Role of P450 1A1 and P450 1A2 in Bioactivation versus Detoxication of the Renal Carcinogen Aristolochic Acid I: Studies in <i>Cyp1a1(−/−)</i>, <i>Cyp1a2(−/−)</i>, and <i>Cyp1a1/1a2(−/−)</i> Mice

Abstract excerpt
Exposure to aristolochic acid I (AAI) is associated with aristolochic acid nephropathy, Balkan endemic nephropathy, and urothelial cancer. Individual differences in xenobiotic-metabolizing enzyme activities are likely to be a reason for interindividual susceptibility to AA-induced disease. We evaluated the reductive activation and oxidative detoxication of AAI by cytochrome P450 (P450) 1A1 and 1A2 using the...
