Metabolism, toxicity and anticancer activities of arsenic compounds
A variety of studies indicated that inorganic arsenic and its methylated metabolites have paradoxical effects, namely, carcinogenic and anticancer effects. Epidemiological studies have shown that long term exposure to arsenic can increase the risk of cancers of lung, skin or bladder in man, which is probably associated with the arsenic metabolism. In fact, the enzymatic conversion of inorganic ...
متن کاملArsenic and Arsenic Compounds
Arsenic (atomic number, 33; relative atomic mass, 74.92) has chemical and physical properties intermediate between a metal and a nonmetal, and is often referred to as a metalloid or semi-metal. It belongs to Group VA of the Periodic Table, and can exist in four oxidation states: –3, 0, +3, and +5. Arsenite, AsIII, and arsenate, AsV, are the predominant oxidation states under, respectively, redu...
متن کاملArsenic and inorganic arsenic compounds
Arsenic, arsenic trioxide and pentoxide, arsenous acids, arsenic acid and their salts (arsenites and arsenates) are carcinogenic substances (Carcinogen category 1) and do not, therefore, have MAK and BAT values (Greim 2002). The former TRK value (technical exposure limit) for arsenic and its inorganic compounds was 0.10 mg arsenic/m (measured as the inhalable fraction of the aerosol; calculated...

متن کاملCardiac toxicity of arsenic trioxide
tion of Karpas 299 cells with immobilized antibodies to CD30 was found to potently induce cell death, whereas in the same experiment the addition of these antibodies in their soluble form did not induce cell death and actually slightly enhanced viability (Figure 1). Also noteworthy is the fact that, in the earlier report by Gruss et al4 in which the cytotoxic effects of M44 and M67 were origina...
