Pyruvate remediation of cell stress and genotoxicity induced by haloacetic acid drinking water disinfection by‐productsEnvironmental and Molecular Mutagenesis - Tập 54 Số 8 - Trang 629-637 - 2013

Monohaloacetic acids (monoHAAs) are a major class of drinking water disinfection by‐products (DBPs) and are cytotoxic, genotoxic, mutagenic, and teratogenic. We propose a model of toxic action based on monoHAA‐mediated inhibition of glyceraldehyde‐3‐phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) as a target cytosolic enzyme. This model predicts that GAPDH inhibition by the monoHAAs will lead to a severe ...... hiện toàn bộ
Mutations induced by (−)‐anti‐11R,12S‐dihydrodiol 13S,14R‐epoxide of dibenzo[a,l]pyrene in the coding region of the hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase (Hprt) gene in Chinese hamster V79 cellsEnvironmental and Molecular Mutagenesis - Tập 41 Số 2 - Trang 131-139 - 2003

AbstractThe polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon dibenzo[a,l]pyrene (DB[a,l]P) is an exceptionally potent carcinogen. Its direct DNA‐reactive metabolite, the fjord region (−)‐anti‐11R,12S‐dihydrodiol 13S,14... hiện toàn bộ
Cytogenetic analyses of mice exposed to dichloromethaneEnvironmental and Molecular Mutagenesis - Tập 15 Số 4 - Trang 221-228 - 1990
James W. Allen, Andrew D. Kligerman, James A. Campbell, Barbara Westbrook‐Collins, Gregory L. Erexson, Frank W. Kari, Errol Zeiger
AbstractChromosome damage was studied in female B6C3F1 mice exposed to dichloromethane (DCM) by subcutaneous or inhalation treatments. No increase in the frequency of either sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs) or chromosome aberrations (CAs) in bone marrow cells was observed after a single subcutaneous injection of 2,500 or 5,000 mg/kg DCM. Inhalation exposure to DCM...... hiện toàn bộ
DNA damage in Pakistani agricultural workers exposed to mixture of pesticidesEnvironmental and Molecular Mutagenesis - Tập 50 Số 1 - Trang 37-45 - 2009
Javed A. Bhalli, Tayyaba Ali, Muhammad Rafiq Asi, Zafar M. Khalid, Marcello Ceppi, Qaiser M. Khan
AbstractA cross‐sectional study was designed to determine whether occupational exposure to a complex mixture of pesticides results in a significant increase of DNA damage in farmers chronically exposed to pesticides in open fields. Leukocytes from 47 agriculture workers exposed to pesticides and 50 controls were evaluated with comet assay. Workers recruitment was b...... hiện toàn bộ
Conditions for detecting the mutagenicity of divalent metals in Salmonella typhimuriumEnvironmental and Molecular Mutagenesis - Tập 19 Số 2 - Trang 139-146 - 1992
Dennis A. Pagano, Errol Zeiger
AbstractThe mutagenesis of metals in bacteria, as reported in the literature, can best be described as inconsistent. We report that cobalt chloride (Co++), ferrous sulfate (Fe++), manganese sulfate (Mn++), cadmium chloride (Cd++), and zinc chloride (Zn++) could ...... hiện toàn bộ
Use of the microscreen phage‐induction assay to assess the genotoxicity of 14 hazardous industrial wastesEnvironmental and Molecular Mutagenesis - Tập 11 Số 1 - Trang 13-29 - 1988
Virginia S. Houk, David M. DeMarini
AbstractThe Microscreen phage‐induction assay, which quantitatively measures the induction of prophage λ in Escherichia coli WP2s(λ), was used to test 14 crude (unfractionated) hazardous industrial waste samples for genotoxic activity in the presence and absence of metabolic activation. Eleven of the 14 wastes induced...... hiện toàn bộ
