cresol/neoplasms

Sodium p-Chloro-m-Cresol, p-Chloro-m-Cresol (PCMC), Mixed Cresols, m-Cresol, o-Cresol, p-Cresol, Isopropyl Cresols, Thymol, Chlorothymol, o-Cymen-5-ol, and Carvacrol are substituted phenols used as cosmetic biocides/preservatives and/or fragrance ingredients. Only PCMC, Thymol, and o-Cymen-5-ol are

Class II antiarrhythmics or β-blockers are antisympathetic nervous system agents that act by blocking β-adrenoceptors. Despite their common clinical use, little is known about the effects of β-blockers on free intracellular calcium (Ca²⁺_i), an important

4,4'-Thiobis(6- t -butyl- m -cresol) (TBBC) is used in the rubber and plastics industries as an antioxidant. TBBC is also used as a stabilizer in polyethylene and polyolefin packaging materials for foodstuffs. Toxicology and carcinogenesis studies were conducted by administering TBBC (99% pure) in

BACKGROUND Cancer of the sigmoid colon is especially sensitive to environmental factors such as food. The authors have conducted a series of studies with food as the external environmental factor and intestinal microflora as the internal environment factor in relation to sigmoid colon

Ryanodine receptors (RyRs) have been previously implicated in the proliferation of human T-lymphocytes and melanocytes as well as in the motility of astrocytes. We have examined RyR expression in 57 ductal, human breast cancer specimens, by immunohistochemistry. Moderate to high RyR immunostaining

Colorectal cancer is not strictly considered a tobacco-related malignancy, but modest associations have emerged from large meta-analyses. Most studies, however, use self-reported data, which are subject to misclassification. Biomarkers of tobacco exposure may reduce misclassification and provide

Antrodia cinnamomea is a valuable and unique edible fungus originating from the forests of Taiwan. In this study, an anti-metastatic compound, 2,3,5-trimethoxy-4-cresol (TMC), was isolated from the solid-state cultured mycelium of A. cinnamomea. According to the results obtained from cell wound

The purpose of this cohort study is to shed further light on the potential carcinogenic effect indicated by a Swedish case control study of the 2,4-dichlorophenol and 4-chloro-ortho-cresol based phenoxy herbicides, unlikely to be contaminated with 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (2,3,7,8-TCDD).

Adult female B6C3F1 mice were gavaged with TBBC in corn oil at doses of 10, 100, or 200 mg/kg daily for 14 consecutive days. All immunological parameters were measured 24 hr after the last chemical exposure. When indicated, animals were immunized during the exposure. TBBC produced a decrease in the

The chemical structures of Ru (II) complexes are known to affect their cellular behavior and toxicity. In this study, three new luminescent Ru (II) complexes, [Ru(bpy)₂(HIPMP)](ClO₄)₂ (Ru1, bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine, HIPMP = 2-(1H-imidazo-[4,5-f] [1,10]

In 1982, a Danish cohort study was initiated of workers in the manufacture of 2,4-dichlorophenol- and 4-chloro-ortho-cresol-based phenoxy herbicides, after a governmental working group had indicated the need for further data on the long-term health consequences of exposure to these phenoxy

Context Inulin, a non-digestible carbohydrate isolated from Helianthus tuberosus L. (Asteraceae), has been shown to alter the gut beneficial bacteria including Lactobacillus spp. and Bifidobacteria. Inulin also influences the activities of intestinal microbiota that could prevent the colon cancer

The effects of 4,6-dinitro-o-cresol and 2,4,5-trichlorophenol on the respiration and cell division of fertilized eggs of Arbacia punctulata have been determined in the presence of each of a number of respiratory inhibitors. The experimental results obtained appear to afford some understanding of the

1. Xenobiotics are metabolized and eliminated through the coordinated interplay of their metabolizing enzymes and transporters. However, these two activities in vitro are measured separately, with the addition of ATP as a pre-requisite. 2. We propose a human renal cell-line model which integrates

The antioxidant food additives 2(3)-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyanisole (BHA), 2,6-di(tert-butyl)-p-cresol (BHT) and the methyl and propyl esters of gallic acid inhibited Trypanosoma cruzi culture growth and oxygen consumption. The I50 values for growth and oxygen uptake with BHA were 0.284 and 0.400 and
