1 A 1-month exposure to arsenic significantly increased hepatic mRNA levels of cyclin D1 (10 ppm), ILK (1 ppm), and p27(Kip1) (10 ppm), whereas it reduced mRNA levels of PTEN (1 ppm) and beta-catenin (100 ppm). Arsenic phosphatase and tensin homolog Rattus norvegicus
2 In contrast, a 4-month arsenic exposure showed increased mRNA expression of cyclin D1 (100 ppm), ILK (1 ppm), and p27(Kip1) (1 and 10 ppm), and decreased expression of both PTEN and beta-catenin at all 3 doses. Arsenic phosphatase and tensin homolog Rattus norvegicus
3 In conclusion, subchronic exposure to inorganic arsenate caused pathological changes and altered expression of cyclin D1, p27(Kip1), ILK, PTEN, and beta-catenin in the liver. arsenic acid phosphatase and tensin homolog Rattus norvegicus
