Review of Transcriptomic Biomarkers That Predict In Vitro Genotoxicity in Human Cell Lines

open access: yesEnvironmental and Molecular Mutagenesis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The current genotoxicity testing paradigm provides little mechanistic information, has poor specificity in predicting carcinogenicity in humans, and is not suited to assessing a large number of chemicals. Genomic technologies enable the characterization of genome‐wide transcriptional changes in response to chemical treatments that can inform ...

An Enhanced Metabolization Protocol for In Vitro Genotoxicity Assessment of N‐Nitrosamines in Mammalian Cells

open access: yesEnvironmental and Molecular Mutagenesis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT N‐Nitrosamines (NAs) are probable human carcinogens and were detected as impurities in pharmaceuticals, which led to a concern for human health. NAs require metabolic activation before they become mutagenic, and not all NAs are mutagenic since their reactivity is related to their structure.

Intestinal microbiome alterations in pediatric epilepsy: Implications for seizures and therapeutic approaches

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract The intestinal microbiome plays a pivotal role in maintaining host health through its involvement in gastrointestinal, immune, and central nervous system (CNS) functions. Recent evidence underscores the bidirectional communication between the microbiota, the gut, and the brain and the impact of this axis on neurological diseases, including ...

Differential biotransformation ability may alter fish biodiversity in polluted waters

open access: yesEnvironment International
Divergence in the activity of biotransformation pathways could lead to species sensitivity differences to chemical stress. To explore this hypothesis, we evaluated the biotransformation capacity of five fish species representative of Swiss biodiversity ...
