Assessment of Occupational Genotoxic Risk in the Production of Rubber Tyres [PDF]
The Annals of Occupational Hygiene, 2006 A broad spectrum of substances is used in the rubber industry, many of them being genotoxic and/or carcinogenic. Convincing evidence of an excess of certain forms of cancer among rubber workers has been provided. The objective of this study was to determine the genotoxic effects in a group of individuals engaged in the production of rubber tyres from a

Assessment of Occupational Genotoxic Risk among Brazilian Hairdressers [PDF]
The Annals of Occupational Hygiene, 2008 To evaluate the genotoxic risk to hairdressers exposed daily to chemical substances such as hair dyes, waving and straightening preparations and manicurists' products by the Comet assay test (single-cell gel electrophoresis).The Comet assay was performed on blood samples from 69 female hairdressers (36.4 +/- 10.7 years old) currently employed in 21 ...

MITF maintains genome stability in nonmelanocyte lineages
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.MITF is essential for melanocyte survival and acts as an oncogene in 10%–20% of melanomas. We show that MITF depletion causes genome instability in nonmelanocytic cells, leading to LATS2‐mediated P53 activation, cell cycle arrest, and apoptosis. This study highlights the role of MITF as a genome maintenance factor beyond the melanocyte lineage. Created

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Interferon type 1 (IFN‐1) production and signaling is associated with the acquisition of therapy resistance, following chronic DNA damage, via Interferon‐related DNA damage resistance signature (IRDS) gene expression. An alternative, DNA damage‐independent role of sustained IFN‐1 mediated resistance was identified and characterized by the emergence of ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.The cell‐autonomous roles of interferon type 1 vary based on duration and intensity. While acute, robust signaling results in cancer cell cytotoxic effects, sustained, low‐level signaling is associated with tumor‐promoting effects. This review summarizes current research of IFN‐1 in cancer and within the clinical setting, with an emphasis on female ...
