Heme oxygenase expression in Swiss 3T3 cells following exposure to aqueous cigarette smoke fractions.

abstract：:Catechol (1,2-dihydroxybenzene) is a major phenolic compound present in the co-carcinogenic fraction of cigarette tar. It has been shown to be a potent co-carcinogen with benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) in mouse skin. In this study we have examined the co-carcinogenic and co-initiating activities of catechol with racemic and ena...
