Bone marrow is a major target of benzene toxicity, and NAD-(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase (NQO1), an enzyme protective against benzene toxicity, is present in human bone marrow endothelial cells, which form the hematopoietic stem cell vascular niche. In this study, we have employed a transformed human bone marrow endothelial cell (TrHBMEC) line to study the adverse effects induced by the benzene m...
