Disruption of Cell Cycle Kinetics by Benzo[a]pyrene: Inverse Expression Patterns of BRCA-1 and p53 in MCF-7 Cells Arrested in S and G2

The effects of a ligand of the aromatic hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), benzo[a]pyrene(B[a]P), and its metabolite, BPDE (7r,8t-dihydroxy-9t,10t-epoxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydro-benzo[a]pyrene), on BRCA-1 levels and cell cycle kinetics were determined in MCF-7 breast cancer cells. Exposure of asynchronous MCF-...
