Overexpression of Catalase Enhances Benzo(a)pyrene Detoxification in Endothelial Microsomes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
UNLABELLED:We previously reported that overexpression of catalase upregulated xenobiotic- metabolizing enzyme (XME) expression and diminished benzo(a)pyrene (BaP) intermediate accumulation in mouse aortic endothelial cells (MAECs). Endoplasmic reticulum (

Polymorphism of microsomal epoxide hydrolase is associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and bronchodilator response

open access: yesJournal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2011
Microsomal epoxide hydrolase (EPHX) is an important enzyme that metabolizes harmful reactive epoxides from smoking. Genetic variations of this enzyme are thought to increase the risk of developing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Phase I metabolic genes and risk of lung cancer: multiple polymorphisms and mRNA expression. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
Polymorphisms in genes coding for enzymes that activate tobacco lung carcinogens may generate inter-individual differences in lung cancer risk. Previous studies had limited sample sizes, poor exposure characterization, and a few single nucleotide ...

Lymphocyte microsomal epoxide hydrolase in patients on carbamazepine therapy. [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 1994
1. In order to determine whether carbamazepine is an inducer of lymphocyte microsomal epoxide hydrolase, the activity of the enzyme has been measured in the lymphocytes of 40 patients on continuous drug therapy using [3H]‐cis stilbene oxide as a substrate. 2.
