The proto-oncogene c-myc (myc) encodes a transcription factor (Myc) that promotes growth, proliferation and apoptosis. Myc has been suggested to induce these effects by induction/repression of downstream genes. Here we report the identification potential target genes in human B cell line grows proliferates depending on conditional myc expression. Oligonucleotide microarrays were applied identify at level cytoplasmic mRNA. In addition, identified nuclear run-on experiments changes their rate....
The determination of the real toxicity sediments in aquatic ecosystems is challenging and necessary for an appropriate risk assessment. Different approaches have been developed applied over last several decades. Currently, joint implementation chemical, ecological toxicological tools recommended successful We chose combination toxic unit approach with acute pore water tests (Vibrio fischeri, Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata Daphnia magna) whole-sediment exposure (V. Chironomus riparius),...
Formaldehyde is a carcinogenic substance for humans. Exposure to formaldehyde may also cause eye and respiratory tract irritation, as well skin sensitization. The main indoor sources of are wood-pressed products, insulation materials, paints, varnishes, household cleaning products cigarettes, among others. Although this chemical well-known pollutant, data on concentrations still scarce in some countries. In February 2014, 10 homes Catalonia, Spain, were randomly selected collect (bedroom...
Breastfeeding is one of the most effective ways to ensure child health and survival, with several benefits for both infants their mothers. However, breast milk can contain environmental pollutants endocrine disruption capacity, neurotoxicity and/or potential alter microbiota. Monitoring provides information on current chemical exposure breastfed and, in addition, historical nursing In this study, levels a wide range were measured Spanish Target chemicals dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane...
