"
3.	Polychlorinated DibenzofuransIBA 05/01/1993 - "It is well-known that Yusho disease was caused by polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs), and that 2, 3, 4, 7, 8-Pentachlorodibenzofuran (PnCDF), 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8- and 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 8-Hexachlorodibenzofurans (HxCDFs) still retain in the patient bodies. " 05/01/2001 - "Polychlorinated biphenyls, polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins, and polychlorinated dibenzofurans as endocrine disrupters--what we have learned from Yusho disease." 01/01/1984 - "Through the analysis of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polychlorinated quaterphenyls ( PCQs ), and polychlorinated dibenzofurans ( PCDFs ) retained in the blood of Japanese and Taiwanese patients who had been poisoned by ingesting contaminated cooking oils, in the blood of workers occupationally exposed to PCBs, and in the blood of unexposed individuals, it was strongly suggested that PCDFs might be the responsible compounds for the development of yusho disease. " 01/01/1984 - "Through the analysis of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polychlorinated quaterphenyls (PCQs), and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs) retained in the blood of Japanese and Taiwanese patients who had been poisoned by ingesting contaminated cooking oils, in the blood of workers occupationally exposed to PCBs, and in the blood of unexposed individuals, it was strongly suggested that PCDFs might be the responsible compounds for the development of yusho disease. "
4.	dibenzofuranIBA 05/01/2015 - "The cause of Yusho disease is thought to be ingested toxic substances, including not only PCBs but also polychlorinated dibenzofuran (PCDFs) in Kanemi rice oil. " 04/01/2011 - "The cause of Yusho disease is thought to be ingested toxic substances, including not only PCBs but polychlorinated dibenzofuran (PCDFs) in Kanemi rice oil. " 09/01/2013 - "Yusho disease, a polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) and polychlorinated dibenzofuran (PCDF) mixed poisoning caused by contaminated rice oil, occurred in Japan in 1968. " 09/01/1999 - "We investigated the effects of Chlorella on fecal excretion of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxin (PCDD) congeners and polychlorinated dibenzofuran (PCDF) congeners in Wistar rats administered the rice oil that caused Yusho disease, as a substitute for purified dioxin. "
5.	OilsIBA 05/01/1989 - "The toxic effects for yusho disease by these substances were calculated from the relative enzyme induction potencies and the average concentrations in yusho oils with the production dates of February 9 and 10, 1968. " 01/01/1984 - "Through the analysis of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polychlorinated quaterphenyls ( PCQs ), and polychlorinated dibenzofurans ( PCDFs ) retained in the blood of Japanese and Taiwanese patients who had been poisoned by ingesting contaminated cooking oils, in the blood of workers occupationally exposed to PCBs, and in the blood of unexposed individuals, it was strongly suggested that PCDFs might be the responsible compounds for the development of yusho disease. " 01/01/1984 - "Through the analysis of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polychlorinated quaterphenyls (PCQs), and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs) retained in the blood of Japanese and Taiwanese patients who had been poisoned by ingesting contaminated cooking oils, in the blood of workers occupationally exposed to PCBs, and in the blood of unexposed individuals, it was strongly suggested that PCDFs might be the responsible compounds for the development of yusho disease. "

"
8.	ChemokinesIBA 10/01/2013 - "In addition, we measured serum chemokine levels in patients with Yusho disease (oil disease), who were accidentally exposed to dioxins in the past. "
9.	PorphyrinsIBA 01/01/1987 - "The outbreak of yusho disease in Japan (which was caused by PCB-contaminated rice oil) and a similar episode of food poisoning in Taiwan (which was also related to PCB contamination) were discussed, particularly with reference to urinary porphyrin levels and clinical response."
10.	MutagensIBA 01/01/2005 - "It was suggested, therefore, that mutagens and carcinogens were available for the fecal excretion of residual chemicals and their metabolites, and also for the fecal excretion of PCBs, PCDFs and related compound residues in patients of Yusho disease, who suffered food poisoning due to rice oil contaminated with PCB in Japan."
