Benzo[b]fluoranthene Induces Mutation Accumulation and Cancer-Relevant Mutational Signatures in Mouse Lung Alongside Steady State Levels of Chromosome Damage in Blood. [PDF]

open access: yesEnviron Mol Mutagen
ABSTRACT Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are well‐known for their mutagenic and carcinogenic effects. Benzo[b]fluoranthene (BbF) is one of 16 PAHs prioritized by the US Environmental Protection Agency for toxicological evaluation due to pervasive human exposure.

Diversity‐Oriented Two‐Step Annulative π‐Extension Enables Access to Structurally Complex Nanographenes

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Pd‐catalyzed C–H arylation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) with various aryltrimethylsilanes enables the preparation of structurally complicated arylated PAHs, which can be further transformed to nanographenes in a manner of two‐step annulative π‐extension (APEX) reaction.

Cyclization of a 1,8‐Diphenylanthracene by Scholl Reactions to Form Five‐ and Seven‐Membered Ring Embedded Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Reactions of 10‐mesityl‐1,8‐diphenylanthracene with DDQ/TfOH produced three products via sequential formation of a five‐ or seven‐membered ring. Unexpectedly, the triply cyclized product with a rubicene substructure was formed through cyclization involving 1,2‐methyl shift.

Potential Neuroendocrine Disruption by Benzodiazepines and Its Impact on Male Fertility

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neuroactive substances have emerged as potent endocrine disruptors affecting male reproductive health through central and peripheral mechanisms. Among these, benzodiazepines, which are widely used for the management of anxiety, insomnia, epilepsy, and neuromuscular disorders, are known as GABA A (gamma‐aminobutyric acid type A) receptor ...

Organic and Inorganic Pollutants, Oxidative Stress Biomarkers, and Electrophoretic Protein Profiles in an Endangered Thresher Shark (Alopias vulpinus) From Southeastern Brazil: A Case Study

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A comprehensive screening of different environmental contaminants (total metals, thermostable metal fractions associated with detoxification, and persistent organic pollutants) was conducted in an endangered common thresher shark (Alopias vulpinus ) individual incidentally captured in southeastern Brazil.

Assessing the Health Impacts of Contaminants on Green Turtles (Chelonia mydas) Along the Southern Coast of Brazil

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chemical pollutants pose a significant threat to marine ecosystems. Among these contaminants are trace elements and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH). Green turtles can be employed to evaluate the oceans' health due to their coastal habitats and exposure to multiple threats.

Variation on Toxic and Inflammatory Potential of Coal Smoke of Different Sources From a Region With High Lung Cancer Risk

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Excess lung cancer risk in Xuanwei and Fuyuan, China, has been attributed to household air pollution from use of a locally sourced smoky (bituminous) coal. However, the carcinogenic mechanisms remain unclear. Given the important role of inflammation in lung cancer development, this study compared the proinflammatory potentials of the ...

Waste tyres pyrolysis oil (WTPO) as an alternative source of fuel and chemicals: a review

open access: yesZaštita Materijala
Waste tyres are dumped and common kind of abandon solid waste. Almost 3 billion tyres are produced each year and each tyre produced will eventually join the waste products and if not properly handled will become pollutant.

Interspecific Differences in the Effects on Embryos Between Freshwater and Marine Fish Exposed to Water‐Accommodated Fractions Derived From Very‐Low Sulfur Fuel Oil

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study evaluated the toxic effects of water‐accommodated fractions (WAFs) of very‐low sulfur fuel oil (VLSFO) on freshwater and marine fish embryos. Embryos of Japanese medaka (Oryzias latipes), Java medaka (Oryzias javanicus), and grass puffer (Takifugu alboplumbeus) were exposed to various concentrations of VLSFO‐WAF, and the effects on ...

Wildfire Ash Alters Freshwater Crustacean Behavior: Disentangling the Contributions of Suspended Macroparticles and Ash‐Induced Alkalinization

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change and anthropogenic ignitions are intensifying wildfire frequency worldwide, elevating the risk of freshwater contamination by ash. In water, dissolved ash releases ions and other toxic constituents that increase pH and alter physicochemical conditions, while suspended ash particles may impose mechanical stress, disrupt behavior ...
