Genetic modification and variations in solvent increase the sensitivity of the yeast RAD54-GFP genotoxicity assay.
The yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) RAD54-GFP DNA repair reporter assay (GreenScreen assay, GSA) can be used for early genotoxicity screening in drug discovery. During the initial validation of this preregulatory assay, a subset of known genotoxic compounds that did not give reproducibly clear positive GSA results was identified. Cell permeability, inherent drug resistance mechanisms, metaboli...
متن کاملDo certain countries produce only positive results? A systematic review of controlled trials.
OBJECTIVE To determine whether clinical trials originating in certain countries always have positive results. DATA SOURCES Abstracts of trials from Medline (January 1966-June 1995). STUDY SELECTION Two separate studies were conducted. The first included trials in which the clinical outcome of a group of subjects receiving acupuncture was compared to that of a group receiving placebo, no tre...
متن کاملTraditional Perceptrons Do Not Produce the Overexpectation Effect
Perceptrons are typically viewed as being an artificial neural network that embodies the Rescorla-Wagner model of learning. One of the important properties of the Rescorla-Wagner model was its prediction of the overexpectation effect. However, we show below that a typical perceptron is not capable of generating this effect. This result brings into question assumed relationships between artifici...
متن کاملIntegration of metabolic activation with a predictive toxicogenomics signature to classify genotoxic versus nongenotoxic chemicals in human TK6 cells
The use of integrated approaches in genetic toxicology, including the incorporation of gene expression data to determine the molecular pathways involved in the response, is becoming more common. In a companion article, a genomic biomarker was developed in human TK6 cells to classify chemicals as genotoxic or nongenotoxic. Because TK6 cells are not metabolically competent, we set out to broaden ...
متن کاملWeak Results, Misleading Conclusions
The authors fail to control for relevant "third" variables that could easily explain the weak correlations that they find. Family violence exposure for instance, peer group influences, certainly genetic influences on aggressive behavior are just a few relevant variables that ought either be controlled or at minimum acknowledged as alternate causal agents for (very small) link between video game...
