phenobarbital and Carcinoma

phenobarbital has been researched along with Carcinoma in 14 studies

Phenobarbital: A barbituric acid derivative that acts as a nonselective central nervous system depressant. It potentiates GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID action on GABA-A RECEPTORS, and modulates chloride currents through receptor channels. It also inhibits glutamate induced depolarizations.
phenobarbital : A member of the class of barbiturates, the structure of which is that of barbituric acid substituted at C-5 by ethyl and phenyl groups.

Carcinoma: A malignant neoplasm made up of epithelial cells tending to infiltrate the surrounding tissues and give rise to metastases. It is a histological type of neoplasm and not a synonym for cancer.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Following chronic treatment, altered hepatic foci and adenomas were classified as: small-cell, heterogeneous basophilic lesions (spontaneous or tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin-induced); large-cell, homogeneous basophilic lesions (WY-14,643-induced); acidophilic lesions (phenobarbital- or chlordane-induced)."3.70Altered bcl-2 family expression during non-genotoxic hepatocarcinogenesis in mice. ( Anderson, SP; Cattley, RC; Christensen, JG; Corton, JC; Fox, TR; Goldsworthy, TL; Gonzales, AJ; Healy, LN; Malarkey, DE; Romach, EH, 1999)
"To investigate the role of monomethyltriazenes as the active metabolites of antitumor dimethyltriazenes, the in vivo simultaneous treatment with an inducer (phenobarbital, PB) or an inhibitor (carbon tetrachloride, CCl4) of hepatic drug metabolism was examined in mice bearing Lewis lung carcinoma."3.67Effects of an inducer and an inhibitor of hepatic metabolism on the antitumor action of dimethyltriazenes. ( Giraldi, T; Lassiani, L; Perissin, L; Sava, G; Zorzet, S, 1988)
" Dose-response studies of the capacity of 7,8-BF to inhibit DMBA tumor initiation revealed that 7,8-BF was an effective inhibitor at 2."1.26The effects of benzoflavones on polycyclic hydrocarbon metabolism and skin tumor initiation.
