Schematic representation of the hypothesis proposed for the B[a]P-mediated metabolic flux redistribution. B[a]P exposure leads to the disturbance in the cellular redox state and hence to an increase in NADPH content of the cells by redirecting the metabolic flux towards the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP). It is indicated by the down-regulation of glycolytic proteins and an up-regulation of PPP proteins. The grey boxes represent the differentially regulated proteins identified by 2D BN/SDS-PAGE gel electrophoresis, whereas the pink boxes represent the metabolites identified by GC-MS analysis.
