20101389 Kawai M, Saegusa Y, Dewa Y, Nishimura J, Kemmochi S, Harada T, Ishii Y, Umemura T, Shibutani M, Mitsumori K: Elevation of cell proliferation via generation of reactive oxygen species by piperonyl butoxide contributes to its liver tumor-promoting effects in mice. Arch Toxicol. 2010 Feb;84(2):155-64. Epub 2010 Jan 26.

PBO also increased early response genes downstream of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), such as c-Myc that is induced by excessive ROS production, and G1/S transition-related genes, such as E2f1 and Ccnd1.

Early responsive genes downstream of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), such as c-fos, c-jun, c-myc, and activating transcription factor 3 (ATF3), were also up-regulated in this group.
