The liver is an important target organ of TCEE. Substantial efforts and remarkable progress into understanding TCE cytotoxicity have been made in cultured liver cells. However, the molecular mechanisms by which TCE induces hepatotoxicity are not well understood.

As one of the possible mechanisms of POP-induced carcinogenesis, the 'Oxidative Stress' theory has been postulated. In this review, in order to reconsider the significance of 'Oxidative Stress' to POP-induced carcinogenesis, we focus on in vivo studies examining formation of 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OH -dG), a marker of oxidative DNA damage with mutagenic potential, after treatment of rodents with POPs. Some studies clearly demonstrated that 8-OH-dG levels in the liver DNA were increased by POP-treatments. These findings suggest that 'Oxidative Stress' could contribute as one factor to POP-induced carcinogenesis. Furthermore, we refer to other multiple biological changes caused by POP-treatment presumably contributing to the carcinogenic mechanisms, and consider possible roles of 'Oxidative Stress' in the carcinogenesis process展开更多
