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 ...

Aurora kinases orchestrate mitosis; who are the players?

Biomolecular Concepts, 2010
The Aurora are a conserved family of serine/threonine kinases with essential functions in cell division. In mitosis, Aurora kinases are required for chromosome segregation, condensation and orientation in the metaphase plate, spindle assembly, and the ...

The Impact of Genetic Polymorphisms on Genotoxicity (DNA Damage) Among Children Exposed to Environmental Mutagens: A Systematic Review

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
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

Dual Genotoxic and Antigenotoxic Effects of 3‐Benzoylcoumarins in Mammalian Cells

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Coumarins are phenolic compounds widely recognized for their diverse pharmacological activities and have attracted increasing attention as potential chemopreventive agents. In the present study, four known 3‐benzoylcoumarin derivatives [(1), (2), (3), and (4)] were evaluated for their cytotoxic, mutagenic, and antigenotoxic effects in Chinese ...

Metabolic control of cell division in α-proteobacteria by a NAD-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase

Communicative & Integrative Biology, 2016
Prior to initiate energy-consuming processes, such as DNA replication or cell division, cells need to evaluate their metabolic status. We have recently identified and characterized a new connection between metabolism and cell division in the α ...

Sodium sulfite can reliably induce chemical hypoxia without toxic effects in the model sea anemone species, Exaiptasia diaphana

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Climate change is accelerating the deoxygenation of aquatic ecosystems, so understanding its effects on biological processes is increasingly critical. An emerging method for inducing hypoxia during experimentation utilizes sodium sulfite (SSI) to scavenge oxygen; however, it remains unclear if hypoxia‐inducing concentrations of SSI are toxic ...

Cytokinesis: Regulated By Destruction [PDF]

Current Biology, 2002
Important transitions in the cell cycle are regulated by ubiquitin-dependent degradation of specific proteins. Recent data indicate that cytokinesis is also regulated by proteolysis.

In planta analysis of the mode of action of cinmethylin and confirmation of fatty acyl‐ACP thioesterases (FATs) as primary site of action

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
In planta analysis of the mode of action of cinmethylin and confirmation of fatty acyl‐ACP thioesterases (FATs) as primary site of action. Cinmethylin inhibits FATs, disrupting eukaryotic de novo lipid biosynthesis and causing defects in cell division, elongation and integrity. We confirm FATs as the primary site of action in planta.

Cortical flow aligns actin filaments to form a furrow

eLife, 2016
Cytokinesis in eukaryotic cells is often accompanied by actomyosin cortical flow. Over 30 years ago, Borisy and White proposed that cortical flow converging upon the cell equator compresses the actomyosin network to mechanically align actin filaments ...

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

Environmental 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
