Synthesis of the 13 C 2 -labelled analogues of the carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon benzo[a]pyrene and its active metabolites is described. The method entails Pd-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura coupling of a naphthalene boronic acid with 2-bromobenzene-1,3-dialdehyde followed by Wittig reaction

Ellagic acid, a plant phenol present in various foods consumed by humans, has been reported to have both anti-mutagenic and anticarcinogenic potential. To evaluate the potential anti-carcinogenic property of ellagic acid, we tested its effects on the toxicity of benzo [aj~yrene and benzo[af~yrene, 7
Peroxidatic metabolism of benzo( a ) pyrene-7,S-dihydrodiol by calcium containing extracts of rat uteri was investigated. Covalently bound and soluble metabolites of benzo( a)pyrene-7,S-dihydrodiol were quantitated by radiometry and high performance liquid chromatography, respectively. 1. Uterine ex
## Abstract The potent carcinogen benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) and its metabolite B[a]P __trans__β7, 8βdihydrodiol (7, 8βdiol) require metabolic activation by the microsomal cytochrome P450s (P450s) to exert several adverse biological effects, including binding to DNA, toxicity, mutagenicity, and carcino
## Abstract Bronchial epithelial cells are often exposed to airborne mutagens that have the potential to induce genetic changes involved in the development of lung cancer. Although lung tumors often display alterations in the expression of oncogenes and/or tumor suppressor genes, the role of specif
