Assessment of genotoxic damage induced by exposure to binary mixtures of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and three heavy metals in male mice.

Introduction: Heavy metals (HM) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) exposition has been associated with health problems. Therefore, this research evaluated genotoxicity induced in male mice strain CD-1 exposed to benzo[a]anthracene (B[a]A) and benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) and their interaction with Fe, Pb, and Al.

Methods: Groups of animals were exposed intraperitoneally to HM, PAHs, and mixtures of both.

Evaluation of genotoxic damage, production reactive oxygen and nitrogen species in Plasmodium yoelii yoelii exposed to sodium metavanadate.

Malaria represents the greatest global health burden among all parasitic diseases, with drug resistance representing the primary obstacle to control efforts. Sodium metavanadate (NaVO) exhibits antimalarial activity against the Plasmodium yoelii yoelii (Pyy), yet its precise antimalarial mechanism remains elusive. This study aimed to assess the antimalarial potential of NaVO, evaluate its genotoxicity, and determine the production of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS/RNS) in Pyy.

Raw data of the effects of Chlorogenic acid in 3-Nitropropionic acid induced toxicity and genotoxicity.

The raw data showed in this article comes from the published research article entitled "Protective effects of Chlorogenic acid in 3-Nitropropionic acid induced toxicity and genotoxicity" Food Chem Toxicol. 2017 May 3. pii: S0278-6915(17)30226-0.

Protective effects of chlorogenic acid in 3-nitropropionic acid induced toxicity and genotoxicity.

Mitochondrial inhibition with the toxin 3-Nitropropionic acid (3-NP) has been used to study the underlying mechanisms in striatal neurodegeneration, but few experiments have evaluated its toxicity and genotoxicity of in vivo administration. Furthermore, different antioxidant molecules may prevent degeneration induced by the toxic effects of 3-NP. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the toxicity and genotoxicity induced by 3-NP (15 mg/kg) in the micronuclei assay method; also, we assessed chlorogenic acid (CGA, 100 mg/kg) for its anti-toxic and anti-genotoxic effect in damage produced by in vivo treatment with 3-NP.
