Cytotoxic and Genotoxic Effects in Buccal Cells of Sandstone Quarry Workers

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mineral extraction poses significant occupational health risks, particularly from respirable crystalline silica exposure. Sandstone quarrying generates substantial dust, yet evidence of its genotoxic effects remains limited. This study investigated cytogenotoxic damage in sandstone quarry workers from southern Brazil using the buccal ...

Effects of Glyphosate and Glyphosate‐Based Herbicides on the Mammalian Gut Microbiome: A Critical Review

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glyphosate has long been considered to pose negligible direct risk to mammals on the grounds that its molecular target, 5‐enolpyruvylshikimate‐3‐phosphate synthase (EPSPS), of the shikimate pathway, is absent from animal cells. This rationale is inaccurate as a complete toxicological argument, because the shikimate pathway is present in some ...

Chinese provincial-level new records for 96 resident bird species reveal poleward range shifts

open access: yesAvian Research
Anthropogenic climate change is altering species distributions globally. While species distributions are expected to shift to higher latitudes and elevations under global warming, empirical evidence on distribution shifts is mixed, and factors mediating ...

Deciphering male influence in gynogenetic Pengze crucian carp (Carassius auratus var. pengsenensis): insights from Nanopore sequencing of structural variations

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics
In this study, we investigate gynogenetic reproduction in Pengze Crucian Carp (Carassius auratus var. pengsenensis) using third-generation Nanopore sequencing to uncover structural variations (SVs) in offspring.

Bee pollen as functional food and environmental bioindicator: current evidence and future challenges

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Bee pollen (BP), a plant‐derived product collected by honey bees, is increasingly promoted as a functional food due to its content of proteins, essential amino acids, lipids, vitamins, minerals, and bioactive compounds such as polyphenols and flavonoids.

Sampling and Interpreting Lichen Diversity Data for Biomonitoring Purposes

open access: yes, 2014
Although lichen diversity values are broadly used as bioindicators, mainly for air pollution, lichen communities can be substantially influenced by other ecological factors, such as tree species and forest structure, and microclimatic conditions.

Mass Spectrometry in Authentication and Forensic Approaches for Determining the Origin of Hazardous Chemicals

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Identification of a chemical agent yields insights into its physicochemical properties. By examining the intrinsic characteristics and environment of a compound, information about its history can be gathered. The main objective of authentication/forensic approaches to chemicals is to trace the history of the compound's origin, regardless of ...

Transplantation of Embryonic Cortical Tissue into Lesioned Adult Brain in Mice

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2017
Transplantation of embryonic cortical tissue for repairing the damaged brain has provided a potential therapy for brain injury and diseases. The grafted tissue can successfully survive and participate in reestablishing the functional neural circuit of ...

Toxicity Differences Between Microplastics and Nanoplastics in Organs: From Molecular Mechanisms to Potential Therapeutic Strategies

open access: yesMed Research, EarlyView.
This review systematically compares the size‐dependent toxicity of microplastics and nanoplastics in the intestine, liver, kidney, lung, and brain. Particle size determines bioavailability, barrier penetration, and injury mechanisms. Because of their small size and high surface reactivity, NPs readily cross the intestinal epithelium and blood–brain ...
