Résumé : International audience
Aromatic amines and structurally related heterocyclic aromatic amines (HAAs) are produced during the combustion of tobacco or during the high-temperature cooking of meat. Exposure to some of these chemicals may contribute to the etiology of several common types of human cancers. 2-Amino-9H-pyrido[2,3-b]indole (AαC) is the most abundant HAA formed in mainstream tobacco smoke: it arises in amounts that are 25-100 times greater than the levels of the arylamine, 4-aminobiphenyl (4-ABP), a human carcinogen. 2-Amino-3,8-dimethylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoxaline (MeIQx) is a prevalent HAA formed in cooked meats. AαC and MeIQx are rodent carcinogens; however, their carcinogenic potency in humans is unknown. A preliminary assessment of the carcinogenic potential of these HAAs in humans was conducted by examining the capacity of primary human hepatocytes to form DNA adducts of AαC and MeIQx, in comparison to 4-ABP, followed by the kinetics of DNA adduct removal by cellular enzyme repair systems. The principal DNA adducts formed were N-(deoxyguanosin-8-yl) (dG-C8) adducts. Comparable levels of DNA adducts were formed with AαC and 4-ABP, whereas adduct formation was ∼5-fold lower for MeIQx. dG-C8-AαC and dG-C8-4-ABP were formed at comparable levels in a concentration-dependent manner in human hepatocytes treated with procarcinogens over a 10,000-fold concentration range (1 nM-10 μM). Pretreatment of hepatocytes with furafylline, a selective inhibitor of cytochrome P450 1A2, resulted in a strong diminution of DNA adducts signifying that P450 1A2 is a major P450 isoform involved in bioactivation of these procarcinogens. The kinetics of adduct removal varied for each hepatocyte donor. Approximately half of the DNA adducts were removed within 24 h of treatment; however, the remaining lesions persisted over 5 days. The high levels of AαC present in tobacco smoke and its propensity to form persistent DNA adducts in human hepatocytes suggest that AαC can contribute to DNA damage and the risk of hepatocellular cancer in smokers.

Résumé : "Emillio Pon's, a pioneer cigar manufacurer and an outstanding public servant , established the first cigar factory of local origin on this site in 1887. Here on October 17, 1894, Jose' Marti, the Cuban Patriot, made his last Ybor City revolutionary address from the readers pulpit amidst the wild acclaim of the Cuban tobacco workers. The final words of the prophtic speech were: "We shall triumph! Their hammer blows will be met by a destructive file of steel."

Résumé : This company built a new factory here in 1904 and moved its operation from New York into it. 400 workers produced brands Don Cosme, Jose Vila, La Sinceridad, La Evidencia, Marc Anthony, and Light It. The building was sold on May 22, 1910, to the Morgan Cigar Company.In 1914, Morgan expanded the factory to accommodate 1000 workers. They produced the brands Juan De Fuca, Independente, F. Lozano, Wall's Court and Don Sebastian.
