In this study, a fully automated incapillary system was developed to monitor the activity of CYP1A1 (Cytochrome P450, family 1, subfamily A, polypeptide 1) in physiological conditions. Ethoxycoumarin, the selected substrate, undergoes an inline bioreaction in the presence of CYP1A1 supersomes and Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate reduced as cofactor, giving rise to hydroxycoumarin, th...

The CYP1A1 gene encodes for the enzyme, aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase, which is involved in the biotransformation of various aromatic tobacco precarcinogens. In the present study, the association between CYP1A1 gene polymorphisms (IVS1-728G > A, Thr461Asn and Ile462Val), and the risk of oral cancer, was examined among 157 patients with oral cancer and 132 age-matched controls, in a south Indian ...

Uterine leiomyoma (UL) is the most common benign smooth muscle cell tumor with as yet unknown etiology and pathogenesis. This study was carried out to investigate the association of ESR1-351 A>G, ESR1 -397 T>C and CYP1A1 (Ile462Val) polymorphisms with UL in female patients of Iranian origin. In this case-control study, 276 patients with UL and 156 healthy women were recruited. The genetic polym...

objective: cytochrome p450 is one of the major drug metabolizing enzyme families and its role in metabolism of cancer drugs cannot be less emphasized. the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (snps) in cyp1a1 and pathogenesis of chronic myeloid leukemia (cml) has been investigated in several studies, but the results observed vary based on varied risk factors. the objective of thi...

PURPOSE The antipsychotic drug haloperidol can be metabolised to pyridinium metabolites haloperidol pyridinium (HP+) and reduced haloperidol pyridinium (RHP+). These pyridinium metabolites were proposed to contribute to the extrapyramidal side effects of haloperidol, because they are structural analogues of N-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+), a well-known neurotoxin. RHP+ can be oxidized to HP+...

Crossing the Cyp1a1/1a2(-/-) double-knockout mouse with the Cyp1b1(-/-) single-knockout mouse, we generated the Cyp1a1/1a2/1b1(-/-) triple-knockout mouse. In this triple-knockout mouse, statistically significant phenotypes (with incomplete penetrance) included slower weight gain and greater risk of embryolethality before gestational day 11, hydrocephalus, hermaphroditism, and cystic ovaries. Or...

normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa microsoftinternetexplorer4 background : lung cancer has remained the most prevalent malignancy worldwide. it is the fifth leading cause of cancer death in iran. nevertheless, during last few years a gradual permanent increase in its incidence has been reported. although the crucial role of tobacco smoke in lung cancer initiation has long been establ...

Lung cancer is a common malignant tumor that is characterized by high morbidity and poor prognosis. Studies suggest that an individual's genetic background affects the risk of developing lung cancer. Therefore, we investigated the relationship between gene polymorphisms and susceptibility to lung cancer. We recruited 308 primary lung cancer patients as subjects and 253 healthy adults as control...

PURPOSE to investigate genetic polymorphisms in GSTM1, GSTT1 and CYP1A1 and the association with the risk of oral cancer in the Jakarta population. METHOD A total of 81 cases and 162 controls matched for age and sex were selected from 5 hospitals in Jakarta. Sociodemographic data using questionnaires were obtained and peripheral blood samples were collected with informed consent for PCR-RFLP ...

PURPOSE To evaluate the effect of cocoa flavonoids in breast cancer cells at the molecular level, a functional genomic analysis was performed using a polyphenolic cocoa extract (PCE) in MCF-7 and SKBR3 cell lines. METHODS The expression profile of 84 genes included in the Stress & Toxicity PathwayFinder™ PCR Array was analyzed after PCE incubation for 24 h. mRNA and protein levels were analyz...
