| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Arsenite exposure has been known to induce liver cancer. Our previous study revealed that gestational arsenite exposure induced hepatic tumor increase in C3H F1 and F2 male mice, however, the mechanisms remain unknown. In this study, our data suggested that the gestational arsenite exposure-induced cellular senescence in F1 and F2 hepatic tumors via reduction of antioxidative enzymes and activation of Tgf-β pathway, respectively, are involved in hepatic tumor increase.
