The effect of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) on the template function for RNA synthesis of several single and double-stranded synthetic DNAs containing cytosine (C) and/or hypoxanthine (H) bases is studied in vitro. The results indicate that AFB1, after liver microsome activation, strongly inhibits the templat

## Abstract Epigenetic changes in gene expression due to extensive CpG island methylation is now accepted as the main cause of inactivation of the __p16__ gene. More recently, it has been suggested that the human ras association domain family (RASSF) 1 gene, cloned from the lung tumorβsuppressor lo
## Abstract The chlorine disinfection byβproducts, dichloroacetic acid (DCA) and trichloroacetic acid (TCA), are carcinogenic in mouse liver. We have previously reported that DCA and TCA induced DNA hypomethylation in mouse liver. In the present study, we determined the temporal association for DNA
Trichloroethylene (TCE) is a multimedia environmental pollution that is carcinogenic in mouse liver. The ability of TCE to modulate DNA methylation and the expression of immediate-early protooncogenes was evaluated. Female B6C3F1 mice were administered 1000 mg/kg TCE by gavage 5 days/week and killed
