Abstract
INTRODUCTION Heavy metals (HM) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) exposition has been associated with health problems. Therefore, this research evaluated genotoxicity induced in male mice strain CD-1 exposed to benzo[a]anthracene (B[a]A) and benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) and their interaction with Fe, Pb, and Al. METHODS Groups of animals were exposed intraperitoneally to HM, PAHs, and mixtures of both. Peripheral blood samples were taken from 0 to 96 h at 24 h intervals; genotoxicity was determined by micronucleus tests and comet assay. Additionally, toxicity and viability were evaluated. RESULTS HM and PAHs individually were genotoxic. About toxicity, only Al altered polychromatic erythrocytes number and did not change leukocytes viability. Concerning mixtures, Fe + B[a]P, Fe + B[a]A, Pb + B[a]P increased genotoxicity. There were no changes with Pb + B[a]A. Finally, Al mixtures with both PAHs damage was decreased. CONCLUSIONS Exposure to HM and PAH caused genetic damage. Fe, Al, and B[a]A, established a genotoxic potential. Every metal can interact with PAHs in different ways. Also, the micronucleus test and the comet assay demonstrated their high capacity and reliability to determine the genotoxic potential of the compounds evaluated in this work.

Abstract
The reproductive toxicity of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in aquatic organisms has attracted increasing attention from scholars. Currently, research in this field primarily focuses on vertebrates such as zebrafish and other model species. However, there is still a significant knowledge gap in the toxicity of PAHs to invertebrates and its potential mechanisms. Benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) is one of the most representative PAHs. In this study, female Ruditapes philippinarum (R. philippinarum) was treated with B[a]P concentrations of 0, 0.8, 4, and 20 μg/L to investigate reproductive indicators in the proliferative, growth, mature, and spawn stages. Transcriptomics was used to investigate the expression of genes associated with the reproductive endocrine system, DNA repair, autophagy, apoptosis, and ovarian development at different reproductive stages. Our results suggested that B[a]P disrupted the endocrine system by interfering with the production of steroid hormones and the transmission of estrogen signals in female R. philippinarum. The structure of the ovarian DNA duplex is severely damaged under the stress of B[a]P, and a series of cellular responses caused by DNA damage are also interfered. Additionally, we observed a reduction in the gonadosomatic index (GSI) and mature oocytes numbers after B[a]P exposed. Tissue section indicated that severe damage to the ovarian structure at mature and spawn stages. In conclusion, this study combined transcriptomic and toxicological to explore the negative effects on ovarian development induced by B[a]P, focusing on reproductive endocrine disturbance and DNA damage.

SPECTROCHIMICA ACTA. PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2018; 188:640-646.

Abstract
Water-soluble porphyrins, diethoxyphosphorus(V)tetraphenylporphyrin (EtP(V)TPP) and its fluorinated analogue (FEtP(V)TPP), decreased the typical absorption around 340nm of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) under visible light irradiation, indicating oxidative decomposition. A singlet oxygen quencher, sodium azide, and a triplet quencher, potassium iodide, slightly inhibited photosensitized NADH oxidation. However, these inhibitory effects were very small. Furthermore, the fluorescence lifetime of these P(V)porphyrins was decreased by NADH, suggesting the contribution of electron transfer to the singlet excited (S1) state of P(V)porphyrin. The redox potential measurement supports the electron transfer-mediated oxidation of NADH. The quantum yields of NADH photodecomposition by P(V)porphyrins could be estimated from the kinetic data and the effect of these quenchers on NADH oxidation. The obtained values suggest that the electron accepting by the S1 states of P(V)porphyrins triggers a chain reaction of NADH oxidation. This photosensitized reaction may play an important role in the photocytotoxicity of P(V)porphyrins. The axial ligand fluorination of P(V)porphyrins improved electron accepting ability. However, fluorination slightly suppressed static interaction with NADH, resulting in decreased oxidation quantum yield.

