Aryl Hydrocarbon (Benzopyrene) Hydroxylase Is Stimulated in Human Lymphocytes by Mitogens and Benz[ a ]anthracene

Abstract
A mixed-function oxidase that requires reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate, is carbon monoxide sensitive, and is drug-metabolizing is present in human lymphocytes and is increased to different levels by treatment with phytohemagglutinin, pokeweed mitogen, and a polycyclic hydrocarbon.
