1 | The treatment of adult mouse skin with 2 micrograms 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) resulted in a sustained decrease in the basal levels of both SOD and catalase activities in the epidermis. | Tetradecanoylphorbol Acetate | catalase | Mus musculus |
2 | The treatment of adult mouse skin with 2 micrograms 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) resulted in a sustained decrease in the basal levels of both SOD and catalase activities in the epidermis. | Tetradecanoylphorbol Acetate | catalase | Mus musculus |
3 | The alterations in both enzymes occurred against a high background of enhanced protein synthesis which indicates that the effect of TPA is selective for SOD and catalase. | Tetradecanoylphorbol Acetate | catalase | Mus musculus |
4 | These results indicate that damage which favors neoplastic progression could occur in TPA-treated mouse skin due to the accumulation of free radicals resulting from low levels of SOD and catalase activity. | Tetradecanoylphorbol Acetate | catalase | Mus musculus |
5 | In addition, the TPA-caused decrease in the levels of SOD and catalase was not prevented by either retinoic acid, fluocinolone acetonide, tosyl amino-2-phenylethyl chloromethyl ketone, or butylated hydroxytoluene, suggesting that inhibition of tumor promotion by these agents is not mediated through alterations in the levels of enzymatic activities which decrease free radical concentrations. | Tetradecanoylphorbol Acetate | catalase | Mus musculus |
