title: Lindane mediated induction of cytochrome P-450 mRNA in rat liver: studies with a nonradioactive cDNA probe.
abstract: Effect of lindane on the induction of cytochrome P-450 mRNA in rat liver was studied using a biotinylated cDNA probe. Exposure to lindane resulted in an increase in the levels of P-450 mRNA. The observed increase in mRNA was maximal (5-6-fold) after 18 hr of lindane treatment and lesser (50%) than mediated by phenobarbital for the same duration.
