The inducibility of aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase (AHH) activity in peripheral mitogen-treated lymphocytes, and of AHH and other monoxygenase activities in lung samples, was studied in 41 patients-34 with pulmonary carcinoma, 4 with a benign lung tumour and 3 with chronic obstructive pulmonary diseas

## Abstract In both the rat kidney and lung, inhalation of cigarette smoke diluted with air (1/15) for a limited period of time (15 min) specifically induces aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase (AHH)<2> in less than 4 h. Up to four successive inhalations administered at 2โh intervals additively induce bot
Aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase (AHH) activity was measured fluorometrically in surgically-excised fresh lung tissue, pulmonary alveolar macrophages (PAMs), and peripheral blood lymphocytes from 14 cigarette smokers (7 with and 7 without primary lung cancer). Levels of AHH in fresh PAMs and AHH inducib
## Abstract Aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase (AHH) inducibility was studied in cultured lymphocytes from 21 healthy control subjects and from 15 lung cancer patients selected for radiation therapy. AHH inducibility of the patients was measured prior to, during and at the end of radiation therapy. Four
