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 capacity for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) to suppress immune cell function has been well documented. Nevertheless, mechanisms responsible for PAH immunosuppression and potential effects of PAH on lymphocyte development (lymphopoeisis) remain poorly defined. Murine bone marrow cultures were used

It has been well established that certain polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), such as 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA), 3-methylcholanthrene (3MC), and benzo[a]pyrene (BaP), produce immunotoxicity and cancer in rodents and that these effects are also likely seen in humans. Our laboratory has found
