Lipid composition of rat mammary carcinomas, mammary glands, and related tissues: endocrine influences

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1966
The lipids of mammary glands and mammary carcinomas from rats in various hormonal states were studied and compared with each other, with adipose tissue, and with a new transplantable sarcoma derived from cultured mammary carcinoma cells. When large doses

The effects of polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs) on mammalian ovarian function

open access: yesCurrent Research in Toxicology, 2022
Polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs) are a broad class of contaminants ubiquitously present in the environment due to natural and anthropogenic activities. With increasing industrialization and reliance on petroleum worldwide, PACs are increasingly being

3-Methylcholanthrene uptake and metabolism in organ culture [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Cancer, 1975
The uptake of 3-methycholanthrene and its metabolism to water-soluble derivatives were both determined in organ cultures of mouse and rat tissues, including prostate, skin, lung and skeletal muscle. All the tissues concentrated the carcinogen from the medium and metabolized part of it to water-soluble compounds.

Phenethylisothiocyanate Potentiates Platinum Therapy by Reversing Cisplatin Resistance in Cervical Cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
Acquired cisplatin resistance in cervical cancer therapy is principally caused by reduction in intracellular drug accumulation, which is exerted by hyperactivation of the oncogenic PI3K/Akt signaling axis and overexpression of cisplatin-exporter MRP2 ...

MODIFICATION OF REPRODUCTIVE FUNCTION IN THE RAT BY 3-METHYLCHOLANTHRENE

open access: yesPharmacological Research, 1997
Repeated exposure of adult female Wistar rats to 3-methylcholanthrene (MC) (25 mg kg(-1) b.w., i.p., 2xwk, 1 mo) was associated with a significant increase in estrus cycle length. In addition, an increased frequency of females with constant diestrus and abnormal cycles was observed.

Monocrotophos induces the expression and activity of xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes in pre-sensitized cultured human brain cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The expression and metabolic profile of cytochrome P450s (CYPs) is largely missing in human brain due to non-availability of brain tissue. We attempted to address the issue by using human brain neuronal (SH-SY5Y) and glial (U373-MG) cells. The expression

GFP transgenic medaka (Oryzias latipes) under the inducible cyp1a promoter provide a sensitive and convenient biological indicator for the presence of TCDD and other persistent organic chemicals. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are resistant to environmental degradation and can cause multitude of health problems. Cytochrome P450 1A (Cyp1a) is often up-regulated by POPs through the activation of aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) pathway and is ...
