The Use of the Ames Test as a Tool for Addressing Problem-Based Learning in the Microbiology Lab
Our environment is full of potential carcinogens such as UV light, industrial pollutants, pesticides, and food additives, among others. It is estimated that 90% of all carcinogens are also mutagens.

Photodynamic therapy of cancer‐associated infections
Pathogens can be involved in tumor initiation, promotion and progression through different mechanisms, and their treatment can prevent new cancer cases, improve outcomes, and revert poor‐prognostic phenotypes. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) successfully treats different types of cancers and infections, and, therefore, has a unique potential to address ...

Lethal Mutagenesis of Poliovirus Mediated by a Mutagenic Pyrimidine Analogue [PDF]
Lethal mutagenesis is the mechanism of action of ribavirin against poliovirus (PV) and numerous other RNA viruses. However, there is still considerable debate regarding the mechanism of action of ribavirin against a variety of RNA viruses.

Intergenerational Enlargement of Human Organs as a Driver of Increased Cancer Risk?
Identifying the environmental factors and associated mechanisms driving increased cancer incidence in younger generations is a matter of great urgency. Here, we propose and discuss a new potential mechanism: larger organ sizes in younger individuals resulting from intergenerational differences in lifestyle, diet, and environmental exposures.

Mutagens affect food and water biodeteriorating fungi [PDF]
Many areas of food mycology could be affected detrimentally by mutation of wild type fungi. Some of these will contact mutagens from pre-isolation to experimentation and the effect on fungi isolated from mycotoxin-contaminated food is assessed for ...

Impacts of Inorganic Arsenic Exposure on Genetic Stability of Human Mesenchymal Stromal Cells
ABSTRACT Human mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (hMSCs) can differentiate into mesoderm‐type cells, making them suitable candidates for tissue repair therapies. However, their relatively low frequency in adult tissue necessitates ex vivo expansion prior to regenerative medicine applications, and therefore, long‐term hMSC genetic stability during ...
