Nanomaterials as Soil Pollutants
, 2018 This chapter covers how engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) may enter soils, how they behave in soils, the exposure dynamics this presents to soil organisms, and resulting issues for uptake and food-chain transfer. Special attention is given to summarizing the main issues and the current state of the art for the most important elements of how ENMs act as ...

Chronobiology of Cancer: How Aging Fuels Oncogenesis at the Molecular Level
Aging and Cancer, EarlyView.This graphical abstract illustrates the key biological pathways linking aging with cancer development and progression. In the upper left, cumulative exposure to ultraviolet radiation, toxins, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) causes DNA damage and genomic instability, whereas age‐related decline in repair mechanisms, such as ATM/ATR, BER, and NER ...
