Bifenthrin Under Scrutiny: Revisiting Toxicological Evidence Amid Regulatory Gaps
Journal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 46, Issue 1, Page 61-77, January 2026.ABSTRACT Despite growing health concerns, bifenthrin (BF) remains widely used for controlling agricultural and residential pests. However, different perspectives on its toxicological profile and regulatory framework warrant a revisit and update on BF regulation towards a robust risk‐safety assessment.

Small Structures, Volume 7, Issue 1, January 2026.This article highlights the fibrous morphology of multiwalled carbon nanotubes as a key factor in their genotoxicity. Fibers physically interfere in cell division, generating binucleated cells and micronuclei, both of which are precursors of carcinogenesis.

The FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 2, Page 396-417, January 2026.KDM4A, a chromatin eraser, localizes to the centrosomes. Its demethylase activity is essential for maintaining centrosome number and integrity, independent of gene expression changes. Loss of KDM4A leads to centrosome amplification, pseudo‐bipolar spindle formation, and chromosome segregation errors, including micronuclei and chromatin bridges.
