Colon Transcriptomics Reveals Sex-Dependent Metabolic Signatures in Response to 2-Amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine Treatment in C57BL/6N Mice
Abstract:Diets high in red meats, particularly meats cooked at high temperature, increase the risk of colon cancer due to a production of heterocyclic aromatic amines (HAAs). Of the identified HAAs, 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (PhIP) is the most mass abundant colon carcinogen in charred meat or fish. Here, we comprehensively examined sex-dependent colon transcriptome signatures in response to PhIP treatment to identify biological discrepancies. Eight-week-old male and female C57BL/6N mice were intra… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
