Viability, cell cycle effects, genotoxicity, reactive oxygen species production, and mutagenicity of C 60 fullerenes (C 60 ) and single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) were assessed in the FE1-Muta TM Mouse lung epithelial cell line. None of these particles induced cell death within 24 hr at doses b
## Abstract The SOS chromotest is a simple colorimetric genotoxicity assay that monitors DNA repair by measuring the induction of the gene __sfiA__ in __Escherichia coli__ Kโ12. __E. coli__ PQ300, a diagnostic SOS tester strain for the detection of oxidative genotoxins, carries a mutation in a key
Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative disease that is consequent to the loss of brain dopamine (DA) cells. These abnormalities are thought, in part, to be a manifestation of increased free radical production during the metabolism of catecholamines. The antiapoptic agent, bcl-2, has been shown t
## Abstract We reported previously that low levels of nitric oxide (NO) induced cell death with properties of apoptosis, including chromatin fragmentation and condensation in undifferentiated PC12 pheochromocytoma cells. The present study demonstrates that cytotoxicity of low concentrations of NO i
