Genotoxicity of lapachol evaluated by wing spot test of Drosophila melanogaster
This study investigated the genotoxicity of Lapachol (LAP) evaluated by wing spot test of Drosophila melanogaster in the descendants from standard (ST) and high bioactivation (HB) crosses. This assay detects the loss of heterozygosity of marker genes expressed phenotypically on the fly's wings. Drosophila has extensive genetic homology to mammals, which makes it a suitable model organism for ge...
متن کاملQuantitative structure-activity relationships for toxicity and genotoxicity of halogenated aliphatic compounds: wing spot test of Drosophila melanogaster.
Halogenated aliphatic compounds were evaluated for toxic and genotoxic effects in the somatic mutation and recombination test employing Drosophila melanogaster. The tested chemicals included chlorinated, brominated and iodinated; mono-, di- and tri-substituted; saturated and unsaturated alkanes: 1,2-dibromoethane, 1-bromo-2-chloroethane, 1-iodopropane, 2,3-dichloropropene, 3-bromo-1-propene, ep...
متن کاملEffect of organic tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) extract on the genotoxicity of doxorubicin in the Drosophila wing spot test
The consumption of organic tomatoes (ORTs) reduces the risk of harmful effects to humans and the environment caused by exposure to toxic agrochemicals. In this study, we used the somatic mutation and recombination test (SMART) of wing spots in Drosophila melanogaster to evaluate the genotoxicity of ORT and the effect of cotreatment with ORT on the genotoxicity of Doxorubicin(®) (DXR, a cancer c...
متن کاملGenotoxicity of Lufenuron to Drosophila Melanogaster
The chitin-synthesis inhibitor lufenuron was administered to Drosophila melanogaster by incorporation of the LC50 (12 ppm) into the larval rearing medium to reveal its effects on the induction of sex-linked recessive lethals (SLRL), asynapsis in polytene chromosomes, and chromosomal aberrations in mitotic cells. The results show that lufenuron increases the frequency of SLRL, as evaluated by th...
متن کاملRecombinagenic activity of four compounds in the standard and high bioactivation crosses of Drosophila melanogaster in the wing spot test.
The wing somatic mutation and recombination test (SMART) using Drosophila melanogaster was employed to determine the recombinagenic and mutagenic activity of four chemicals in an in vivo eukaryotic system. Two different crosses involving the wing cell markers mwh and flr(3) were used: the standard cross and a high bioactivation cross. The high bioactivation cross is characterized by a high cons...
