In the rat, expression of the CYP1A1 gene is closely associated with arylhydrocarbon hydroxylase (AHH) enzyme activity. AHH is an inducile enzyme activity known to play an important role in the bioactivation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) to mutagenic and
To study the inhibitory effects of some agents or drugs (inhibitors) on benzo(e)pyrene (B(e)P)-induced cell death and apoptosis on human retinal pigment epithelial (ARPE-19) cells in vitro. ARPE-19 cells were pretreated with varying concentrations of different classes of inhibitors (calpain
The photodegradation of benzo[e]pyrene (BeP), a ubiquitous polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) contaminant, was investigated in solution and adsorbed on surfaces modeling the atmospheric particulate matter to provide fundamental information that could help to clarify its fate in the atmosphere.
