Participation of liver stem cells in cholangiocarcinogenesis after aflatoxin B exposure of glutathione S-transferase A3 knockout mice
Aflatoxin B 1 , arguably the most potent human carcinogen, induces liver cancer in humans, rats, trout, ducks, and so on, but adult mice are totally resistant. This resistance is because of a detoxifying enzyme, mouse glutathione S-transferase A3, which binds to and inactivates aflatoxin B 1 epoxide...
