Evaluation of mutagenicity of zinc oxide nanoparticles by Pig-a mutation assay in vivo
ObjectiveThe genotoxicity of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) in rats was determined by Pig⁃a mutation assay in vivo.MethodsCombined with 28-day oral toxicity test, male SD rats were given ZnO NPs by oral administration for 28 days, at doses of 0, 14 ...

Modeling of dose-response relationships. [PDF]
The main dose-response models for chronic toxicity are considered. For dichotomous response, the log probit, multi-hit, and multistage models are presented. For time-to-occurrence response, the log-normal and three variations of multistage models are presented. Finally, the Cornfield hockey-stick model is considered, and, for low-dose extrapolation, it

Darbepoetin alfa given every 1 or 2 weeks alleviates anaemia associated with cancer chemotherapy. [PDF]
In part A of this study, patients were randomised to cohorts receiving darbepoetin alfa at doses of 0.5 to 8.0 m.c.g x kg(-1) x wk(-1) or to a control group receiving epoetin alfa at an initial dose of 150 U x kg(-1) three times weekly.

Dose-Response Relationships for Carcinogens: A Review [PDF]
We review the experimental evidence for various shapes of dose-response relationships for carcinogens and summarize those experiments that give the most information on relatively low doses. A brief review of some models is given to illustrate the shapes of dose-response curve expected from them.

Regions of beta 2 and beta 4 responsible for differences between the steady state dose-response relationships of the alpha 3 beta 2 and alpha 3 beta 4 neuronal nicotinic receptors [PDF]
We constructed chimeras of the rat beta 2 and beta 4 neuronal nicotinic subunits to locate the regions that contribute to differences between the acetylcholine (ACh) dose-response relationships of the alpha 3 beta 2 and alpha 3 beta 4 receptors ...

The effects of different alcoholic drinks on lipids, insulin and haemostatic and inflammatory markers in older men [PDF]
Light to moderate drinking is associated with lower risk of coronary heart (CHD) than non-drinkers. We have examined the relationships between total alcohol intake and type of alcoholic beverage and several potential biological mechanisms. We carried out

A Poisson Regression Model for Female Radium Dial Workers [PDF]
A Poisson regression model with interaction terms was applied to study the dose response relationship for radium-induced skeletal cancers. The model showed that the expected frequency count of bone tumors depended not only on the logarithmic dose and the

Dose-response relationship for breast cancer induction at radiotherapy dose
Purpose Cancer induction after radiation therapy is known as a severe side effect. It is therefore of interest to predict the probability of second cancer appearance for the patient to be treated including breast cancer.
