Nitropolycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (NPAHs) are derivatives of PAHs and contain one or more nitro functional groups (-NO2). Some NPAHs are classified as possible or probable human carcinogens and are more mutagenic than PAHs. Although the atmospheric c...

The dominant pathogenic model, somatic mutation theory (SMT), considers carcinogenesis as a ?genetic accident? due to the accumulation of ?stochastic? DNA mutations. This model was proposed and accepted by the scientific community when cancer mainly affe...
