Gene expression changes induced by the human carcinogen aristolochic acid I in renal and hepatic tissue of mice

Abstract excerpt

Aristolochic acid (AA) is the causative agent of urothelial tumors associated with AA nephropathy and is also implicated in the development of Balkan endemic nephropathy-associated urothelial tumors. These tumors contain AA-characteristic TP53 mutations. We examined gene expression changes in Hupki (human TP53 knock-in) mice after treatment with aristolochic acid I (AAI) by gavage (5 mg/kg body weight). After 3,...
