Gender-related differences in response to mutagens and carcinogens.
Mutagenesis, 2010 The incidences of many cancers can be very different in men and women. Besides differences in exposures to putative causative agents, it is plausible that both genetic and epigenetic effects play roles in these differences.

Biomonitoring of the genotoxic potential of aqueous extracts of soils and bottom ash resulting from municipal solid waste incineration, using the comet and micronucleus tests on amphibian (Xenopus laevis) larvae and bacterial assays (MutatoxR and Ames tests) [PDF]
, 2006 The management of contaminated soils and wastes is a matter of considerable human concern. The present study evaluates the genotoxic potential of aqueous extracts of two soils (leachates) and of bottom ash resulting from municipal solid waste ...

The 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.

The Role of Stromal Tumor Environment in Advancing Skin Cancer Diagnosis and Treatment
International Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The stromal tumor environment (STE) plays a vital yet often underrecognized role in cancer progression, shaping tumor development. It influences complex interactions among stromal cells, immune cells, extracellular matrix (ECM) components, and signaling molecules.

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.Abstract Mechanistic elucidation of spore development is essential for understanding reproductive strategies and improving seaweed cultivation. In this study, we isolated a mutant with spore development defects in Pyropia yezoensis (Rhodophyta) from among genetic transformants generated via insertional mutagenesis. We characterized the mutant phenotype

Induced floral heteromorphism in Petunia hybrida
Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014 Floral heteromorphism induced in Petunia hybrida with several chemical mutagens and gamma-radiation is discussed. Potentials of these mutagens in inducing various forms are described.

Molecular Microbiology, EarlyView.A novel TetR‐like regulator (EppR) has been identified to repress genes encoding DNA polymerase V in Acinetobacter baumannii through the direct binding of a conserved EppR motif in their promoters. EppR works with previously identified regulator UmuDAb to serve as co‐regulators of these genes. In response to DNA damage and/or environmental stress, both
