pubmed-article:10739068 | pubmed:abstractText | Toxicities of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) were tested on two strains of c-src deficient B6, 129-Src(tm 1 sor) mice, c-src -/+ and c-src -/- and their matched wild-type littermates c-src +/+ mice along with another c-src +/+ mice, from the same genetic lineage, B6, 129-Fos(tm 1 Pa) mice. The most conspicuous effect of c-src deficiency on the toxicity of TCDD appears to be the reduced hepatotoxicity. TCDD-treated c-src deficient mice show only modest degrees of hepatomegaly and triglycerides accumulation as compared to treated wild-type mice. | lld:pubmed |
