In vitro genotoxic effects of four Helichrysum species in human lymphocytes cultures.
Helichrysum sanguineum, Helichrysum pamphylicum, Helichrysum orientale, Helichrysum noeanum (Asteraceae) are medicinal plants. For centuries, they have been used as tea in Turkey because of their medicinal properties. So far no scientific evidence has been found in a literature survey regarding the genotoxic effects of these plants. This work evaluated the genotoxic effects on human lymphocyte ...
متن کاملIn vitro genotoxic effects of benzoyl peroxide in human peripheral lymphocytes
The aim of the present research was to investigate the genotoxic potency of benzoyl peroxide (BPO), a whitener of flour and cheese, using in vitro sister chromatid exchange (SCE), chromosome aberration (CA), and micronucleus (MN) tests in human peripheral lymphocytes. Cells were exposed to 25, 50, 75, and 100 μg/mL concentrations of BPO for 24 and 48 h. BPO induced SCEs only at the highest conc...
متن کاملIn vitro protection of human lymphocytes from toxic effects of chlorpyrifos by selenium-enriched medicines
Objective(s): Chlorpyrifos (CP) is a broad-spectrum organophosphorus pesticide used extensively in agricultural and domestic pest control, accounting for 50% of the global insecticidal use. In the present study, protective effects of two selenium-enriched strong antioxidative medicines IMOD and Angipars were examined in human lymphocytes treated with CP in vitro. Materials and Methods: Isolate...
متن کاملVitamin C pretreatment mitigates the genotoxic effects of sodium arsenite in human lymphocytes in vitro
Article history: Received on: 26/05/2014 Revised on: 02/07/2014 Accepted on: 24/08/2014 Available online: 27/08/2014 The present study was aimed to evaluate Vitamin C (VC) as a potent natural antioxidant to reduce the genotoxic effects of sodium arsenite in human lymphocytes. The study was design to assess the role of VC (10 μg/ml), upon sodium arsenite induced in vitro genotoxicity by using al...
متن کاملGenotoxic and anti-genotoxic effects of vanillic acid against mitomycin C-induced genomic damage in human lymphocytes in vitro.
Vanillic acid, a vegetable phenolic compound, is a strong antioxidant. The aim of the present study was to determine its effects on mitomycin C-induced DNA damage in human blood lymphocyte cultures in vitro, both alone and in combination with mitomycin C (MMC). The cytokinesis block micronucleus test and alkaline comet assay were used to determine genotoxic damage and anti-genotoxic effects of ...
