Whole exome and transcript profiling of liver following aflatoxin B1 exposure in rats
Abstract We recently developed a rat whole exome sequencing (WES) panel and used it to evaluate early somatic mutations in archival liver tissues from F344/N rats exposed to the hepatocarcinogen, Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), a widely studied, potent mutagen and hepatocarcinogen associated with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

We established a novel inducible haematopoietic cell‐depleting mouse model and tested the feasibility of using chimeric complementation to regenerate HSCs and their progeny cells. Large populations of syngeneic and major histocompatibility‐mismatched haematopoietic cells were successfully regenerated by this model.

Revisiting the testicular toxicity of cyanide: Assessment of the new and existing literature
Abstract Background Based on new testing, we re‐assess U.S. EPA and California OEHHA conclusions regarding male reproductive toxicity associated with cyanide exposure. Methods Literature identified by ATSDR, ECETOC and EPA was complemented by studies conducted after 2006. Relevant studies were scored for quality using ToxRTool. Results Eleven pertinent

Abstract In 2015, EFSA established a temporary tolerable daily intake (t‐TDI) for BPA of 4 μg/kg body weight (bw) per day. In 2016, the European Commission mandated EFSA to re‐evaluate the risks to public health from the presence of BPA in foodstuffs and to establish a tolerable daily intake (TDI). For this re‐evaluation, a pre‐established protocol was

Lymphoma caused by intestinal microbiota. [PDF]
The intestinal microbiota and gut immune system must constantly communicate to maintain a balance between tolerance and activation: on the one hand, our immune system should protect us from pathogenic microbes and on the other hand, most of the millions ...
