Carcinogen

A carcinogen is any agent that promotes the development of cancer. 7,12-Dimethylbenz(a)anthracene and carcinogen are carcinogens.

See 7,12-Dimethylbenz(a)anthracene and Carcinogen

Immunosuppression

Immunosuppression is a reduction of the activation or efficacy of the immune system.

See 7,12-Dimethylbenz(a)anthracene and Immunosuppression

Sigma-Aldrich

Sigma-Aldrich (formally MilliporeSigma) is an American chemical, life science, and biotechnology company owned by the multinational chemical conglomerate Merck Group Sigma-Aldrich was created in 1975 by the merger of Sigma Chemical Company and Aldrich Chemical Company.

Tumor initiation

Tumor initiation is defined as "a process in which normal cells are changed so that they are able to form tumors".

See 7,12-Dimethylbenz(a)anthracene and Tumor initiation

Tumor promotion is a process in carcinogenesis by which various factors permit the descendants of a single initiated cell to survive and expand in number, i.e. to resist apoptosis and to undergo clonal growth.

See 7,12-Dimethylbenz(a)anthracene and Tumor promotion

12-O-Tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate

12-O-Tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), also commonly known as tetradecanoylphorbol acetate, tetradecanoyl phorbol acetate, and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) is a diester of phorbol. 7,12-Dimethylbenz(a)anthracene and 12-O-Tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate are carcinogens.
