چکیده
A number of antineoplastic drugs are used to combat with different types of cancer which have also shown to be mutagenic in various test systems. Various antineoplastic drugs such as cisplatin, cyclophosphamide, Tamoxifrn Genecitabine and Paclitaxel etc have shown to be clastogenic effects in various test systems (Garrone et al., 1993; Takeda et al., 2001; Padmalatha Rai and Vijaylakhmi, 2001; Boffetta et al., 2007; Padmanabham et al., 2008).

A comparative study of radioprotection by four Indian medicinal herbs against genotoxicity induced by sub-lethal gamma irradiation in Swiss albino mice
Background: Synthetic radio-protective agents like aminothiols are toxic and FDA approved agent amifostine is no exception. Some Ayurvedic herbs have shown radioprotective potential. This study was carried out to test and compare the radioprotective potential of Curcuma longa (CL) Tinospora cordifolia (TC), Zizyphus mauritiana (ZM) and Ocimum sanctum (OS) against 2Gy gamma irradiation ...
متن کاملProtection against radiation induced hematopoietic damage in bone marrow of Swiss albino mice by Mentha piperita (Linn).
The protective effects of Mentha piperita (Linn) extract against radiation induced hematopoietic damage in bone marrow of Swiss albino mice have been studied. Mice were given either double distilled water or leaf extract of M. piperita orally (1 g/kg b.wt./day) once a day for three consecutive days, and after 30 min of treatments on the third day were exposed to 8 Gy gamma radiation. Mice were ...

Glyphosate (N-(phosphonomethyl) glycine, C(3)H(8)NO(5)P), a herbicide, used to control unwanted annual and perennial plants all over the world. Nevertheless, occupational and environmental exposure to pesticides can pose a threat to nontarget species including human beings. Therefore, in the present study, genotoxic effects of the herbicide glyphosate were analyzed by measuring chromosomal aber...

An . in vivo micronucleus assay using mouse bone marrow for identifying radioprotective effect of cimetidine is described. The influence of cimetidine, an antagonist to histamine H2 receptor, on the kinetics of low and high LET radiations such as gamma rays and neutron induced micronuclei as well as the clastogenic effects of chemicals such as benzene, ara C and mitomycin C was tested in Swiss ...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Genotoxic Effects of Thyroxine Using in Vivo Cytogenetic Test on Swiss Albino Mice
Thyroid hormones enhance aerobic metabolism favoring oxidative stress which may lead to covalent damage of various molecules including DNA. Previous investigations revealed that thyroid hormones induce DNA damage on human lymphocytes and sperm in the in vitro Comet assay. However, cytogenetic evaluation of genotoxic effects of thyroxine gave equivocal results: increase of sister chromatid excha...
