In vivo and in vitro mutagenicity of perillaldehyde and cinnamaldehyde [PDF]
Background Perillaldehyde and cinnamaldehyde are natural substances found in plants that are used as flavoring ingredients. Due to the α,β-unsaturated aldehydes in their structures, these compounds are expected to be DNA reactive. Indeed, several reports

Benchmark Response (BMR) Values for In Vivo Mutagenicity Endpoints. [PDF]
ABSTRACTThe benchmark dose (BMD) approach constitutes the most effective and pragmatic strategy for the derivation of a point of departure (PoD) for comparative potency analysis, risk assessment, and regulatory decision‐making. There is considerable controversy regarding the most appropriate benchmark response (BMR) for genotoxicity endpoints.

In Vitro versus In Vivo Metabolic Activation of Mutagens [PDF]
Mutagenicity testing is beginning to find a place as a factor in evaluation of the safety of compounds to which the human population is exposed. The mutation systems selected for such tests should ideally involve in vivo studies with mammals and encompass scoring of a broad spectrum of mutational events including both transmissible chromosome ...

Absence of mutagenicity of plants used to treat gastrointestinal disorders [PDF]
The Brazilian Savanna (locally called “Cerrado”) is an important biome presenting several plants that are used in popular medicine. However, the risks associated with the consumption of derivatives from these plants are generally unknown. Studies with

CDK8/19 inhibition plays an important role in pancreatic β-cell induction from human iPSCs
Background Transplantation of differentiated cells from human-induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) holds great promise for clinical treatments. Eliminating the risk factor of malignant cell transformation is essential for ensuring the safety of such ...

The Degradation Product of Ramipril Is Potentially Carcinogenic, Genotoxic and Mutagenic
(1) Background: The aim of this study was to identify the degradation product of ramipril (RAM) formed under dry air and to verify its potential modes of carcinogenicity. We intended to check whether its formation and presence in final dosage forms could

In Vitro Mutagenic and Genotoxic Assessment of a Mixture of the Cyanotoxins Microcystin-LR and Cylindrospermopsin [PDF]
The co-occurrence of various cyanobacterial toxins can potentially induce toxic effects different than those observed for single cyanotoxins, as interaction phenomena cannot be discarded. Moreover, mixtures are a more probable exposure scenario. However,
