A mechanism of haloalkene-induced renal carcinogenesis.
Several halogenated alkenes are nephrotoxic; some others induce renal tubular adenocarcinomas in rodents after lifelong administration. A bioactivation mechanism accounting for the organ-selective tumor induction has been elucidated: conjugation of the parent compounds with glutathione (GSH), cataly...
