Differential metabolism of benzo[a]pyrene and benzo[a]pyrene-7,8-dihydrodiol by human CYP1A1 variants [PDF]

open access: yesCarcinogenesis, 2001
Cytochrome P450 1A1 (CYP1A1) plays a key role in the metabolism of carcinogens, such as benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) and metabolites to ultimate carcinogens. Three human allelic variants, namely wild-type (CYP1A1.1), CYP1A1.2 (I462V) and CYP1A1.4 (T461N), were coexpressed by coinfection of baculovirus-infected insect cells with human NADPH-P450 reductase ...

Potential Neuroendocrine Disruption by Benzodiazepines and Its Impact on Male Fertility

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neuroactive substances have emerged as potent endocrine disruptors affecting male reproductive health through central and peripheral mechanisms. Among these, benzodiazepines, which are widely used for the management of anxiety, insomnia, epilepsy, and neuromuscular disorders, are known as GABA A (gamma‐aminobutyric acid type A) receptor ...

Does benzo[a]pyrene affect the heart embryonic development?

open access: yesAnnales Universitatis Paedagogicae Cracoviensis Studia Naturae, 2018
Benzo[a]pyrene is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon of well proved toxic effect on animal cells and tissues. We used chicken in ovo developmental model to verify its influence on selected parameters of the heart rhythm and on the antioxidative defense in

Metabolism of benzo[a]pyrene and benzo[a]pyrene-7,8-diol by human cytochrome P450 1B1 [PDF]

open access: yesCarcinogenesis, 1998
Benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P), a ubiquitous environmental, tobacco and dietary carcinogen, has been implicated in human cancer etiology. The role of human cytochrome P450 1B1 in the metabolism of B[a]P is poorly understood. Using microsomal preparations of human P450 1A1, 1A2 and 1B1 expressed in baculovirus-infected insect cells, as well as human and rat ...

White light emitting molecular logic gates

open access: yesSmart Molecules, EarlyView.
White light emitting smart molecules with Boolean logic computing ability are surveyed. Abstract White light emitting (WLE) materials are of considerable interest with commercial and societal applications in video displays and lighting devices. A characteristic property of WLE materials is the luminescence profile spanning from 380 to 700 nm.

Diving Deeper Into Mechanisms of Acrylamide‐Induced Toxicity: RNA Sequencing Reveals Transcriptomic Alteration and Retrotransposon Expression in Drosophila melanogaster

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Given the inevitability of human and animal exposure to acrylamide, there is increasing concern regarding its potential health risks. While a number of molecular mechanisms have been proposed, the complexity of acrylamide toxicological pathways and interactions remains incompletely characterized.
