Cadmium, carcinogen, co-carcinogen and anti carcinogen [PDF]
As a stress agent, inducing apoptosis and blocking it, Cd can have both helpful and harmful effects. The atmosphere is a thin envelope which makes the worid a global village. Cd is the most toxic metal in air. As both the first and second messenger of the stress response, it is synergistically toxic with all other stressors, including many other ...

Oxidative Stress in the Carcinogenicity of Chemical Carcinogens [PDF]
This review highlights several in vivo studies utilizing non-genotoxic and genotoxic chemical carcinogens, and the mechanisms of their high and low dose carcinogenicities with respect to formation of oxidative stress. Here, we survey the examples and discuss possible mechanisms of hormetic effects with cytochrome P450 inducers, such as phenobarbital, a-

Immunomodulatory role of black tea in the mitigation of cancer induced by inorganic arsenic [PDF]
We present a model analysis of the tumor and normal cell growth under the influence of a carcinogenic agent, an immunomdulator (IM) and variable influx of immune cells including relevant interactions. The tumor growth is facilitated by carcinogens such as inorganic arsenic while the IM considered here is black tea (Camellia sinesnsis).

Threshold in Carcinogenicity of Genotoxic Carcinogens [PDF]
Nowadays the idea of threshold in the carcinogenicity of chemical carcinogens has attracted interest in the field of carcinogenesis. With genotoxic agents there is considerable experimental evidence in support of the idea. Here, we report on the low dose carcinogenicity in rats observed with heterocyclic amines contained in cooked food, 2-amino-3,8 ...

The Carcinogenicity of Chromium [PDF]
The carcinogenicity of chromium compounds is reviewed with specific attention to the gaps in knowledge for risk estimation and research needs. The most important problems at present are whether trivalent chromium compounds cause cancer, and whether there is a difference in cancer causing effects between the soluble and the slightly soluble hexavalent ...

Carcinogenicity of chloroform. [PDF]
Chloroform is carcinogenic in rats, mice, and probably in dogs. Chloroform induced carcinomas of the liver and kidney and malignant tumors in other organs in rats and mice. Liver neoplasms have been described in three strains of mice. Carcinomas of the kidney were found in a first study in mice and in the repeat of that study.

The Carcinogenicity of Arsenic [PDF]
A carcinogenic role of inorganic arsenic has been suspected for nearly a century. Exposure to inorganic arsenic compounds occurs in some occupational groups, e.g., among smelter workers and workers engaged in the production and use of arsenic containing pesticides. Substantial exposure can also result from drinking water in certain areas and the use of

Carcinogenicity of saccharin. [PDF]
Saccharin is carcinogenic for the urinary bladder in rats and mice, and most likely is carcinogenic in human beings. The neoplasms of the urinary bladder are malignant and invade and metastasize. Male rats are more susceptible to urinary bladder carcinogenesis than female rats. Rats exposed as fetuses develop neoplasms more readily than rats exposed as

Detection of Illegal Kiln Activity During SMOG Period [PDF]
Brick Kilns are known to be a leading cause of air pollution. The toxins and gaseous emissions from brick kilns leads to SMOG. It is a mixture of invisible toxic gases such as carbon monoxide (CO), ozone (O$_3$), sulphur dioxide (SO$_2$) and particulate matter like soot and carcinogens.

The Carcinogenicity of Beryllium [PDF]
Beryllium, some of its alloys, and a variety of its compounds have induced malignant tumors of the lung and osteogenic sarcoma in experimental animals. Three animal species, monkeys, rabbits, and rats, have been shown to be susceptible. Beryllium induces morphological transformation in mammalian cells and enhances viral transformation of mammalian ...
