Perspectives on polyhalogenated aromatic compounds.
Mechanisms of bone invasion by squamous carcinomas of the head and neck have, been investigated using fresh tumours and established tumour cell lines in an in vitro bone resorption assay with 45Ca-labelled mouse calvaria. Fresh tumours regularly resorb bone in vitro. Activity is consistently reduced by indomethacin. The tumours release E2 prostaglandins (PGE2) in amounts sufficient to account f...
متن کاملEffects of polyhalogenated aromatic compounds on porphyrin metabolism.
Heme production is a vital metabolic process that occurs in the bone marrow and liver. Porphyrins are unused by-products of this biosynthetic process and normally occur in urine and other body fluids in low concentrations. Various disorders can disrupt the heme biosynthetic process, causing greater quantities of porphyrins in urine. The porphyrias are a group of diseases characterized by excess...
متن کاملBacterial Degradation of Aromatic Compounds
Aromatic compounds are among the most prevalent and persistent pollutants in the environment. Petroleum-contaminated soil and sediment commonly contain a mixture of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and heterocyclic aromatics. Aromatics derived from industrial activities often have functional groups such as alkyls, halogens and nitro groups. Biodegradation is a major mechanism of removal ...
متن کاملPhotosubstitution Reactions of Aromatic Compounds
In nucleophilic aromatic photosubstitution, just as in aromatic substitution in the ground state, substituents can have directing and activating effects. Four rules, which describe orientation of nucleophilic substitution in the excited state, can now be formulated. They are: (a) meta-activation by the nitro group (b) ortho/para-activation by the methoxy group (and probably also by other electr...
متن کاملBenzene and Other Aromatic Compounds
The adjective "aromatic" is used by organic chemists in a rather different way than it is normally applied. It has its origin in the observation that certain natural substances, such as cinnamon bark, wintergreen leaves, vanilla beans and anise seeds, contained fragrant compounds having common but unexpected properties. Cinnamon bark, for example, yielded a pleasant smelling compound, formula C...
