Human pulmonary tissue are known to contain enzymes mediating procarcinogen activation. Peripheral blood lymphocytes and bronchoalveolar macrophages (BAMs) have been used as surrogates for the lung in studies involving cytochrome P450 (CYP) parameters, including CYP1A1 inducibility in relation to su
23%-34%), although the other enzyme, quinone reductase, which helps in the removal of toxic quinones, was found to be elevated (184%-199%). These results suggest several mechanisms by which benzanthrone may inhibit P450. This impairment of xenobiotic metabolism as well as the enhancement of lipid pe
