1994 journal article

Hepatic cadmium, metal-binding proteins and bioaccumulation in bluegills exposed to aqueous cadmium

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 13(4), 553–562.

By: W. Cope*, G. Atchison* & J. Wiener*

author keywords: BIOACCUMULATION; CADMIUM; LEPOMIS-MACROCHIRUS; METAL-BINDING PROTEIN; METALLOTHIONEIN
TL;DR: Nonthionein cytosolic Cd, hepatic MBP, and whole-body Cd in bluegills were linearly related to exposure concentrations within the range 0 to 20 μg Cd per liter, which was the most sensitive indicator of Cd exposure. (via Semantic Scholar)

1994 journal article

Effect of the plant compound indole-3-carbinol on hepatic cholesterol homoeostasis

Food and Chemical Toxicology, 32(7), 633–639.

By: G. Le Blanc n, J. Stuart n, S. Dunn n & W. Baldwin n

MeSH headings : Animals; Cholesterol / blood; Cholesterol / chemistry; Cholesterol 7-alpha-Hydroxylase / metabolism; Homeostasis / drug effects; Indoles / pharmacology; Liver / chemistry; Liver / drug effects; Male; Mice; Microsomes, Liver / chemistry; Microsomes, Liver / drug effects; Sterol Esterase / metabolism; Sterol O-Acyltransferase / metabolism
TL;DR: I3C lowers serum cholesterol levels at concentrations that have no discernible effect on hepatic cholesterol homoeostasis, and at higher doses of I3C, hepatic microsomal cholesterol levels are significantly lowered and ACAT activity is significantly elevated. (via Semantic Scholar)

1994 journal article

Splicing defective mutants of the COXI gene of yeast mitochondrial DNA: Initial definition of the maturase domain of the group II intron AI2

Nucleic Acids Research, 22(11), 2057–2064.

By: J. Moran*, K. Mecklenburg*, P. Sass*, S. Belcher*, D. Mahnke*, A. Lewin*, P. Perlman*

Contributors: J. Moran*, K. Mecklenburg*, P. Sass*, S. Belcher*, D. Mahnke*, A. Lewin*, P. Perlman*

MeSH headings : Base Sequence; DNA, Fungal; DNA, Mitochondrial / genetics; Electron Transport Complex IV / genetics; Endoribonucleases / metabolism; Genes, Fungal; Genetic Complementation Test; Introns; Molecular Sequence Data; Mutation; Nucleotidyltransferases / metabolism; Open Reading Frames; RNA Splicing / genetics; RNA, Fungal; Restriction Mapping; Saccharomyces cerevisiae / genetics
TL;DR: Six mutations blocking the function of a seven intron form of the mitochondrial gene encoding subunit I of cytochrome c oxidase (COXI) and mapping upstream of exon 3 were isolated and characterized and a trans-recessive mutant confirms that the intron 1 reading frame encodes a maturase function.

1994 journal article

In vivo biotransformation of testosterone by phase I and II detoxication enzymes and their modulation by 20-hydroxyecdysone in Daphnia magna

Aquatic Toxicology, 29(1-2), 103–117.

author keywords: TESTOSTERONE; DAPHNIA-MAGNA; OXIDATION; CONJUGATION; 20-HYDROXYECDYSONE
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that daphnids can convert polycyclic compounds to multiple polar and nonpolar metabolites resulting from both phase I and phase II biotransformations, and that some phase II activities are under the regulatory control of 20-hydroxyecdysone. (via Semantic Scholar)

MeSH headings : Animals; Biological Evolution; Ecosystem; Environmental Pollutants / pharmacology; Humans
TL;DR: Emphasis needs to be placed on assessing the adverse effects of environmental pollutants on ecosystem structure and function in order to avoid subsequent evolutionary consequences. (via Semantic Scholar)

Hepatic vectorial transport of xenobiotics

Chemico-Biological Interactions, 90(2), 101–120.

By: G. LeBlanc n

author keywords: TRANSPORT; TRANSFER; XENOBIOTICS; INFLUX; EFFLUX; LIVER
MeSH headings : 3-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenases / metabolism; 3-alpha-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase (B-Specific); ATP Binding Cassette Transporter, Subfamily B, Member 1; Animals; Biological Transport, Active; Carrier Proteins / metabolism; Cell Membrane / metabolism; Cell Nucleus / metabolism; Fatty Acid-Binding Protein 7; Fatty Acid-Binding Proteins; Glutathione Transferase / metabolism; Humans; Liver / drug effects; Liver / metabolism; Membrane Glycoproteins / metabolism; Neoplasm Proteins; Tumor Suppressor Proteins; Xenobiotics / pharmacokinetics; Xenobiotics / toxicity
TL;DR: The vectorial transport of xenobiotics across the hepatocyte is mediated by various transport and transfer proteins that differ in ligand specificity and function, which will significantly advance the understanding of processes involved in xenobiotic toxicity and acquired resistance to chemical toxicity.

Hypocholesterolemic properties of plant indoles

Biochemical Pharmacology, 47(2), 359–364.

By: S. Dunn n & G. LeBlanc n

author keywords: INDOLE-3-CARBINOL; CHOLESTEROL; ACYL-COA-CHOLESTEROL ACYLTRANSFERASE
MeSH headings : Animals; Anticholesteremic Agents / pharmacology; Cholesterol, LDL / blood; Cholesterol, VLDL / blood; Down-Regulation; Glucosinolates / pharmacology; Indoles / chemical synthesis; Indoles / isolation & purification; Indoles / pharmacology; Mice; Microsomes, Liver / drug effects; Microsomes, Liver / enzymology; Plants / chemistry; Sterol O-Acyltransferase / antagonists & inhibitors; Sterol O-Acyltransferase / metabolism
TL;DR: I3C lowered serum LDL/VLDL cholesterol levels in mice, and this effect was likely mediated by the inhibition of ACAT by some of the acid condensation products of I3C, which provide a possible mechanism by which I 3C-rich vegetables lower serum cholesterol levels. (via Semantic Scholar)
