Distribution of Seven N-Nitrosamines in Food.

Toxicological research

Park JE, Seo JE, Lee JY, Kwon H.
PMID: 26483887
Toxicol Res. 2015 Sep;31(3):279-88. doi: 10.5487/TR.2015.31.3.279.

N-nitrosamines, which are classified as carcinogens by IARC and US EPA, can be easily found in various foods. They are reaction products between nitrogen oxide and secondary amines, but can also be generated during fermentation. Ever since the 1960s,...

Undifferentiated Pleomorphic Sarcoma and the Importance of Considering the Oncogenic and Immune-Suppressant Role of the Human T-Cell Lymphotropic Virus Type 1: A Case Report.

Frontiers in oncology

Lupo S, Berini C, Cánepa C, Santini Araujo E, Biglione M.
PMID: 28596939
Front Oncol. 2017 May 24;7:91. doi: 10.3389/fonc.2017.00091. eCollection 2017.

INTRODUCTION: Soft-tissue sarcomas account for 0.7% of all malignant tumors, with an incidence rate of 3 per 100,000 persons/year. The undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS) with giant cells, a high grade tumor of soft tissue, is very unusual, especially in...

VOC emission rates over London and South East England obtained by airborne eddy covariance.

Faraday discussions

Vaughan AR, Lee JD, Shaw MD, Misztal PK, Metzger S, Vieno M, Davison B, Karl TG, Carpenter LJ, Lewis AC, Purvis RM, Goldstein AH, Hewitt CN.
PMID: 28580967
Faraday Discuss. 2017 Aug 24;200:599-620. doi: 10.1039/c7fd00002b.

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) originate from a variety of sources, and play an intrinsic role in influencing air quality. Some VOCs, including benzene, are carcinogens and so directly affect human health, while others, such as isoprene, are very reactive...

Smokeless tobacco, viruses and oral cancer.

Oral health and dental management

Sand L, Wallström M, Hirsch JM.
PMID: 24984650
Oral Health Dent Manag. 2014 Jun;13(2):372-8.

Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma (OSCC) is the most common epithelial malignancy in the oral cavity. OSCCs and their variants constitute over 90% of oral malignancies, and the disease is associated with poor prognosis. OSCC is a complex malignancy where...

Schistosomiasis and urinary bladder cancer in North Western Tanzania: a retrospective review of 185 patients.

Infectious agents and cancer

Rambau PF, Chalya PL, Jackson K.
PMID: 23705833
Infect Agent Cancer. 2013 May 24;8(1):19. doi: 10.1186/1750-9378-8-19.

INTRODUCTION: Worldwide, cancers of the urinary bladder are well known to be associated with environmental chemical carcinogens such as smoking and occupational exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. These cancers are typically transitional cell carcinoma (urothelial carcinoma). In areas where...

Uptake of nitroaromatic compounds in plants : Implications for risk assessment of ammunition sites.

Environmental science and pollution research international

Schneider K, Oltmanns J, Radenberg T, Schneider T, Pauly-Mundegar D.
PMID: 24235051
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 1996 Sep;3(3):135-8. doi: 10.1007/BF02985519.

The uptake of nitroaromatic compounds by plants from the soil was studied at an ammunition site. After the development of analytical methods for 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene, aminodinitrotoluenes and dinitrotoluenes in plant material, we could show that these substances accumulated in the...

Effects of toasting procedures on the levels of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in toasted bread.

Food chemistry

Rey-Salgueiro L, García-Falcón MS, Martínez-Carballo E, Simal-Gándara J.
PMID: 26059139
Food Chem. 2008 May 15;108(2):607-15. doi: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2007.11.026. Epub 2007 Nov 22.

Some polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), particularly those with a high molecular weight, have been classified as probably carcinogens to humans by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC). The significance of the determination of PAHs is reflected by...

Tumour-promoting phorbol esters rapidly inhibit bud formation in hydra.

Roux's archives of developmental biology : the official organ of the EDBO

Shiba Y, Yamasaki H, Kanno Y.
PMID: 28305392
Rouxs Arch Dev Biol. 1987 Oct;196(7):445-449. doi: 10.1007/BF00399144.

The effects of tumour promoters and carcinogens on bud formation were investigated in an attempt to clarify the primary process of bud formation in hydra. Treatment with 1.0ng/ml 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), phorbol-12,13-didecanoate (PDD) or mezerein added immediately after feeding rapidly...

Cancer prevention and control: alarming challenges in China.

National science review

Bode AM, Dong Z, Wang H.
PMID: 27308066

China is geographically the third largest country in the world and the most populated low-to-middle-income country. Cancer incidence and mortality rates for some cancers in the USA and European countries have steadily decreased over the last decades, whereas the...

Association between GSTP1 Ile105Val polymorphism and urinary system cancer risk: evidence from 51 studies.

OncoTargets and therapy
