OBJECTIVE
Cholestasis contributes to hepatocellular injury and promotes liver carcinogenesis. We created a mouse model of chronic cholestasis to study its effects on progression of cholangiocarcinoma and the oncogenes involved.
METHODS
To induce chronic cholestasis, Balb/c mice were given 2 weekly
Furan serves as an intermediate in the synthesis and preparation of numerous linear polymers used to prepare temperature-resistant structural laminates and to prepare copolymers used in machine dishwashing products as alternatives to phosphorus- and nitrogen-containing detergents. Toxicology and
DIOXIN TOXIC EQUIVALENCY FACTOR EVALUATION OVERVIEW: Polyhalogenated aromatic hydrocarbons such as 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) have the ability to bind to and activate the ligand-activated transcription factor, the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR). Structurally related compounds that

Furfural is used as a precursor for the manufacture of furan, furfuryl alcohol, tetrahydrofuran, and their derivatives and as an industrial solvent. Furfural is also present in numerous processed food and beverage products. NTP Toxicology and Carcinogenesis studies were conducted by administering
Estragole is a natural organic compound that is used as an additive, flavoring agent, or fragrance in a variety of food, cleaning, and cosmetic products; as an herbal medicine; as an antimicrobial agent against acid-tolerant food microflora; and to produce synthetic anise oil. Estragole was
Cholangiofibrosis is a structural anomaly that precedes the development of cholangiocarcinoma in some rodent models. In this article, the authors examine the contribution of the epithelial and mesenchymal cells in the pathogenesis of this complex lesion. Furan was administered to rats by gavage in
