01/01/2015 - "In the present study, the cancer chemopreventive potential of cardamom was investigated against benzo(α)pyrene [B(α)P]-induced forestomach papillomagenesis in mice. "
11/01/2000 - "In the present study a traditional remedy, consisting of an aqueous extract of mixed parts of the tree Abies alba and its mistletoe Viscum album se abies was tested on benzo(alpha)pyrene(BaP)-induced tumors in Wistar rats and on the L-1210 malignant cell line. "
08/01/2015 - "The transfer of SC-GSL was tumor cell-specific and induced membrane rearrangement as evidenced by a transbilayer flip-flop of pyrene-SM. "
07/01/2011 - "In mice receiving no therapy, benz(a)pyrene applications increased the concentrations of malonic dialdehyde in the serum and skin tumor tissue in comparison with the concentrations in the sera and skin of intact mice. "
07/01/2008 - "That benzo alpha)pyrene (Balpha P) decreases both humoral and cell-mediated immunity, and leads to increases in progeny tumor development after in utero insult, suggests that T- and B-lymphocytes are made defective in exposed offspring. "

07/01/2012 - "The photocatalytic degradation of pyrene under UV (125 W Hg-Arc, 10.4 mW/cm2) irradiation of TiO2 aqueous suspension has been found to be highly improved with the dissolved transition metal ions like Cu2+, Fe3+, Ag+, and Au3+, etc. As the reduction potential of these metals lies below the conduction band (CB) position (−0.1 eV) of TiO2, the photoexcited electron transfer occurs more readily and reduces electron–hole recombination rate. "
08/15/2010 - "acenaphthene, fluorene, anthracene and pyrene are used as targets for investigation of PAHs treatment process assisted by dc gliding arc discharge. "
08/15/2010 - "Destruction of acenaphthene, fluorene, anthracene and pyrene by a dc gliding arc plasma reactor."
04/01/2009 - "With an Xe arc lamp house as simulated sunlight, the influences of fulvic acid (FA) concentration and origins on photodegradation of acenaphthene, fluorine, phenanthrene, fluoranthene and pyrene in aqueous solution have been studied. "

10/01/1982 - "In six children in the first remission after treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) the constitutive activity of aryl hydrocarbon (benzo-[alpha]pyrene) hydroxylase (AHH) (0.14 +/- 0.04 U, i.e. "

12/01/2012 - "In this study, benzo(α)pyrene [B(α)P] was used to induce lung cancer. "
10/01/2010 - "The aim of this study is to evaluate the antitumor effect of indirubin-3-monoxime and its mode of action in benzo(α)pyrene [B(α)P] induced lung cancer in A/J mice. "
03/01/2012 - "High risk of benzo[α]pyrene-induced lung cancer in E160D FEN1 mutant mice."
01/01/2009 - "In the group of males a relationship was observed between an increased morbidity to lung cancer and an increasing concentration of pyrene and PM10 respirable dust fraction in ambient air. "
02/15/2003 - "The carcinogen (7R,8S)-dihydroxy-(9S,10R)-epoxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo[a]pyrene induces Cdc25B expression in human bronchial and lung cancer cells."

09/15/1987 - "In this study we examined the effect of inflammation on the metabolic activation of (+/-)-trans-7,8-dihydroxy-7,8-dihydrobenzo[a]pyrene (BP 7,8-dihydrodiol) to a covalent binding species in mouse epidermis. "
01/01/2013 - "This study showed that although the carcinogen benzo-α-pyrene facilitated HPV pseudovirion uptake into cells in culture, HPV infectivity was independent of inflammation and seems to play only a minor role in oesophageal cancer."
01/01/2013 - "When inflammation was mimicked with various inflammatory stimulants such as benzo-α-pyrene, lipopolysaccharide and peptidoglycan in oesophageal epithelial cell lines in vitro, HPV18 pseudovirion uptake was enhanced only in the benzo-α-pyrene treated cells. "
08/01/1985 - "Oxidants, such as those generated by metabolically activated phagocytes in inflammation, have been implicated in the metabolic activation of carcinogens, and in this study we demonstrate that the interaction of (+/-)-trans-7,8-dihydroxy-7,8-dihydrobenzo[a]pyrene (BP 7,8-dihydrodiol) with phorbol ester-stimulated polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) results in the generation of both a chemiluminescent intermediate and one that covalently binds to DNA.
