Cell cycle arrest, apoptosis and p53 expression in nickel(II) acetate- treated Chinese hamster ovary cells
1 Jul 1998
Abstract excerpt
Nickel(II) compounds are known human and animal carcinogens. In this study, the effects of nickel(II) acetate on cell cycle, apoptosis and p53 expression were investigated in order to unveil the elements of early cellular responses to the metal. Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells were grown for 72 h in Ham's F-12 medium containing 0, 40, 80, 160, 240, 320, 480 or 640 microM nickel(II) acetate. DNA fragmentation,...
