Intakes of red meat, processed meat, and meat mutagens increase lung cancer risk.
Red and processed meat intake may increase lung cancer risk. However, the epidemiologic evidence is inconsistent and few studies have evaluated the role of meat mutagens formed during high cooking temperatures. We investigated the association of red meat,

Cyto‐Genotoxic Assessment of Sulfoxaflor in Allium cepa Root Cells and DNA Docking Studies
Cyto‐genotoxic Assessment of Sulfoxaflor in Allium cepa Root Cells and DNA Docking Studies. ABSTRACT Sulfoxaflor (SFX) is an insecticide that is commonly used for the control of sap‐feeding insects. Since SFX is extensively applied globally, it has been implicated in the substantial induction of environmental toxicity.

Solution of the Quasispecies Model for an Arbitrary Gene Network [PDF]
In this paper, we study the equilibrium behavior of Eigen's quasispecies equations for an arbitrary gene network. We consider a genome consisting of $ N $ genes, so that each gene sequence $ \sigma $ may be written as $ \sigma = \sigma_1 \sigma_2 ... \sigma_N $.

Assessing Human Ribosomal DNA Variation and Its Association With Phenotypic Outcomes
Genetic variation within the multi‐copy, multi‐locus ribosomal DNA (rDNA) can contribute to human complex trait variability. This variation takes the form of copy number, structural arrangement, and sequence differences. This review summarizes what is currently known about human rDNA variation, its causes, and its association with phenotypic outcomes ...
