Review of Transcriptomic Biomarkers That Predict In Vitro Genotoxicity in Human Cell Lines

open access: yesEnvironmental and Molecular Mutagenesis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The current genotoxicity testing paradigm provides little mechanistic information, has poor specificity in predicting carcinogenicity in humans, and is not suited to assessing a large number of chemicals. Genomic technologies enable the characterization of genome‐wide transcriptional changes in response to chemical treatments that can inform ...

The In Vitro Transgenic Rodent Assay in Primary MutaMouse Hepatocytes Compared to the Mammalian Cell Gene Mutation Assay Using the HPRT Gene

open access: yesEnvironmental and Molecular Mutagenesis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gene mutations can be detected in mammalian cells in vitro using indicator genes such as the hypoxanthine‐guanine‐phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT) gene. These assays have been adopted as OECD test guidelines (TG, e.g., OECD TG no. 476) and are used for regulatory purposes.

Short-term mutagenicity test by using IRAP molecular marker in rice grown under herbicide treatment

open access: yesBiotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 2018
Rice is an economically important plant as well as a model organism. The rice genome consists of 35% retrotransposons. Although most of the retrotransposons are inactivated through evolutionary processes, they can be activated under various biotic and ...

Neurodevelopmental features in KCNQ2 developmental and epileptic encephalopathy may have limited associations with KV7.2 dysfunction

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Variants in KCNQ2 encoding the voltage‐gated potassium channel KV7.2 are associated with developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (DEE) of varying severity. This study examined the relationship of KCNQ2 variant dysfunction with the neurodevelopmental phenotype of individuals with KCNQ2‐DEE. Methods A parent‐reported survey gathered
