Non-mutagenic carcinogens are primarily hydrophobic.

Abstract:

:There is no unique mechanism to explain the activity in animals of 'non-genotoxic' carcinogens. In this they differ from 'genotoxic' carcinogens that are DNA reactive. In the present study it is reported that non-mutagenic carcinogens, as a group, have significantly higher computed octanol/water partition coefficients than mutagenic ones. This property of non-mutagenic carcinogens may suggest that their ability to induce tumors is associated with membraneous receptor sites and/or a longer residence time in the animal.

  • Violacein synergistically increases 5-fluorouracil cytotoxicity, induces apoptosis and inhibits Akt-mediated signal transduction in human colorectal cancer cells.

    abstract::Despite recent additions to the armory of chemotherapeutic agents for colorectal cancer (CRC) treatment, the results of chemotherapy remain unsatisfactory. 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) still represents the cornerstone of treatment and resistance to its actions is a major obstacle to successful chemotherapy. Therefore, new ac...
