Mouse spermatocytes express CYP2E1 and respond to acrylamide exposure.

PLoS ONE 9(5) , e94904, (2014)

Metabolism of xenobiotics by cytochrome P450s (encoded by the CYP genes) often leads to bio-activation, producing reactive metabolites that interfere with cellular processes and cause DNA damage. In t...

A dose of 0.99 mg d(3)-acrylamide (d(3)-AA) (13.2 μg/kg body weight) was ingested by a healthy male volunteer. Urine samples were collected over a period of 46 h after the intake and analyzed for the ...
