1 Benzo[a]pyrene-dependent activation of transcription factors NF-kappaB and AP-1 related to tumor promotion in hepatoma cell cultures. Benzo(a)pyrene nuclear factor kappa B subunit 1 Homo sapiens
2 The activation by the carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) benzo[a]pyrene (BP) of transcription factors NF-kappaB and AP-1 in hepatoma 27 and HepG2 cell cultures was studied. Benzo(a)pyrene nuclear factor kappa B subunit 1 Homo sapiens
3 The activation by the carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) benzo[a]pyrene (BP) of transcription factors NF-kappaB and AP-1 in hepatoma 27 and HepG2 cell cultures was studied. Benzo(a)pyrene nuclear factor kappa B subunit 1 Homo sapiens
4 The transcription factor NF-kappaB was activated only in the hepatoma 27 cells by BP treatment but not by its noncarcinogenic isomer benzo[e]pyrene (BeP). Benzo(a)pyrene nuclear factor kappa B subunit 1 Homo sapiens
5 It is concluded that the NF-kappaB activation is caused by nonmetabolized BP molecule and not related to activation of the Ah-receptor. Benzo(a)pyrene nuclear factor kappa B subunit 1 Homo sapiens
