We recently reported alkoxyl biphenyl derivatives bearing dibenzo[c,e]azepine scaffold as novel P-glycoprotein (P-gp, ABCB1) inhibitors. In this study, their ability to reverse breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP, ABCG2)-mediated multidrug resistance was tested in HEK293/BCRP cells which was
Exposure to polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) has been shown to influence expression of some biomarkers that are predictive/prognostic for breast cancer. Therefore, our study was conducted to further investigating associations of different functional PCBs in adipose tissue with breast Discrete windows of susceptibility to toxicants have been identified for the breast, including in utero, puberty, pregnancy, and postpartum. We tested the hypothesis that polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) measured during the early postpartum predict increased risk of maternal breast cancer diagnosed
BACKGROUND
To date, breast cancer epidemiologic studies have relied on blood or tissue specimens sampled at the time of diagnosis or a few years prior to assess lifetime exposure to polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB). In this study, we evaluated whether such PCB measurements are indicative of
It is generally acknowledged that polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) exposure increased the incidence of cancer, however, the underlying mechanism(s) of PCBs-induced cancer metastasis are unclear. Although PCBs readily metabolize, little information is available regarding the effect of PCBs
The most prevalent female cancer across the world is breast cancer. Current established breast cancer risk factors explain only a fraction of the breast cancer cases diagnosed, and for this reason, other environmental factors have been studied. Exposure to organochlorine compounds has been linked to
Some reports indicate that exposure to specific polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congeners is related to breast cancer risk. The authors recruited participants in a case-control study from October 1994 to March 1997 to assess the relation between breast cancer risk and concentrations of 14 PCB
We examined plasma dichlorodiphenyldichloroethene (DDE) and total polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) levels in relation to breast cancer in a population-based, case-control study of African-American women (292 cases and 270 controls) and white women (456 cases and 389 controls) in North Carolina.
BACKGROUND
Association between polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) exposure and breast cancer risk has been widely studied, but the results remain controversial. We performed a meta-analysis to evaluate the evidences from observational studies on PCB exposure and breast cancer risk.
METHODS
Relevant
Experimental studies show that hormonal and nonhormonal activities of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are structure dependent, suggesting that the breast cancer risk associated with PCBs may vary according to specific PCB congeners. In 1994-1997, the authors conducted a case-control study of
In a case-control study on 43 patients operated for invasive breast cancer (cases) and 35 patients operated for benign breast disease (controls) adipose tissue concentrations of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), 1,1-dichloro-2,2-bis(p-chlorophenyl)ethylene (DDE) and hexachlorobenzene (HCB) were
This case-control study was designed to investigate the relationship between polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and 1,1-dichloro-2,2'-bis(p-chlorophenyl)ethylene (DDE) and breast cancer risk in Connecticut. Cases were incident breast cancer patients who were either residents of Tolland County or who
To assess a possible etiological role of organochlorine compounds in breast cancer development on Long Island, a high-risk region of New York State, concentrations of organochlorine pesticides and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) were measured in the adipose tissue of 232 women with breast cancer
BACKGROUND
Environmental exposure to organochlorines has been examined as a potential risk factor for breast cancer. In 1993, five large U.S. studies of women located mainly in the northeastern United States were funded to evaluate the association of levels of 1,1-dichloro-2,2-bis(p-chlorophenyl)
In experimental systems, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) induce cytochrome P4501A1 (CYP1A1), which is involved in metabolism of steroid hormones and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in humans. A genetic polymorphism coding for a valine to isoleucine substitution in exon 7 has been associated with
