Cytogenetic damage in buccal epithelia and peripheral lymphocytes of young healthy individuals exposed to ozone.
Ozone (O(3)) is an important component of air pollution and a potent oxidant of biomolecules. To address the hypothesis that elevated ambient O(3) can induce cytogenetic damage in healthy people, we collected buccal cells from two groups of students (N = 126) from University of California, Berkeley, in the spring and again in the fall. One group spent their summer in the Los Angeles (LA) area w...
متن کاملCytogenetic Damage in Operating Room Nurses Exposed to Anesthetic Gases
Background: Although eliminated rapidly from the body due to low solubility in blood and tissues, anesthetic gases have been reported to be neurotoxic, teratogenic and carcinogenic. Genetic material has been shown to be a sensitive target of numerous harmful agents. Aim of the Work: To evaluate genotoxic risk of occupational exposure to anesthetic gases in a group of operating room nurses. Subj...
متن کاملCytogenetic and DNA damage on workers exposed to styrene.
Styrene is a commercially important chemical widely used in the manufacture of synthetic rubber, resins, polyesters and plastics. The highest levels of human exposure to styrene occur during the production of reinforced plastic products. The objective of this work was to evaluate both DNA and cytogenetic damage in styrene-exposed workers, analysing only non-smoker individuals. Environmental lev...
متن کاملVitamin D3 Reduction in Individuals Exposed to Sulfur Mustard
Background: Inflammatory responses in individuals exposed to sulfur mustard occur in some organs such as lung, skin and eyes. These organs manifest overreaction in cellular and humoral immune responses. Over a long period, the immune responses often continues toward chronic inflammatory processes with some interventions. Obviously some elements have been deregulated. Therefore, this study evalu...
