TLDR
The spectrophotofluorometric determination of hydroxylated benzo[a]pyrene products is sufficiently sensitive to detect 10-12 mole per ml and has great utility in measuring the hydroxymatic activity of cells grown in culture.

Role of Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor-mediated Induction of the CYP1 Enzymes in Environmental Toxicity and Cancer

TL;DR: Differences in AHR affinity between inbred mouse strains reflect variations in CYP1 inducibility and clearly have been shown to be associated with differences in risk of toxicity or cancer caused by PAHs and arylamines.

Epoxides in polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon metabolism and carcinogenesis.

TL;DR: This chapter discusses the role of intermediates such as free radicals, radical cations, and carbonium ions in polycyclic hydrocarbon carcinogenesis, and discusses the factors that can influence the formation, further metabolism, and biological effectiveness of polycyclIC hydrocarbon epoxides.

Separation and characterization of highly purified forms of liver microsomal cytochrome P-450 from rats treated with polychlorinated biphenyls, phenobarbital, and 3-methylcholanthrene.

TL;DR: The forms of cytochrome P-450 obtained from phenobarbitaland 3-methylcholanthrene-treated rats are indistinguishable from the corresponding forms from Aroclor 1254~treated rats by all criteria examined.

The Carbon Monoxide-binding Pigment of Liver Microsomes I. EVIDENCE FOR ITS HEMOPROTEIN NATURE

TL;DR: The present paper gives a detailed account of the investigations on rabbit liver microsomes and crude microsomal digests, which have led to postulate the hemoprotein nature of the pigment.

Pharmacological implications of microsomal enzyme induction

TL;DR: It is of considerable interest that certain inducers of liver microsomal enzymes have recently been used therapeutically for the treatment of hyperbilirubinemia in jaundiced children and for thetreatment of Cushing's syndrome.

Microsomal triphosphopyridine nucleotide-cytochrome c reductase of liver.

TL;DR: The biological role of reduced triphosphopyridine nucleotide (TPNH) and the metabolic pathways of its hydrogen atom and electron appear to be fundamentally different from those of reduced diphosphipyridineucleotide (DPNH).
