The cytotoxic effects of two polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) (1-methyplyrene and perylene) were investigated on human skin keratinocytes. Normal human keratinocytes were cultured in the presence of various concentrations of 1-methylpyrene and perylene either alone or in combination. Following incubation

Twenty-eight base complementary oligonucleotides were synthesized with deoxyadenosine residues modified at the N6 position with 1-methylpyrene (MP) specifically positioned 3 bp apart in opposite DNA strands. Doubly modified constructs as well as non-modified and singly modified constructs were ligated into

The alkylated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon 1-methylpyrene is a carcinogen in rodents and has been detected in various environmental matrices and foodstuffs. It is activated metabolically by benzylic hydroxylation to 1-hydroxymethylpyrene followed by sulfoconjugation to yield electrophilic 1-sulfooxymethylpyrene (1-SMP) that is
