The role of cyclooxygenase enzymes in the growth of human gall bladder cancer cells.

abstract：:Species differences in the metabolism of toxic chemicals can confound the extrapolation of experimentally determined risk data to man. However, it is often difficult to obtain reliable information on human metabolism, particularly of genotoxic agents. In this study, comparisons of chromatographic profiles of DNA adduc...
