Numerous lines of evidence have now implicated 7,8-diol-9,10-epoxides as metabolically formed ultimate carcinogens from the environmental contaminant benzo[alpyrene. ly2 In an attempt to generalize the concept of diol epoxides3 as ultimate carcinogens, we have attempted to predict which of the sever

## Abstract The polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) dibenzo[__a,l__]pyrene (DBP) and benzo[__a__]pyrene (BP) are environmental contaminants and potent carcinogens. DBP is several orders of magnitude more mutagenic/carcinogenic than BP. This can be ascribed to differences in DNA binding efficien
The objective of this study was to investigate whether polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) contribute to the etiology of sporadic breast cancer by altering the expression of BRCA-1. Acute exposure to the PAH benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) inhibited in a time-and dose-dependent fashion cell proliferation
