Elemental modifications and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon metabolism in human fibroblasts
Mineral fibers and particulates represent one of the best documented, economically important, and ubiquitously occurring categories of human carcinogens. Yet, while a wealth of information exists concerning the mechanism of action of physical, chemical, and viral carcinogens, virtually nothing is known relative to the mechanism of action of this economically important class of carcinogenic comp...
متن کاملPolycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon selected galaxies
Context. This is the fourth in a series of papers based on the ISOCAM Parallel Survey at 6.7 μm. While the first three papers have been devoted to active galactic nuclei (AGN), here we report on emission-line galaxies without AGN signatures in their optical spectra. Aims. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) emission has been found in both starbursts and modestly starforming galaxies, but the ...
متن کاملInterspecies comparison of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon metabolism in human and rat mammary epithelial cells.
Our laboratory has developed optimized and uniform methods for the isolation and culture of normal mammary epithelial cells from both rats and humans. We have reported that, in a cell-mediated mutagenesis assay, treatment of rat mammary epithelial cells with 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene, but not benzo(a)pyrene, resulted in significant rates of mutagenesis in cocultured V-79 cells. An opposite...
متن کاملCharacterization of elemental and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon compositions of the urban air in Brisbane
Characterization of the elemental and PAHs compositions of urban air was undertaken at three major sites in Brisbane, Australia. 17 elements and 16 US EPA priority PAHs were quantified at the sites. The most commonly detected elements in the TSP and PM2.5 fractions were Al, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Mo, Si, Sn, Sr and Zn. Compared to the two other sites, PM2.5 was found to contain higher concentr...
متن کاملDeterminants of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon-DNA Adducts in Human Placenta1
To determine the relative contributions of tobacco smoking and P-450 metabolism (cytochrome P-450iAi) in the formation of benzo(a)pyrenediol-epoxide and other polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon-DNA adducts in vivo, 16 human placentas were assayed for aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase activity and (±)r-7,f-8-dihydroxy-c-9,10-epoxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo(a)pyrene-DNA adduci levels. Immunoaffinity chro...
