J A Hardin et al.
Toxicology and applied pharmacology, 117(2), 155-164 (1992-12-01)
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

Investigative ophthalmology & visual science, 49(11), 5111-5117 (2008-07-01)
To better understand the cellular and molecular basis for the epidemiologic association between cigarette smoke and age-related macular degeneration (AMD), the authors examined the effects of Benzo(e)Pyrene (B(e)P), a toxic element in cigarette smoke, on human retinal pigment epithelial cells

FASEB journal : official publication of the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology, 19(10), 1290-1292 (2005-06-09)
Although it has been demonstrated that carcinogenic environmental polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) cause progression of atherosclerosis, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. In the present study, we aimed to investigate whether DNA binding events are critically involved in the progression of

Organic & biomolecular chemistry, 5(14), 2234-2242 (2007-07-05)
A DFT study aimed at understanding structure-reactivity relationships and fluorine substitution effects on carbocation stability in benzo[a]pyrene (BaP), benzo[e]pyrene (BeP), and aza-benzo[a]pyrene (aza-BaP) derivatives are reported. The relative energies of the resulting carbocations are examined and compared, taking into account
Silvina Fioressi et al.
Environmental science & technology, 39(10), 3646-3655 (2005-06-16)
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.
