Abstract
The cytotoxic and cytogenetic effect of sodium arsenite and sodium arsenate on Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells is reported. Chromosome aberrations were induced with both arsenic compounds. Trivalent arsenic was more clastogenic than pentavalent arsenic. Sodium arsenite was also shown to produce increased sister chromatid exchange in CHO cells and increased chromosome breakage in human lymphocytes.

## Abstract The effect of exogenous adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and other nucleotides on the transport of Na in various mammalian red cells has been studied. While they have no effect on the transport of Na in human and cat red cells, in dog red cells adenosine and its monoβ, diβ, and triphosphory
Arecoline, an active alkaloid of Areca catechu L., and sodium nitrite, a food additive, are highly cytotoxic and cytostatic on the Hep 2 cell line when administered in an acidic environment (pH 4.2) in the presence of S-9 mixture. Hep 2 cells (10(6)) were treated with either 0.145, 0.725 or 1.449 mM
## Abstract Short wavelength visible light (<470β480 nm) emmitted from ordinary light sources is detrimental to unfertilized hamster eggs in that prolonged exposure to the light disturbs the completion of normal meiosis after the eggs are penetrated by spermatozoa. The fluorescent light commonly us
Other than its known effects on the cardiovascular system, angiotensin II (Ang II) stimulates cell growth in several cell types. In this study, we examined whether it also might affect bone cell metabolism. Ang II stimulated DNA and collagen synthesis and decreased alkaline phosphatase (AP) activity
## Abstract The effects of pectenotoxinβI (PTX~1~), a nondiarrheagenic toxin from mussels, on liver cells were investigated by fluorescence microscopy. The in vitro application of PTX~1~, to these cells induced reduction in number and loss in radial arrangement of microtubules. It also induced disr
