Hematological and Genotoxic Effects of Subchronic Oral Exposure to a Mancozeb‐Based Fungicide in Female Mice

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The extensive use of pesticides in modern agriculture has raised increasing concerns regarding the potential biological effects of repeated exposure to pesticide residues and commercial formulations. Mancozeb is a widely used ethylene‐bis‐dithiocarbamate fungicide; however, information on its hematological and genotoxic effects following ...

Bisphenol A and Its Analogs: Toxicity Analysis in Mouse and Rat Liver—A Review

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bisphenol A (BPA) and its analogs are widely recognized for their use in industry and plastic manufacturing. Consequently, humans and animals are continually exposed to various substances in their daily lives. This review evaluates the hepatic toxicity of BPA and its analogs in mice and rats, with particular emphasis on molecular mechanisms ...

Mesotheliomas induced by sterigmatocystin in Wistar rats.

Gan, 1978
Male Wistar rats were given repeated injections of sterigmatocystin (stg) and related compounds into the peritoneal cavity once a week for 23 weeks. Only stg alone produced mesothelioma in 20 of 40 rats given a total dose of 20 approximately 25 mg, while no mesotheliomas were found in rats injected O-acetyl-stg (AcO-stg) and dihydro-stg. There were two

Potential Neuroendocrine Disruption by Benzodiazepines and Its Impact on Male Fertility

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neuroactive substances have emerged as potent endocrine disruptors affecting male reproductive health through central and peripheral mechanisms. Among these, benzodiazepines, which are widely used for the management of anxiety, insomnia, epilepsy, and neuromuscular disorders, are known as GABA A (gamma‐aminobutyric acid type A) receptor ...

Bisphenol M Induces Dose‐Dependent Hepatic Injury and Fibrotic Remodeling in Female Mice

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The safety of bisphenol analogs as alternatives to bisphenol A (BPA) is increasingly concerning. This study investigated the hepatotoxic effects of bisphenol M (BPM), a widely used BPA substitute, in 6‐week‐old female BALB/c mice exposed to 2.5, 5, and 10 mg/kg/day intraperitoneally for 14 days. Hepatic changes were assessed via histopathology,

The Crude Venom of the Whitetail Lancehead, Bothrops leucurus, and Two of Its Enzymatic Components Are Selectively Cytotoxic for Glioma Cells In Vitro

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Malignant glioma is the most common primary brain tumor, and glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) remains its most aggressive and incurable form. Snake venoms contain bioactive compounds with promising antitumoral properties against several cancer types.

Subchronic Exposure to Cannabis‐Based Nanoemulsions Induces Histopathological and Molecular Alterations in the Rat Submandibular Gland

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The increasing therapeutic incorporation of cannabis has expanded phytocannabinoid application, yet peripheral adverse effects like xerostomia raise concerns regarding emerging biotechnological formulations. This study evaluated the effects of cannabis‐based lipid nanoemulsions on the rat submandibular gland parenchyma.

Effects of Glyphosate and Glyphosate‐Based Herbicides on the Mammalian Gut Microbiome: A Critical Review

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glyphosate has long been considered to pose negligible direct risk to mammals on the grounds that its molecular target, 5‐enolpyruvylshikimate‐3‐phosphate synthase (EPSPS), of the shikimate pathway, is absent from animal cells. This rationale is inaccurate as a complete toxicological argument, because the shikimate pathway is present in some ...
