The alkenylbenzene estragole is a constituent of several herbs and spices. It induces hepatomas in rodents at high doses following bioactivation by cytochrome P450s and sulfotransferases (SULTs) giving rise to the ultimate carcinogenic metabolite 1'-sulfooxyestragole which forms DNA adducts. Methanolic
Estragole (ES) is a natural constituent of a number of plants (e.g. tarragon, sweet basil and sweet fennel) and their essential oils have been widely used in foodstuffs as flavouring agents. Several studies with oral, i.p. or s.c. administration to

Estragole (ES) is a natural constituent of several herbs and spices that acts as a carcinogen in the livers of rodents. Given that the proximal electrophilic form of ES with a reactive carbocation is generated by cytochrome P450 and a

Estragole (ES) is a natural organic compound used frequently as a flavoring food additive. Although it has been reported to be tumorigenic and induce DNA adducts in the mouse liver, there have been no reports regarding ES hepatocarcinogenicity in rats.
