Journal ArticleDOI

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons: from metabolism to lung cancer.

TL;DR: The goal of this review is to provide a current state-of-the-science of the mechanisms of human lung carcinogenesis mediated by PAHs, the experimental approaches used to study this complex class of compounds, and future directions for research of these compounds.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of cytochrome p450s in the generation and metabolism of reactive oxygen species.

TL;DR: Specific examples whereby ROS generated by CYPs contribute to or protect against various phenomena, such as hyperoxic lung injury, oxidative hepatic toxicity, formation of DNA adducts from lipid peroxidation products are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Determination of oxidative stress in vitiligo by measuring superoxide dismutase and catalase levels in vitiliginous and non-vitiliginous skin.

TL;DR: There is increased oxidative stress in vitiligo as is indicated by high levels of SOD and low levels of CAT in the skin of vitiliginous patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon‐inducible DNA adducts: Evidence by 32P‐postlabeling and use of knockout mice for Ah receptor‐independent mechanisms of metabolic activation in vivo

TL;DR: The existence of AHR‐ and CYP1A1‐independent mechanisms of PAH metabolic activation in mouse liver is demonstrated, a phenomenon that may have important implications for PAH‐mediated carcinogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sex-specific differences in neonatal hyperoxic lung injury.

TL;DR: The hypothesis that male neonatal mice will be more susceptible to hyperoxic lung injury and will display larger arrest in lung alveolarization is tested and the hypothesis that sex plays a crucial role in hyperoxia-mediated lung injury in this model is supported.
