Lymphocyte Micronucleus Formation Is Driven by Inflammation‐Induced Oxidative DNA Damage in Oesophageal Cancer Development

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Chromosomal instability is a hallmark of cancer, but minimally invasive ways to detect systemic DNA damage and cancer risk remain limited. Here, using patient blood samples, the authors investigated lymphocyte micronuclei (MN) frequency as a potential marker of DNA damage across the progression from gastroesophageal reflux disease to Barrett's ...

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

open access: yesJournal 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

Antifungal activity of extracts from Atacama Desert fungi againstParacoccidioides brasiliensis and identification ofAspergillus felis as a promising source of natural bioactive compounds

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2016
Fungi of the genus Paracoccidioides are responsible for paracoccidioidomycosis. The occurrence of drug toxicity and relapse in this disease justify the development of new antifungal agents.

On the Assembly of Actin Polymerization‐Powered Motors

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Actin polymerization‐powered motors have the highest speed when the actin recruiting‐polymerizing proteins are immobilized in polymer brushes on their surface. These motors orbit around larger tracer particles at pH above the isoelectric point of ActA but dock onto the tracer particles’ surface at lower pH. ABSTRACT Nano‐ and micromotors are a class of

Comparative Inhibitory Effects of Cytochalasins on the Gametangial Differentiation in Allomyces arbuscula

open access: yes, 1993
In contrast to cytochalasin D which selectively prevents differentiation of female gametangia, cytochalasins A, B and E also masculinizeAllomyces arbuscula by preventing septation between female and male gametangia, thereby allowing the dominant ...

Effects of cytochalasins on Neurospora crassa

open access: yes, 1980
Growth of various strains of Neurospora crassa in the continued presence of cytochalasins A and B results in the following pattern. At low concentration the drugs cause an increase in branching which, depending on the strain, may also reveal an increase ...

Preparation, In Vivo Administration, Dose-Limiting Toxicities, and Antineoplastic Activity of Cytochalasin B

open access: yesTranslational Oncology, 2015
An effective and inexpensive protocol for producing cytochalasins A and B is being disclosed to propose a viable method by which to examine the in vivo antineoplastic activity of these congeners in preclinical tumor-bearing mammalian models. In addition,

Untreated Hair Dye Effluents Enter the Environment: Are They a Threat to Human Health?

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The effluents generated during the process of hair dyeing exhibit a complex composition, comprising chemical compounds with varying toxicity levels. While the adverse impact of hair dyes on human health is acknowledged, there is a notable absence of studies addressing the toxicity associated with effluents produced during these activities. The
