2-Amino-3-methylimadazo[4,5-f]quinoline (IQ) induces cytochrome P450 1A through the canonical AhR-XRE pathway in human hepatocytes.

Heterocyclic aromatic amines (HAAs) are procarcinogens formed during the cooking of meat and fish and could potentially contribute to hepatocellular carcinoma. Although several HAAs are classified as possible or probable human carcinogens, most mechanistic studies have relied on rodent models, despite well-documented i...
