Mineworkers' Perspectives on Whole‐Body Vibration Exposures in the Ghanaian Mining Industry

Safety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Across most industries, there appears to be greater commitment to occupational safety than to occupational health, largely because safety effects are readily observable, whereas health effects are hard to notice, as they take prolonged exposure to become apparent.

PFOA Exposure Elicits Quantitative Lipidomic Changes in the Pancreas in a Mouse Model of Pancreatic Cancer

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pancreatic cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer deaths in the US and predicted to rise to second by 2030. Several risk factors have been identified as potential contributors to pancreatic cancer development including lifestyle factors and long‐term exposure to occupational and environmental carcinogens.

Integrative Bioinformatics, Experimental Validation, and Interpretable Machine Learning Reveal Oxyresveratrol‐Mediated Protection Against Cadmium‐Induced Lung Adenocarcinoma‐Related Transcriptional Dysregulation

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic heavy metal strongly implicated in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) through mechanisms involving oxidative stress, epigenetic dysregulation, and chronic inflammation. This study aimed to identify Cd‐responsive genes associated with LUAD and to evaluate the protective effects of oxyresveratrol (O‐RES) against Cd‐induced ...

Establishment of a Human Cell‐Based In Vitro Test System for Investigating and Evaluating Cytotoxic and Immunomodulatory Effects of Indoor Mold

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mold growth in damp indoor environments is a widespread problem associated with respiratory health effects, though causal mechanisms remain incompletely understood. We established a human cell‐based in vitro test system using bronchial epithelial cells (NuLi‐1) and macrophages (THP‐1) to assess inhalation toxicity and immunomodulatory effects ...
