Metabolism of chemical carcinogens

Guengerich, F. Peter·2000·Carcinogenesis

Abstract

The transformation of chemicals is important in carcinogenesis, both in bioactivation and detoxification. Major advances in the past 20 years include appreciation of the migration of reactive electrophiles, the ability of Phase II conjugating enzymes to activate chemicals, understanding of the human enzymes, the realization that DNA modification can result from endogenous chemicals, and the demonstration that cancers can result from the metabolism of chemicals to non-covalently bound products. Pathways of transformation in which major insight was gained during the past 20 years include nitropolycyclic hydrocarbons, polycyclic hydrocarbons and their diols, vinyl halides and dihaloalkanes. Advances in analytical methods and recombinant DNA technology contributed greatly to the study of metabolism of chemical carcinogens. Major advances have been made in the assignment of roles of individual enzymes in reactions. The knowledge developed in this field has contributed to growth in the areas of chemoprevention, molecular epidemiology and species comparisons of risk. Some of the areas in which future development relevant to carcinogen metabolism is expected involve pathways of transformation of certain chemicals, regulation of genes coding for many of the enzymes under consideration and genomics.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
