title: [Bioactivation of xenobiotics by cytochrome P-448 and its role in the process of carcinogenesis].
abstract: The paper presents the general data concerning cytochrome P-448, as well as its participation in the formation of oxygen radicals and active metabolic intermediates, originated during xenobiotics' oxidation. Also, induction of synthesis of cytochrome P-448 (aromatic hydrocarbons hydroxylase), along with the role this phenomenon plays in the initiation of neoplastic process, are discussed.
