TP53 R249S mutation in hepatic organoids captures the predisposing cancer risk

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
The systematic approach in elucidating the gain‐of‐function (GOF) roles of TP53 mutations in early liver carcinogenesis. Unique downstream targets of TP53 L3 mutations were identified from chormatin immunoprecipitation sequencing in HCC cell lines, followed by a series of validation assays to substantiate the exclusive transcriptional regulations ...

Determination of the Aflatoxins [PDF]

Nature, 1964
Top of pageAbstract WE report a new chemical method for determining the aflatoxins and, in particular, aflatoxin B1. Previous methods have depended on the measurement of fluorescence1,2 and are subject to certain errors, for example, quenching by impurities.

Postweaning exposure to aflatoxin results in impaired child growth: A longitudinal study in Benin, west Africa [PDF]

, 2004
Aflatoxins are dietary contaminants that are hepatocarcinogenic and immunotoxic and cause growth retardation in animals, but there is little evidence concerning the latter two parameters in exposed human populations.

Exposure to aflatoxins and fumonisins and linear growth of children in rural Ethiopia : A longitudinal study

, 2021
Objective: We hypothesise that exposure to aflatoxins and fumonisins, measured in serum, alters protein synthesis, reducing serum protein and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), increasing inflammation and infection, leading to child's linear growth ...
