Methylenedioxybenzenes (MDBs) and structurally related alkenylbenzenes were compared for their effectiveness in preventing carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced liver necrosis in mice. Pretreatment with isosafrole, safrole, dihydrosafrole, and benzodioxole at dosages as low as 10 mg/kg significantly
Citrus aurantifolia (Christm.) Swingle (syn. C. MEDICA var. ACIDA Brandis) (family: Rutaceae) essential oil is one of the cheapest oils found in local markets. Although, it is generally accepted as non-toxic to vital organs and cells, majority of people are cynical about it usage. Herein, the
Methyleugenol is used as a flavoring agent in jellies, baked goods, nonalcoholic beverages, chewing gum, candy, pudding, relish, and ice cream. It is also used as a fragrance in perfumes, creams, lotions, detergents, and soaps. Methyleugenol has also been used as an insect attractant in eradication
Previously it was shown that methylenedioxybenzenes (MDBs), particularly isosafrole, were highly effective at preventing CCl4-induced liver necrosis in vivo (Z.S. Zhao, P.J. O'Brien, The prevention of CCl4-induced liver necrosis in mice by naturally occurring methylenedioxybenzenes, Toxicol. Appl.
We aimed to modify an in vivo/in vitro hepatocyte replicative DNA synthesis (RDS) test using autoradiography of [3H]methylthymidine (3HTdR) into a nonradioactive in vivo version by applying 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU) immunohistochemistry. The effects of 12 nongenotoxic hepatocarcinogens and 4
Isoeugenol is one of several structurally similar phenylpropenoid compounds produced by plants. It has been extracted from calamus, savory, basil, ylang-ylang, clove, tuberose, jonquil, nutmeg, tobacco, sandalwood, dill seed, mace, gardenia, petunia, and other flowers. Isoeugenol can also be
Methyleugenol (MEG) was tested for toxicity/carcinogenicity in a 2-yr carcinogenesis bioassay because of its widespread use in a variety of foods, beverages, and cosmetics as well as its structural resemblance to the known carcinogen safrole. F344/N rats and B6C3F(1) mice (50 animals/sex/dose group)
