The current focus on networking and mutual assistance in the management of radiation
accidents or incidents has demonstrated the importance of a joined-up approach in physical …

In recent years, the list of tumor suppressor genes (or candidate TSG) that are inactivated
frequently by epigenetic events rather than classic mutation/deletion events has been …

Ras proteins play a direct causal role in human cancer with activating mutations in Ras
occurring in∼ 30% of tumours. Ras effectors also contribute to cancer, as mutations occur in …

Ionizing radiation (IR) is an ever-present hazard to humans primarily due to its mutagenic,
carcinogenic, and cell killing ability. In addition to causing DNA damage, irradiation initiates …

Background & Aims: Activation of Ras signaling is a hallmark of colorectal cancer (CRC), but
the roles of negative regulators of Ras are not fully understood. Our aim was to address that …

Organisms are affected by different DNA damaging agents naturally present in the
environment or released as a result of human activity. Many defense mechanisms have …

Background: The identification of genoprotectants is a promising strategy for improving
human health. Piper longum has drawn scientific attention because of its diverse biological …

This study investigated the effect of cold atmospheric pressure air plasma pre-treatment on
pea (Pisum sativum L.) seeds. The aim of our study was to verify the plasma impact on DNA …

Our aim was to investigate epigenetic changes in Daphnia magna after a 25-day chronic
external γ irradiation (generation F0 exposed to 6.5 μGy· h–1 or 41.3 mGy· h–1) and their …

Organisms living in an aerobic environment were forced to evolve effective cellular
strategies to detoxify reactive oxygen species. Besides diverse antioxidant enzymes and …
