Molecular Aspects of Medicine, 2003
Since previous investigations on the genotoxicity of 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE) were carried out with prokaryotic systems or eukaryotic cell lines which may not adequately reflect the response of cells in vivo due to differences in the metabolism, the genotoxic potential of HNE was further evaluated in primary cells (hepatocytes) and cell clones of ...

Mutation Research/Reviews in Genetic Toxicology, 1985
Selenium at nutritional levels has been shown to have numerous anticarcinogenic or preventative effects against carcinogen-induced breast, colon, liver and skin cancer in animals. Many of these anticarcinogenic effects have been summarized. In addition, numerous mutagenic and antimutagenic effects of selenium compounds have been reported.

The assessment of the potential of a new drug to cause genotoxicity is a prerequisite for its progression to clinical development. This chapter gives a concise overview of the major aspects relating to genotoxicity, which are relevant in small molecule drug discovery. Testing schemes and assays recommended by regulatory guidelines are outlined.

Bacterial mutagenesis assays have been used as preliminary screens for the evaluation of chemicals because they are rapid, simple, and are correlated with carcinogeneity in humans (1). The activation of bacterial DNA repair systems (recently reviewed; 2,3) can be used as a measure of mutagenic and genotoxic effects of various chemical as well as ...

Overview of genotoxic carcinogens and non-genotoxic carcinogens
Experimental and Toxicologic Pathology, 1992It is known that carcinogens designated on the basis of longterm animal test results are extremely diverse in character, both in terms of potencies and the mechanism of action, which leads to complexity in their assessment for cancer risk to humans. The classification of carcin0ogens into two categories, namely, genotoxic and non-genotoxic varieties ...

Genotoxicity and genotoxic enhancing effect of tetrandrine in Salmonella typhimurium
Mutation Research/Genetic Toxicology, 1989Tetrandrine has been used for the treatment of silicosis in China. The potential genotoxic and carcinogenic hazards of this drug were studied using the Salmonella/histidine reversion assay and the SOS/Umu test. The results show that tetrandrine was weakly mutagenic to Salmonella typhimurium TA98 with metabolic activation and did not induce SOS response.

Genotoxicity and anti-genotoxicity of some traditional medicinal herbs
Mutation Research/Genetic Toxicology and Environmental Mutagenesis, 2005Six herbal infusions used worldwide (Matricaria chamomilla, Tilia cordata, Mentha piperita, Mentha pulegium, Uncaria tomentosa and Valeriana officinalis) were assayed for anti-genotoxicity using the Somatic Mutation And Recombination Test (SMART) in Drosophila melanogaster.

Interaction and distinction of genotoxic and non-genotoxic events in carcinogenesis
Toxicology Letters, 1992Multistage carcinogenesis involves genotoxic as well as non-genotoxic mechanisms. The importance of genotoxic events in human carcinogenesis is apparent from the analysis of tumours: for example, five to six genetic alterations can be found in most malignant colorectal tumours. While such measurable "footprints" (e.g. ras, p53 mutations) can be left in

Genotoxicity evaluation of trimethylbenzenes
Mutation Research/Genetic Toxicology and Environmental Mutagenesis, 1998The three trimethyl isomers of benzene (hemimellitene, 1,2,3-TMB; pseudocumene, 1,2,4-TMB and mesitylene, 1,3,5-TMB) were investigated for different genotoxicity endpoints: in vitro, in the Ames test with Salmonella typhimurium TA97a, TA98, TA100 and TA102 strains in the presence and absence of rat liver S9 metabolic activation; in vivo, in the ...

Transplacental genotoxicity of diethylstilbestrol
Carcinogenesis, 1991Diethylstilbestrol (DES) is a transplacental carcinogen in humans and in rodents. As part of an attempt to examine the mechanism of transplacental carcinogenesis, the transplacental genotoxity of this stilbene estrogen has been investigated. Pregnant hamsters received single injections of 200 mg/kg DES on the 10th day of gestation and were killed 5 or ...
