Food Mutagens [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Nutrition, 2003
Several lines of evidence indicate that diet and dietary behaviors can contribute to human cancer risk. One way that this occurs is through the ingestion of food mutagens. Sporadic cancers result from a gene-environment interactions where the environment includes endogenous and exogenous exposures.

Occurrence of the potent mutagens 2- nitrobenzanthrone and 3-nitrobenzanthrone in fine airborne particles

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
Polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs) are known due to their mutagenic activity. Among them, 2-nitrobenzanthrone (2-NBA) and 3-nitrobenzanthrone (3-NBA) are considered as two of the most potent mutagens found in atmospheric particles. In the present study

Induced Mutations Unleash the Potentials of Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture

open access: yesAgronomy, 2013
The options for increasing food production by at least 70% over the next four decades so as to keep pace with a rapidly increasing human population are bedeviled by erratic climatic conditions, depleted arable lands, dwindling water resources and by the ...

Study of mutagenic effects with predicted carcinogenicity of 4-((5-decylthio)-4-methyl-4-H-1,2,4-triazole-3-yl)methyl)morpholine for further research in order to create a new drug with antifungal activity

open access: yesAktualʹnì Pitannâ Farmacevtičnoï ì Medičnoï Nauki ta Praktiki, 2022
The development of effective and safe therapeutic agents using 1,2,4-triazole derivatives is gaining momentum in today’s conditions. The value of such drugs is determined by the rapid and prolonged biological action, which is not accompanied by abrupt ...

Genome-wide somatic mutation analysis via Hawk-Seq™ reveals mutation profiles associated with chemical mutagens

open access: yesArchives of Toxicology, 2019
It is difficult to identify mutagen-induced genome-wide somatic mutations using next generation sequencing; hence, mutagenic features of each mutagen and their roles in cancer development require further elucidation.

A mathematical model for cancer risk and accumulation of mutations caused by replication errors and external factors.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2023
Replication errors influence mutations, and thus, lifetime cancer risk can be explained by the number of stem-cell divisions. Additionally, mutagens also affect cancer risk, for instance, high-dose radiation exposure increases lifetime cancer risk ...

Assessment of genotoxic and mutagenic effects of food products by bioassay methods

open access: yesТеория и практика переработки мяса, 2021
The current state of studies on application and safety of food additives in various technologies for food production is examined. Considerable attention should be given to studies dedicated to analysis of food safety criteria due to a possibility of ...

The Mutagenic Impact of Environmental Exposures in Human Cells and Cancer: Imprints Through Time

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
During life, the DNA of our cells is continuously exposed to external damaging processes. Despite the activity of various repair mechanisms, DNA damage eventually results in the accumulation of mutations in the genomes of our cells.
