MLH1 p.His112Arg Variant Is Associated With Increased Cancer Susceptibility
ABSTRACT Lynch syndrome, a prevalent hereditary cancer predisposition, is frequently caused by pathogenic variants in the MutL homolog 1 (MLH1) mismatch repair gene. However, a significant proportion of MLH1 missense variants remain classified as variants of uncertain significance (VUS), creating clinical ambiguity.

ABSTRACT The extensive use of pesticides in modern agriculture has raised increasing concerns regarding the potential biological effects of repeated exposure to pesticide residues and commercial formulations. Mancozeb is a widely used ethylene‐bis‐dithiocarbamate fungicide; however, information on its hematological and genotoxic effects following ...

Dual Genotoxic and Antigenotoxic Effects of 3‐Benzoylcoumarins in Mammalian Cells
ABSTRACT Coumarins are phenolic compounds widely recognized for their diverse pharmacological activities and have attracted increasing attention as potential chemopreventive agents. In the present study, four known 3‐benzoylcoumarin derivatives [(1), (2), (3), and (4)] were evaluated for their cytotoxic, mutagenic, and antigenotoxic effects in Chinese ...

ABSTRACT Cigarettes induce oxidative stress and DNA damage, processes that contribute to cardiovascular and pulmonary disease. High content screening (HCS) is an increasingly valuable tool for comparative toxicology because it enables simultaneous quantification of multiple mechanistic endpoints at single‐cell resolution. In this study, HCS was used to

Cytotoxic and Genotoxic Effects in Buccal Cells of Sandstone Quarry Workers
ABSTRACT Mineral extraction poses significant occupational health risks, particularly from respirable crystalline silica exposure. Sandstone quarrying generates substantial dust, yet evidence of its genotoxic effects remains limited. This study investigated cytogenotoxic damage in sandstone quarry workers from southern Brazil using the buccal ...

Ionic liquids: structure–toxicity relationships, predictive toxicology, and sustainable design
Abstract Ionic liquids (ILs) have often been described as green alternatives to conventional solvents because of their negligible vapor pressure and highly tunable properties. However, low volatility does not necessarily translate into environmental safety, as their biological and ecological effects are strongly influenced by molecular structure.

ABSTRACT Opioid use disorder (OUD) remains a major global health challenge, and currently approved treatments (methadone, buprenorphine, and naltrexone) are all opioid receptor‐targeting drugs with limitations in access, adherence, stigma, and use in polysubstance use disorders. Because the dopamine D3 receptor (D3R) is enriched in limbic brain regions
