Aristolochic Acid Affects Upper Tract Urothelial Cancer Behavior through the MAPK Pathway
The prevalence of upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) in Taiwan is relatively higher than thatin Western countries. Aristolochic acid (AA), which is widely used in traditional Chinese herbology, is now recognized to be one of the carcinogens for UTUC.

GFP transgenic medaka (Oryzias latipes) under the inducible cyp1a promoter provide a sensitive and convenient biological indicator for the presence of TCDD and other persistent organic chemicals. [PDF]
Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are resistant to environmental degradation and can cause multitude of health problems. Cytochrome P450 1A (Cyp1a) is often up-regulated by POPs through the activation of aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) pathway and is ...

Scientific Report on consumer health‐based guidance values for trifluoroacetic acid
Abstract The European Commission asked EFSA to provide a scientific report according to Article 31 of Regulation (EC) No 178/2002, in conjunction with Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009, to revise consumer health‐based guidance values, i.e. acceptable daily intake (ADI) and acute reference dose (ARfD), for trifluoroacetic acid (TFA). EFSA launched a targeted
