Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs)--environmental carcinogens--are metabolized by CYP1A1 and CYP1A2 enzymes to oxy-derivatives, which are able to bind to DNA and initiate carcinogenesis. PAHs induce CYP1A1 and CYP1A2 activity, which increases the risk of development of carcinogenesis. Isothiocyanates (ITCs), naturally

Benzo[b]phenanthro[2,3-d]thiophene (BPT), a thia analogue of dibenz[a,h]anthracene (DBA), is a carcinogenic environmental pollutant. We have examined the metabolism of BPT by rodent liver microsomes to investigate the mechanism by which BPT produces mutagenic and carcinogenic effects. Both rat and mouse
