Safety Assessment and Hypoglycemic Effect of Moringa oleifera Lam. Seed Lectin (WSMoL) in Alloxan‐Induced Diabetic Mice

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Moringa oleifera Lam. seeds contain WSMoL, a lectin previously studied for toxicity and pharmacological effects. In this study, we investigated WSMoL (10, 25, or 50 mg/kg i.p.) for acute and 14‐day repeated‐dose toxicity, as well as genotoxicity, in Swiss mice.

Bisphenol A Induces DNA Damage and Differential Cytotoxicity in Thyroid Cells: High‐Dose Effects Challenge Regulatory Thresholds

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bisphenol A (BPA), a ubiquitous environmental endocrine disruptor, has been implicated in carcinogenesis; however, its effects on thyroid cells remain unclear. This study investigated BPA‐induced cytotoxicity and genotoxicity in thyroid cell lines, including normal follicular (Nthy‐ori 3‐1), papillary carcinoma (TPC‐1 and BCPAP) and anaplastic

Melanoma Cells Exposed to Clomiphene Citrate Respond With Cell Cycle Arrest and Reduced Invasiveness

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Epidemiological studies have suggested that clomiphene citrate (CC) exposure may increase the risk of malignant melanoma, but mechanisms are unknown. We investigated the effects of CC on melanoma cell line A375. Cells were treated with CC at 2, 20, 200, and 2000 ng/mL, followed by assessment of cell viability and metabolism, cell cycle ...

The Impact of Genetic Polymorphisms on Genotoxicity (DNA Damage) Among Children Exposed to Environmental Mutagens: A Systematic Review

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Children, as a particularly vulnerable group, are more susceptible to these mutagens due to their developing immune systems, higher physiological vulnerability, and increased exposure through behaviors like outdoor play and hand‐to‐mouth activities. This review aims to investigate the relationship between these environmental exposures, genetic
