Human exposure to the class of nitropolynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons is via inhalation and/or ingestion. Therefore, one of the goals of this study was to determine the propensity of the environmental contaminant 6-nitrochrysene (6-NC) for inducing mammary cancer following its oral

The environmental contaminant 6-nitrochrysene (6-NC) has been shown to induce adenomas and adenocarcinomas in the colons of rats. The present study aimed at providing a better understanding of mechanisms that are responsible for this effect. Three female CD rats were

The remarkable carcinogenic activity of 6-nitrochrysene (6-NC) in several animal models, and its environmental presence, suggest its potential importance with regard to human cancer development. Depending on the bioassay model, 6-NC can be activated by simple nitro reduction, ring oxidation

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and nitro-PAHs (NPAHs) in PM2.5 samples were collected at a roadside monitoring station in Kanazawa, Japan, in every season from 2017 to 2018. Nine PAHs and five NPAHs were determined using high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence

Chemical research in toxicology, 24(1), 65-72 (2010-12-01)
Ubiquitous environmental agents [e.g., polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and their nitrated derivatives (NO(2)-PAHs)] that are known to induce mammary cancer in rodents are regarded as potential human risk factors for inducing analogous human cancers. Although 6-nitrochrysene (6-NC) is less abundant
