Variation on Toxic and Inflammatory Potential of Coal Smoke of Different Sources From a Region With High Lung Cancer Risk

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Excess lung cancer risk in Xuanwei and Fuyuan, China, has been attributed to household air pollution from use of a locally sourced smoky (bituminous) coal. However, the carcinogenic mechanisms remain unclear. Given the important role of inflammation in lung cancer development, this study compared the proinflammatory potentials of the ...

Cytogenotoxic Effects of Fluopyram in Allium cepa Root Cells Involving Microtubule Disruption

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fluopyram is a next‐generation fungicide widely used in agriculture; however, its persistence in soils and mobility toward aquatic systems have raised concerns regarding potential ecotoxicological risks. This study evaluated the cytogenotoxic effects of a commercial fluopyram‐based pesticide formulation on Allium cepa root meristem cells ...

Evaluating Thiram‐Induced Embryotoxicity Using Integrated In Silico, In Vitro, and Transcriptomic Approaches

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Long‐term exposure to low‐dose food contact materials (FCMs) has raised concerns regarding developmental toxicity. In the present study, we prioritized FCMs with potential developmental toxicity using a weight‐of‐evidence computational model, which predicted 127 chemicals to be of high concern.

Maternal Lead Exposure Induces Glandular Alterations in the Salivary Glands of Rat Male Offspring

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lead (Pb) is a widely distributed environmental pollutant that is highly noxious due to its toxicokinetic characteristics. Pb exposure can damage vital organ systems, including the central nervous and stomatognathic systems. As salivary glands play an important role in oral homeostasis, this study aimed to investigate the effects of maternal ...

Rapid and efficient quality control analysis of isolated mitochondria by interferometric light microscopy

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Mitochrial transplantation is a promising therapy to restore energy in damaged cells, but it lacks fast and reliable methods to assess mitochondrial quality before use. In this study, we used a label‐free imaging technique called interferometric light microscopy to rapidly measure the size and concentration of isolated mitochondria.

PPM1G‒MET axis sustains AKT signaling to drive Twist‐associated EMT and drug resistance in hepatocellular carcinoma

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is frequently resistant to targeted therapies. We identify protein phosphatase Mg2+/Mn2+‐dependent 1G (PPM1G) as a key phosphatase that stabilizes mesenchymal‐epithelial transition factor (MET) by inhibiting its ubiquitination, thereby sustaining protein kinase B (AKT) signaling and promoting Twist‐mediated epithelial ...

Degradable versus inert microplastics: Effects on soil organic carbon persistence via microbial drivers in an agroecosystem

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Microplastics (MPs) are widespread in terrestrial ecosystems, raising global concerns that they may disrupt soil organic carbon (SOC) cycling and undermine agroecosystem contributions to climate mitigation.
