Polymorphisms of xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes and susceptibility to cancer.
The variation in individual responses to exogenous agents is exceptionally wide. It is because of this large diversity of responsiveness that risk factors to environmentally induced diseases have been difficult to pinpoint, particularly at low exposure levels. Opportunities now exist for studies of host factors in cancer or other diseases in which an environmental component can be presumed. Man...
متن کاملFunctional Polymorphisms in Xenobiotic Metabolizing Enzymes and Their Impact on the Therapy of Breast Cancer
Breast cancer is the top cancer among women, and its incidence is increasing worldwide. Although the mortality tends to decrease due to early detection and treatment, there is great variability in the rates of clinical response and survival, which makes breast cancer one of the most appealing targets for pharmacogenomic studies. The recognition that functional CYP2D6 polymorphisms affect tamoxi...
متن کاملMolecular regulation of genes encoding xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes: mechanisms involving endogenous factors.
It is widely recognized that xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes play a fundamental role in the basic processes of carcinogenesis and toxicity on one hand, and chemoprevention and drug efficacy on the other. Realization that different factors can profoundly affect the expression of these enzymes at the genome level has resulted in an enhanced appreciation of the importance these genes play in our m...
متن کاملXenobiotic-metabolizing Cytochrome P450 Enzymes in Human Lung
The cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzyme system in human lung is an essential component in the pulmonary carcinogenicity of several inhaled xenobiotic compounds. The aim of this study was to elucidate the expression and regulation of xenobiotic-metabolizing CYP enzymes in human lung. To evaluate which of the two is a better surrogate cell model for lung tissue, the expression patterns of CYP enzymes in...
متن کاملThe effects of fenvalerate on hepatic and cerebral xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes in selenium and/or iodine deficient rats
Objective(s): Particularly in developing countries, selenium and/or iodine deficiencies are encountered and use of pesticides in agriculture are not well-controlled. Fenvalerate is a pyrethroid insectide used in agriculture and has applications against a wide range of pests. This study was designed to evaluate the effects of fenvalerate on hepatic and cerebral xenobiotic metabolizing enzyme act...
