Environmental chemicals and the tumor immune microenvironment

iMeta, EarlyView.
Impact of representative environmental chemicals on tumor immune microenvironment (TIME). Representative environmental chemicals are ubiquitously distributed across air, soil, aquatic systems, and biota. These toxicants enter the human body via multiple exposure routes, including inhalation, dietary intake, and dermal absorption, subsequently ...

Targeting the intratumoral microbiota to overcome cancer immunotherapy resistance

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
This review delineates the mechanisms of intratumoral microbiota in cancer immunotherapy resistance, and offers strategies for microbiota‐targeted precision immunotherapy. Abstract Cancer remains a significant global health threat. The tumor microenvironment (TME) is a sophisticated ecological niche that exerts a pivotal effect on treatment outcomes ...

Paternal Exposure to the Neonicotinoid Pesticide Clothianidin Alters Sperm MicroRNA Profiles in Mice and Intergenerationally Reduces Locomotor Activity in Male Offspring

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Accumulating evidence suggests that paternal environmental factors have epigenetic effects on sperm and influence offspring. Neonicotinoid pesticides (NNs), which are widely used around the world, are known to affect offspring phenotypes through maternal exposure in mice, but the effect of the paternal exposure remains unknown.

Immunomodulation of the Prostate Tumor Microenvironment Following Inorganic Arsenic Exposure

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The tumor microenvironment (TME) influences prostate cancer (PCa) progression through stromal and immune interactions. Adipose‐derived mesenchymal stromal cells (ASCs) modulate immune tone, while inorganic arsenic (iAs), a widespread toxicant, is linked to immune suppression and carcinogenesis.

Bisphenol A Induces DNA Damage and Differential Cytotoxicity in Thyroid Cells: High‐Dose Effects Challenge Regulatory Thresholds

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bisphenol A (BPA), a ubiquitous environmental endocrine disruptor, has been implicated in carcinogenesis; however, its effects on thyroid cells remain unclear. This study investigated BPA‐induced cytotoxicity and genotoxicity in thyroid cell lines, including normal follicular (Nthy‐ori 3‐1), papillary carcinoma (TPC‐1 and BCPAP) and anaplastic

Evaluation of DNA/Chromosome Integrity and Cell Death in Human Metabolically Noncompetent and Competent Cells Exposed to N′‐(3,5‐Difluorobenzylidene)Pyridine‐4‐Carbohydrazide

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The N‐acylhydrazone scaffold is recognized as a privileged structure for the design of bioactive substances with increasing applications in medicinal chemistry research. Ensuring the safety of newly developed molecules is a critical step for both human health and environmental protection. Accordingly, this study aimed to evaluate the cytotoxic

Cellular Responses to Tartrazine and Sulfanilic Acid Exposure in BEAS‐2B Cells: Viability, Apoptosis, and DNA Damage

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tartrazine is a synthetic azo dye widely used in food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic products, resulting in extensive human exposure, while its toxicity and that of its primary metabolite, sulfanilic acid, remain controversial. Considering the reported association of tartrazine with hypersensitivity and allergic‐like reactions, human bronchial ...
