Title Occurrence of two different types of glutathione S-transferase placental form-positive hepatocytes after a single administration of 2,3,7,8-tetrabromodibenzo-p-dioxin in rats
Bibliographic information May 2008, Vol.46, No.3, p.281-288. Illus. 40 ref.
Abstract Occurrence of glutathione S-transferase placental form (GST-P)-positive hepatocytes was examined, using 15 Wistar rats of both sexes each orally administered 2,3,7,8-tetrabromo-dibenzo-p-dioxin (TBDD) by gavage at a single dose of 0, 10, 30, 100 or 300 µ/kg body weight. Liver tissues were stained with anti-GST-P antibody. The characteristics of the two types of GST-P-positive hepatocytes which were found in the TBDD-dosed rat are discussed.
