papilloma/triacylglycerol

Tumor promotion potential of diacylglycerol (DAG)-rich edible oil was examined using a two-stage mouse skin carcinogenesis model initiated with 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA). Topical treatment with 75 mg DAG oil once a day for 5 days/week for 35 weeks caused papillomas in 4 of 23 (17%)

Human milk bile salt-stimulated lipase ensures efficient utilization of triacylglycerol by breast-fed infants. Cloning and sequencing of cDNA have revealed that the peptide chain consists of 722 amino acid residues showing only little homology to typical lipases. The sequence is identical to that of

The N-terminal 17% of human apolipoprotein B (apoB-17) was expressed in murine C127 cells following transfection with a bovine papilloma virus-based expression vector. A permanent cell line overexpressing the expected 89-kDa protein was selected and characterized. Pulse-chase experiments showed that

A recent study using c-Ha-ras proto-oncogene transgenic (rasTg) rats demonstrated possible enhancing effects of diacylglycerol (DAG) on 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide (4NQO) induced carcinogenesis of the tongue. To assess effects in their Sprague-Dawley back strain, a two-stage carcinogenesis study using
