Results for Dioxin (TCDD)Increased level of adseverin/HPRT (human hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferse) mRNA in thymocytes and whole thymus; increased level of cytochrome P450 1A1 (CYP1A1)/HPRT mRNA in thymocytes, whole thymus and thymic stroma |
Subjects: C57BL/6 mice Chemical: Dioxin (TCDD) Low doses tested: 10 nM Route of administration: in vitro culture Exposure duration: gestational day 15 – single dose (comparable to human prenatal development from approximately day 1 of week 7 to day 1 of week 8) Age of measurement: 24 hours in culture |
