BACKGROUND Benzo(a)pyrene (BaP) is an endocrine toxicant that is widely distributed in the environment. The adverse effects of BaP on fertility are well documented, however its effects on fertility in the subsequent generations are not known. We aimed to investigate the transgenerational effects of BaP on male fertility in mice. METHODS Six-week-old male mice (F0) were orally administered BaP...
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are immunotoxicants in fish. In mammals, phase I metabolites are believed to be critically involved in the immunotoxicity of PAHs. This mechanism has been suggested for fish as well. The present study investigates the capacity of immune organs (head kidney, spleen) of rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, to metabolize the prototypic PAH, benzo [a]pyrene (B...
Mycobacterium sp. strain RJGII-135 is capable of degrading a wide range of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), including benzo[a]pyrene (BaP). In this study, critical aspects of degradation were investigated, including compound uptake, relative rates of PAH degradation, and the effects of co-occurring PAH substrates on BaP degradation and mineralization to CO2. Mycobacterium sp. strain RJG...
A major route of exposure to hydrophobic organic contaminants (HOCs), such as benzo[a]pyrene (BaP), is ingestion. Matrix-bound HOCs may become bioavailable after mobilization by the gastrointestinal fluids followed by sorption to the intestinal epithelium. The purpose of this research was to measure the bioavailability of [14C]-BaP bound to pristine soils or field-contaminated sediment using an...
BACKGROUND Acinetobacter baumannii is commonly resistant to nearly all antibiotics due to presence of antibiotic resistance genes and biofilm formation. In this study we determined the presence of certain antibiotic-resistance genes associated with biofilm production and the influence of low iron concentration on expression of the biofilm-associated protein gene (bap) in development of biofilm ...
The objective of this study was to evaluate the reproductive risk associated with exposure of adult male Fisher-344 (F-344) rats to inhaled benzo(a)pyrene (BaP), a ubiquitous environmental toxicant present in cigarette smoke, automobile exhaust fumes and industrial emissions. Rats were assigned randomly to a treatment or control group. Treatment consisted of exposure of rats via nose-only inhal...
Atrial resynchronization resulting from simultaneous pacing of the atria may adjust inter- or intra-atrial asynchrony and prevent atrial fibrillation (AF). The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy of bi-atrial pacing (BAP) in preventing AF, and the safety of this system. The effect of BAP was compared with single site right atrial pacing (RAP) in 6 patients with sick sinus syndrome ...
Benzo(a)pyrene (BaP) is a mutagenic carcinogen that is ubiquitous in our environment. To better understand the toxic effects of BaP and to explore the relationship between toxicity and toxicogenomics profiles, we assessed global mRNA and microRNA (miRNA) expression in Muta™Mouse. Adult male mice were exposed by oral gavage to 25, 50, and 75 mg/kg/day BaP for 28 days. Liver tissue was collected ...
The interaction of the chemical carcinogen benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) with phosphatidylcholine membranes has been investigated by using various physical techniques. Differential scanning calorimetry showed that BaP, at concentrations as low as 2 mol% in mixtures with dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC), dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine, and distearoylphosphatidylcholine, abolished the pretransition a...
A metric compact space M is seen as the closure of the union of a sequence (Mn) of finite n-dense subsets. Extending to M (up to a vanishing uniform distance) Banach-space valued Lipschitz functions defined on Mn, or defining linear continuous near-extension operators for real-valued Lipschitz functions on Mn, uniformly on n is shown to be equivalent to the bounded approximation property for th...
