An explosion at a Hoffman-LaRoche chemical plant in Seveso, Italy, in 1976 sent a cloud of the herbicide 2,4,5-T over the surrounding countryside, contaminating several thousand people. Dioxin is created as an unwanted by-product during the manufacture of 2,4,5-T, so the Seveso population was exposed to dioxin. For years, optimists have been pointing to Seveso saying, "Dioxin doesn't cause canc...

vide the first line of defense against environmental free radical attack caused by, for example, exposure to UV radiation, ionizing radiation, chemical oxidants, and aerobic microorganisms. Therefore, the skin has developed a complex antioxidant network that includes enzymatic and non-enzymatic components. Prolonged exposure of the skin to UV radiation results in inflammation including erythema...

The cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) should no longer be viewed primarily as a ‘chloride Abstract channel’ but recognized as a channel that also controls the efflux of other physiologically important anions, such as glutathione (GSH) and bicarbonate. More effective approaches to cystic fibrosis treatment may result from this reconceptualization of the CFTR by researchers and clini...
