Benzo(e)pyrene appeared to reduce the incidence of carcinomas from 65% (benzo(a)pyrene alone) to 40% (benzo(a)pyrene plus benzo(e)pyrene). However, the incidence of sarcoma in tracheal and peritracheal explants was enhanced two- to three-fold by benzo(e)pyrene given with benzo(a)pyrene compared with benzo(a)pyrene alone. ().
