Marine Macroalgae as a Safe Healthy Food While Meeting Food Security Challenges Arising From Climate Changes

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Planned harvesting and processing of marine macroalgae could meet future global food needs and mitigate fuel‐originated carbon dioxide responsible for climate change. Microalgal foods are nutritious and safe. The utilization of macroalgae would avoid environmental problems arising from the release of overgrowing macroalgae caused by heatwaves, which ...

Immunomodulation of the Prostate Tumor Microenvironment Following Inorganic Arsenic Exposure

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The tumor microenvironment (TME) influences prostate cancer (PCa) progression through stromal and immune interactions. Adipose‐derived mesenchymal stromal cells (ASCs) modulate immune tone, while inorganic arsenic (iAs), a widespread toxicant, is linked to immune suppression and carcinogenesis.

Exploring the Chemical Complexity and Toxicological Behaviour of Semi‐permanent Make‐Up Pigments: A Systematic Review

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Semi‐permanent make‐up (SPMU), or micropigmentation, involves implanting pigments into the dermal layer of the skin for cosmetic enhancement. Unlike topical cosmetics, which are rapidly cleared from the body, SPMU pigments persist in living tissues, raising unique toxicological considerations.

In Vitro Assays of Inorganic Arsenic Methylation [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Protocols in Toxicology, 2009
AbstractInorganic arsenic is extensively metabolized to produce mono‐, di‐, and trimethylated products. The formation of these metabolites produces a variety of intermediates that differ from inorganic arsenic in terms of patterns of distribution and retention and in toxic effects.
