Meat-cooking mutagens and risk of renal cell carcinoma
Background:High-temperature cooked meat contains two families of carcinogens, heterocyclic amines (HCAs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Given the kidneys’ role in metabolism and urinary excretion of these compounds, we investigated meat ...

ABSTRACT Porphyromonas gingivalis is a key pathogen in periodontitis, with secreted proteases as major virulence factors. We developed a screening method to generate and identify P. gingivalis mutants with elevated protease activity. Mutations were induced using the mutagens 2,6‐diaminopurine (2,6‐DAP) or ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS), and the ...

ABSTRACT A key challenge for the genetic improvement of canola (Brassica napus), one of the world's most important oilseeds, is the limited natural variation for commercially important traits. The creation of new variation is hindered by the lack of functional knowledge about genes controlling these traits.

Navigating the Genetic Risk of Chemotherapy‐Induced Hearing Loss in the Stria Vascularis
Cisplatin is a chemotherapy drug that causes permanent hearing loss by damaging a critical tissue lining the inner ear, called the stria vascularis (SV). Currently, the molecular mechanisms of SV damage are largely unknown and the incidence of ototoxicity in patients cannot be reliably predicted.

Analysis of Regulatory Inhalation Unit Risk Estimates for Cobalt: Comparison to Epidemiological Data
ABSTRACT Several cancer potency estimates have been proposed by regulatory agencies to characterize the dose response of cobalt and/or cobalt compounds. The objective of this research is to investigate whether these proposed cancer potency estimates for certain cobalt substances align with the available epidemiology literature.
