چکیده

SUMMARY A single 200-j.ig dose of tritiated 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)-anthracene containing 18 j.iCi tritium was applied to the skin of female hairless mice. Biopsies were taken at intervals from 30 mm to 72 hr after application of the carcinogen and processed for autoradiography. All specimens showed labeling of many, but not all, dermal mast cells. The label was also found in the epidermis, hair follicles, and sebaceous glands, as previously shown by others.

Examination of the carcinogenic and cocarcinogenic effects of Grenz radiation.

The effects of the chemical carcinogen 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene on long-wavelength ionizing radiation (grenz ray)-induced carcinogenesis in the skin of hairless mice were examined. A carcinogenic amount of the grenz energy (20,500 R) was applied over a 12-month period. A single application of 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene 4 weeks before the initiation of the grenz ray exposures resulted ...

Potent tumor-initiating activity of the 3,4-dihydrodiol of 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene in mouse skin.

The abilities of the racemic trans-3,4-, 5,6-, and 8,9-dihydrodiols of 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene to initiate skin tumors in mice were determined by using a two-stage system of tumorigenesis. The 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene trans-3,4-dihydrodiol was found to be much more active as a tumor initiator than the parent hydrocarbon. The 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene trans-5,6- and 8,9-dihydro...

Sea urchin egg development under the action of benzo(a)pyrene and 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene.

hggs of the sea urchin Paracenlrotus lividus were used in testing the effect of benzo(a)pyrene and 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene on dividing and differentiating cells. In spite of the nonspecific labeling pattern of tritiated hydrocarbons to cell constituents, treatment of fertilized eggs and pretreatments of both the gametes before fertili zation have shown that the action of benzo(a)pyrene d...

Cancer chemopreventive effects of Pinus Maritima bark extract on ultraviolet radiation and ultraviolet radiation-7,12,dimethylbenz(a)anthracene induced skin carcinogenesis of hairless mice.

The bark extract of Pinus Maritima (PBE), a rich in phenolic acids, polyphenols and in particular flavonoids mixture, was examined for skin cancer preventive action that was evaluated in two different experimental animal tumor models induced by ultraviolet radiation (UVR) and combination of UVR with 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene. Significant decrease in the number of animals bearing tumors and...
