Metal Carcinogenesis
56 (3). Another recent report concerned with the incidence of respiratory cancer in nickel workers refers to a total cancer mortality excess of over 3 times that in the population as a whole during the 9-year period 19@9—38, this excess occurring entirely in the two sites referred to above (11). The latter report also points out that in the Clydach Works, “Nodeaths from nasal cancer have be...
متن کاملMetal ions and carcinogenesis.
Metals are essential for the normal functioning of living organisms. Their uses in biological systems are varied, but are frequently associated with sites of critical protein function, such as zinc finger motifs and electron or oxygen carriers. These functions only require essential metals in minute amounts, hence they are termed trace metals. Other metals are, however, less beneficial, owing t...
متن کاملSn(IV) Compounds Interaction with Metal-Schiff Base Complexes
The formation constants and Gibbs free energy for the interaction of RnSnClm (n = m = 2, R = Me, Ph, n-Bu or n = 4, m = 0, R = Ph) compounds as acceptors, with ML complexes (H2L = N,N'-bis(salicylidene)-2-aminobenzylamine (salabza-H2) and its derivatives, M = Mn2+ or Zn2+), as donors in N,N'-dimethylformamide (DMF) as solvent were studied. These parameters were measured by using UV-vis spectrop...
متن کاملAneuploidy as an early mechanistic event in metal carcinogenesis.
Aneuploidy has recently been proposed as an initiating event for carcinogenesis. There is significant evidence that carcinogenic metals induce aneuploidy. Here we review the mechanisms for how carcinogenic metals may induce aneuploidy and the evidence that carcinogenic metals induce an aneugenic effect which can destabilize the genome leading to genomic instability and cancer.
متن کاملMetal interactions in carcinogenesis: enhancement, inhibition
Metals constitute a fundamentally important part of the total human environment. Since human exposure often involves complex mixtures of metal compounds and, possibly, organic compounds which may be carcinogenic per se, interactions between these compounds may add significantly to human cancer risk. Our present knowledge about these kinds of interactions is very limited. The best investigated a...
