Reduction of 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide to 4-hydroxyaminoquinoline 1-oxide in lysates of cytomegalovirus-infected cells.
The rates of virus inactivation by 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide (NQO) and 4-hydroxyaminoquinoline 1-oxide (HAQO) were compared and samples of cytomegalovirus (CMV)-infected cell lysates to which NQO had been added were examined for the presence of HAQO. These experiments demonstrated that (i) CMV inactivation by HAQO was more rapid than with NQO, (ii) virus inactivation by either NQO or HAQO failed...
متن کاملInhibition of 4-nitroquinoline-1-oxide-induced oral carcinogenesis by dietary calcium.
Calcium is a strong inducer of keratinocyte differentiation. We have previously demonstrated that extracellular calcium promotes keratinocyte differentiation via E-cadherin-catenin complex-mediated phospholipase C-γ1 (PLC-γ1) activation in the plasma membrane. However, it is unclear whether dietary calcium regulates keratinocyte proliferation, differentiation or carcinogenesis. To address this ...
متن کاملImbalance of tumor suppression genes expression following rat tongue carcinogenesis induced by 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide.
This study was undertaken to investigate, by immunohistochemistry, the expression of some tumor suppressor genes such as p16, p21 and Retinoblastoma (Rb) during 4-Nitroquinoline 1-oxide induced rat tongue carcinogenesis. Male Wistar rats were distributed into three groups of 10 animals each and treated with 50 ppm 4NQO solution through their drinking water for 4, 12 or 20 weeks. Ten animals wer...
متن کاملStrand scission and rejoining of DNA in cultured mammalian cells induced by 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide.
The effect of the carcinogen, 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide, on cultured mouse fibroblasts, strain L-P3, a substrain of L-929, was studied. Cells were cultured in a proteinand lipid-free synthetic medium, DM-120. Strand breakage and repair of DNA caused by 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide was examined. 4-Nitroquinoline 1-oxide caused singleand double-strand breaks of DNA as shown by alkaline and neutral suc...
متن کاملChemopreventive effect of green tea catechin on rat tongue carcinogenesis induced by 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide
Treatments for oral cancer may have significant adverse effect on the patient’s activities of daily living (ADL) and quality of life (QOL). However, foods may offer potential for chemoprevention. In recent years, attention has been focused on the anti-tumor and carcinogenesis-inhibiting actions of green tea. (−)Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), the main component of green tea catechins, has be...
