ABSTRACT The present study aimed to quantify pesticide residues in environmental matrices and plasma and to evaluate their potential effects on oxidative stress and DNA damage in rural populations of Santa Fe province. Soil and rainwater samples were collected, and biological samples and semistructured surveys were obtained from volunteers in three ...

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

Detection of Hypoxia in Human Brain Tumor Xenografts Using a Modified Comet Assay
We used the standard comet assay successfully to generate in vitro dose-response curves under oxic and hypoxic conditions. We then made mixtures of cells that had been irradiated with 3 and 9 Gy of X-rays to simulate two subpopulations in a tumor, but ...

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

ABSTRACT Children, as a particularly vulnerable group, are more susceptible to these mutagens due to their developing immune systems, higher physiological vulnerability, and increased exposure through behaviors like outdoor play and hand‐to‐mouth activities. This review aims to investigate the relationship between these environmental exposures, genetic

Abstract Periodontitis is a long‐term condition affecting up to half of the population globally and causing significant impacts on life quality. Successful management depends on taking life‐long ownership of the condition by those affected. There is a wealth of research to inform on management options. However, most of the research has been designed by

The comet assay – how to recognise “good data”
Testing of potentially genotoxic materials currently involves use of in vitro assays such as the Ames test (gene mutations), the chromosome aberration assay and in vitro micronucleus assay (predominantly using human peripheral lymphocytes to detect ...
