Exploring the Role of Acrylamide in Food Allergy via Dendritic Cell‐Dependent Th2 Immune Responses

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 1, January 2026.
Acrylamide may disrupt immune tolerance as a foodborne immunotoxicant, priming allergic inflammatory susceptibility through DC‐dependent Th2/Th17 polarization, TLR4/NF‐κB signaling amplification, and IL‐10 production suppression. ABSTRACT Acrylamide (AA), a prevalent food processing contaminant with recognized multi‐organ toxicity, has an unexplored ...

Codominance and toxins: A path to drugs of nearly unlimited selectivity [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
The effectiveness of drugs is often limited by their insufficient selectivity. I propose designs of therapeutic agents that address this problem. The key feature of these reagents, termed comtoxins (codominance-mediated toxins), is their ability to ...

Chemoresistance of renal cell carcinoma: 1986-1994 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Multidrug resistance (MDR) in a variety of human tumors such as renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is thought to be caused by expression of the mdr1 gene and may be reversed by applying chemosensitizers such as Dexverapamil that inhibit the mdr1 gene product P ...
