13. Genomic instability in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus on hemodialysis
OBJECTIVE: A previous study by our research group evaluated the levels of DNA damage using the comet assay in hemodialysis patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The same blood samples were also evaluated using the cytochalasin B micronucleus assay. A comparison of the results of the two assays is presented here. METHODS: Whole blood samples were collected

14. Relationships between chromatin remodeling and DNA damage repair induced by 8-methoxypsoralen and UVA in yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Eukaryotic cells have developed mechanisms to prevent genomic instability, such as DNA damage detection and repair, control of cell cycle progression and cell death induction. The bifunctional compound furocumarin 8-methoxy-psoralen (8-MOP) is widely used in the treatment of various inflammatory skin diseases. In this review, we summarize recent data about t

15. Estudo das alteraÃÃes hematolÃgicas, bioquÃmicas e genotÃxicas induzidas por agrotÃxicos em agricultores do estado do Piauà / STUDY OF POSSIBLE GENETIC CHANGES INDUCED BY PESTICIDES IN FARMERS IN THE STATE OF PIAUÃ
Exposure to pesticides represents a potential risk to human health. In addition to poisoning, these compounds may interact with DNA, causing degenerative diseases, including cancer. The risk assessment for pesticides was conducted in the municipalities of Picos, Piripiri, Barras and Josà de Freitas with farm workers (exposed group) and 55 administrative off

16. Caracterização molecular de recombinantes intersubtipos do vírus da imunodeficiência humana tipo 1(HIV-1) em pacientes provenientes da epidemia do estado de São Paulo. / Molecular characterization of recombinant intersubtipos of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) in patients from the epidemic in the state of Sao Paulo, Brazil.
The extensive HIV-1 genetic diversity has several implications on the viral adaptive and evolutionary capabilities. This diversity is due to intensive mutational rates derived from error-prone activity of viral reverse transcriptase and RNA genomic instability, generating a highly diverse and heterogeneous viral population named quasispecies. However, even t

17. Genomic instability in human actinic keratosis and squamous cell carcinoma
OBJECTIVE: To compare the repetitive DNA patterns of human actinic keratoses and squamous cell carcinomas to determine the genetic alterations that are associated with malignant transformation. INTRODUCTION: Cancer cells are prone to genomic instability, which is often due to DNA polymerase slippage during the replication of repetitive DNA and to mutations i

18. Avaliação das propriedades antigenotóxicas e antioxidantes do flavonóide quercetina e dos carotenóides bixina e norbixina contra os danos no material genético e distúrbios do estado redox causados pelo cloreto de mercúrio e metilmercúrio, in vitro e in vivo / Evaluation of antigenotoxic and antioxidant properties of the flavonoid quercetin and of the carotenoid bixin and norbixin against DNA-damage and alterations of redox status induced by mercury chloride and methylmercury, in vitro and in vivo
Mercury (Hg) is one of the most hazardous metals in the environment and the major process responsible for its toxicity is oxidative damage; its organic form methylmercury (MeHg) presents the highest toxicity. The main way of exposition to Hg is through inhalation by workers occupationally exposed in several industries and/or through consumption of fishes and

19. Detecção de instabilidade genômica por hibridização genômica comparativa baseada em microarranjos (array CGH) em fetos dismórficos / Detection of genomic instability by microarray-based comparative genomic hybridization (array CGH) in dysmorphic fetuses
Introdução: Para uma parcela significativa de fetos com defeitos congênitos o diagnóstico sindrômico permanece indefinido, dificultando a abordagem perinatal, o estabelecimento de prognóstico e o aconselhamento genético. A incapacidade de detecção de pequenas instabilidades genômicas, atualmente apontadas como provável fator causal nestas condiç�

20. Clinicopathological features and DNA ploidy analysis of tongue squamous cell carcinoma in young patients : a collaborative international study / Analise das caracteristicas clinico-patologicas e da ploidia do DNA em pacientes jovens com carcinoma espinocelular de lingua : um estudo colaborativo internacional
Oral squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) predominately affects elderly patients and frequently develops in association with tobacco and alcohol consumption. However, an increasing of this malignant disease has been observed in patients younger than 40 years of age, who are not exposed to the traditional risk factors. Data regarding oral cancer in young patients ar

21. Evolutionary origins of human apoptosis and genome-stability gene networks
Apoptosis is essential for complex multicellular organisms and its failure is associated with genome instability and cancer. Interactions between apoptosis and genome-maintenance mechanisms have been extensively documented and include transactivation-independent and -dependent functions, in which the tumor-suppressor protein p53 works as a ‘molecular node�

22. The karyotype of Nothoscordum arenarium Herter (Gilliesioideae, Alliaceae) : a populational and cytomolecular analysis
The genus Nothoscordum Kunth comprises approximately 20 species native to South America. Karyologically, the genus is remarkable for its large chromosomes and Robertsonian translocations. Variation in chromosome number has been recorded in a few polyploid species and it is unknown among diploids. This study presents the chromosome number and morphology of 53

23. Leucoplasias bucais: estudo comparativo entre o grau histológico de displasia, imunoexpressão de hMLH1 e p53 e análise quantitativa de AgNOR
hMLH1 is a protein of the mammalian mismatch repair system (MMR), which maintains genomic stability during repeated duplication. Investigations point to a role of hMLH1 in oral carcinogenesis, and its expression pattern may be related to epigenetic events and microsatellite instability in oral leukoplakias and squamous cell carcinomas. It seems that those al

24. Evaluation of beta-carotene microencapsulated antimutagenic activity in cells of rats treated with antitumor doxorubicin using micronucleus test and comet assay / Avaliação da atividade antimutagênica do beta-caroteno microencapsulado em células de ratos tratados com o antitumoral doxorrubicina empregando os ensaios de micronúcleo e cometa
Colorants are commonly used in the food industry. From natural or synthetic origin, these colorants are used in food production in order to recompense the loss of color during manufacturing and stowage processes, guarantee color uniformity and also attribute color to those colorless ones. Among natural pigments, beta-carotene (BC) has been one of the most ad
