. A possible effect of allegedly specific melanocytotoxic drugs on keratocytes should always be borne in mind with tissue culture experiments.
