All the relevant risk factors contributing to breast cancer etiology are not fully known. Exposure organochlorine pesticides has been linked an increased incidence of disease, although all data have consistent. Most published studies evaluated exposure organochlorines individually, ignoring potential effects exerted by mixtures chemicals.This population-based study was designed evaluate profile detected in 103 healthy women and 121 diagnosed with from Gran Canaria Island, relation between...
Anticoagulant rodenticides (ARs) are highly toxic compounds that exclusively used for the control of rodent pests. Despite their defined use, they nonetheless found in a large number non-target species indicating widespread penetration wildlife. Attempts to quantify scale problem complicated by non-random sampling individuals tested AR contamination. The American mink (Neovison vison) is wide ranging, non-native, generalist predator subject efforts UK. Exposure eight ARs was determined 99...
Insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R) is a transmembrane tyrosine kinase involved in the development and progression of cancer whose activation strongly promotes cell survival. IGF-1R exerts its main actions through mitogen-activated protein phosphoinositide 3-kinase pathways. In addition to their traditional roles, has been associated with increased radioresistance both vitro vivo, although molecular mechanisms behind this process are still unclear. Recently, new partners as major...
Background:Exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) has been linked bladder cancer.Objective:To evaluate the role of PAHs in cancer, serum levels were measured patients and controls from a case-control study.Methods:A total 140 cancer 206 healthy included study. Sixteen analyzed subjects by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry.Results:Serum did not appear be related risk, although profile contamination was different between controls: pyrene (Pyr) solely detected chrysene (Chry)...
The recent volcanic eruption on the island of La Palma has aroused concern banana producers and consumers, given that in its area influence there are thousands hectares plantations with an annual production about 100 million kilos for export. Since volcanoes one main natural sources heavy metal contamination, we sampled bananas from affected determined concentrations 50 elements (Ag, Al, As, Au, Ba, Be, Bi, Cd, Ce, Co, Cr, Cu, Dy, Er, Eu, Fe, Ga, Gd, Hg, Ho, In, La, Lu, Mn, Mo, Nb, Nd, Ni,...
The biomagnification and biodilution of inorganic pollutants, have a close correlation on the structure function trophic change behavior; sea turtles represent an excellent bioindicator model to identify their impact in marine ecosystems. To understand pollution effects ecosystems, we quantified bioconcentration 50 elements blood scute tissues three nesting species (Chelonia mydas, Eretmochelys imbricata Caretta caretta), collected Quintana Roo State from July 2017 August 2018. As general...
Background In psychedelic therapy, the importance of set and setting is a fundamental but under-researched assumption. The aim this study to correlate variables (psychedelic use motivation) location type companion) with psychopathology, wellbeing personality variables.
Poisoning with agricultural chemicals is a major threat for wildlife all over the world. We have developed and validated an analytical scheme aimed to identification quantification of wide range pesticides in fresh liver from specimens that are routinely delivered forensic laboratories toxicological investigation. The proposed method comprised general solid-liquid extraction followed by purification steps three complementary liquid or gas chromatographic analyses triple quadrupole mass...
