In vitro genotoxicity assessment of graphene quantum dots nanoparticles: A metabolism-dependent response

Alana da Cunha Goldstein et al.

Summary: Nanomaterials, especially carbon nano-materials like graphene quantum dots (GQD), are being extensively studied for their various biomedical applications. However, the toxicological effects of GQD on human health and the environment are still not well understood. In this study, mutagenicity, cytotoxicity, and genotoxicity of GQD were evaluated using alternative methods recommended in regulatory toxicology guidelines. The results showed that GQD induced mutagenicity in certain strains of bacteria and caused cytotoxic and genotoxic effects in mammalian cells. The study also revealed the importance of liver metabolism in the detoxification process of GQD.

Drug development, Brazilian biodiversity and political choices: Where are we heading?

Paulo Michel Pinheiro Ferreira et al.

Summary: The aim of this review is to acknowledge the structural advantages of natural products for therapeutic drug design, emphasize the importance of wildlife conservation for scientific and commercial progress in Brazilian regions, and highlight the damaging effects of governmental regulations on biodiversity protection. However, since 2019, all Brazilian biomes and connected ecosystems have been systematically threatened by fire, deforestation, monocultures, cattle raising, mining, and oil spills as a result of financial cuts in key institutions overseeing environmental stability. Nonetheless, natural chemical entities and traditional knowledge play a vital role in converting Brazil into a self-sufficient country for pharmaceutical supplies, cosmetics, and food production.

Doxorubicin-An Agent with Multiple Mechanisms of Anticancer Activity

Mateusz Kciuk et al.

Summary: Doxorubicin (DOX) is a key component in current anti-cancer treatment regimens, but its precise mechanisms of action remain unclear. Recent evidence suggests that DOX exhibits pleiotropic anticancer activity, including DNA damage, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, apoptosis, senescence, autophagy, ferroptosis, and pyroptosis induction, as well as immunomodulation. This review aims to gather information on the anticancer mechanisms of DOX and its impact on the anti-tumor immune response, providing a rationale for the importance of DOX in modern cancer therapy.

Chemopreventive Activity of Ellagitannins from Acer pseudosieboldianum (Pax) Komarov Leaves on Prostate Cancer Cells

Se-Yeon Son et al.

Summary: Several compounds isolated from Acer pseudosieboldianum leaves showed potent anti-proliferative and apoptosis-promoting activities against prostate cancer cells. Among these compounds, ellagitannins in the dehydrohexahydroxydiphenoyl group exhibited the most inhibitory activity on DNA methyltransferase and glutathione S-transferase P1 methyl removing and re-expression activities.

Chemopreventive effect and induction of DNA repair by oenothein B ellagitannin isolated from leaves of Eugenia uniflora in Swiss Webster treated mice

Cinthia Aparecida Silva et al.

Summary: Oenothein B (OeB) is a dimeric ellagitannin with potent antioxidative, antitumor, immunomodulatory, and anti-inflammatory properties. This study investigated the mutagenic and antimutagenic actions of OeB using Salmonella typhimurium strains with the Ames test. The results showed that OeB had no mutagenic or antimutagenic activity in the Ames test. However, it exhibited antigenotoxic and anticytotoxic effects against cyclophosphamide-induced DNA damage in mouse bone marrow cells. Histopathological analyses also revealed that OeB attenuated the toxic effects of cyclophosphamide in mouse liver and kidneys. These findings suggest that OeB protects DNA against damaging agents and induces post-damage DNA repair.

In vitrohematotoxicity ofVernonanthura polyanthesleaf aqueous extract and its fractions

Jamira Dias Rocha et al.

Summary: Vernonanthura polyanthes, popularly known as 'assa-peixe', is widely used in Brazil for treating respiratory tract problems. This study investigated the chemical safety and cytogenotoxic potential of the plant. The results showed that the plant extract and its fractions had cytotoxic and genotoxic effects on human erythrocytes and lymphocytes. Additionally, the extract and fractions enhanced the cytotoxicity of a known cytotoxic drug while reducing its genotoxicity.

Maria Del Carmen Garcia-Rodriguez et al.

Summary: This study revealed that EGCG can reduce oxidative stress induced by chromium(VI) by increasing 8-OHdG levels and SOD activity, thereby reducing DNA damage and cell apoptosis. Pre-administration of EGCG before CrO3 treatment effectively reduced micronucleus formation, decreased apoptotic and necrotic cell numbers, and restored intracellular antioxidant capacity and SOD activity.
