| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Although serial cases of cholangiocarcinoma found in an offset printing factory suggest that 1,2-dichloropropane (DCP) is the causative agent for them, the past bioassay studies did not show cholangiocarcinoma. The present study showed difficulty in explaining the species difference in susceptibility to DCP by distribution of glutathione S-transferase. Moreover the study is the first to demonstrate that exposure to DCP induce proliferation and apoptosis of cholangiocytes, as well as contribution of P450 to such effects. The present study strongly indicates that DCP is the causative agent for cholangiocarcinoma.