Impact of high dietary zinc on zinc accumulation, enzyme activity and proteomic profiles in the pancreas of piglets. J Trace Elem Med Biol 2015; 30:30-6.

Abstract
The exocrine pancreas plays an important role in zinc homeostasis. Feeding very high (2000-3000mgzinc/kg diet) levels of zinc oxide to piglets for short periods is a common practice in the swine industry to improve performance and prevent diseases. The impact on pancreatic function and possible side effects during long-term feeding of high dietary zinc levels are still poorly understood. A total of 54 weaned piglets were either fed with low (57mg/kg, LZn), normal (164mg/kg, NZn) or high (2425mg/kg, HZn) zinc concentration in the diets. After 4 weeks of feeding, ten piglets per treatment were euthanized and pancreas samples were taken. Tissue zinc concentration and metallothionein abundance was greater with HZn compared with NZn and LZn (P<0.05). Similarly, activity of α-amylase, lipase, trypsin and chymotrypsin was higher with HZn as compared with NZn and LZn diets (P<0.05), whereas elastase activity was unchanged. Total trolox equivalent antioxidative capacity of pancreas tissue was higher with HZn diets compared with the other treatments (P<0.05). Pancreatic protein profiles of NZn and HZn fed piglets were obtained by 2D-DIGE technique and revealed 15 differentially expressed proteins out of 2100 detected spots (P<0.05). The differentially expressed proteins aldose reductase, eukaryotic elongation factor II and peroxiredoxin III were confirmed by immunoblotting. Identified proteins include zinc finger-containing transcription factors and proteins mainly associated with oxidative stress response and signal transduction in HZn compared with NZn pigs. Histologic examination however showed no morphologic changes. The results suggest that long-term supply of very high dietary zinc increases zinc and metallothionein concentration, and digestive enzyme activity, but also triggers oxidative stress reactions in the pancreas of young pigs. The data provide new insights into pancreatic function under outbalanced zinc homeostasis.

Abstract
Six water molecules have been used for microsolvation to outline a hydrogen bonded network around complexes of ethylene epoxide with nucleotide bases adenine (EAw), guanine (EGw) and cytosine (ECw). These models have been developed with the MPWB1K-PCM/6-311++G(3df,2p)//MPWB1K/6-31+G(d,p) level of DFT method and calculated S(N)2 type ring opening of the epoxide due to amino group of the nucleotide bases, viz. the N6 position of adenine, N2 position of guanine and N4 position of cytosine. Activation energy (E(act)) for the ring opening was found to be 28.06, 28.64, and 28.37 kcal mol(-1) respectively for EAw, EGw and ECw. If water molecules were not used, the reactions occurred at considerably high value of E(act), viz. 53.51 kcal mol(-1) for EA, 55.76 kcal mol(-1) for EG and 56.93 kcal mol(-1) for EC. The ring opening led to accumulation of negative charge on the developing alkoxide moiety and the water molecules around the charge localized regions showed strong hydrogen bond interactions to provide stability to the intermediate systems EAw-1, EGw-1 and ECw-1. This led to an easy migration of a proton from an activated water molecule to the alkoxide moiety to generate a hydroxide. Almost simultaneously, a proton transfer chain reaction occurred through the hydrogen bonded network of water molecules and resulted in the rupture of one of the N-H bonds of the quaternized amino group. The highest value of E(act) for the proton transfer step of the reaction was 2.17 kcal mol(-1) for EAw, 2.93 kcal mol(-1) for EGw and 0.02 kcal mol(-1) for ECw. Further, the overall reaction was exothermic by 17.99, 22.49 and 13.18 kcal mol(-1) for EAw, EGw and ECw, respectively, suggesting that the reaction is irreversible. Based on geometric features of the epoxide-nucleotide base complexes and the energetics, the highest reactivity is assigned for adenine followed by cytosine and guanine. Epoxide-mediated damage of DNA is reported in the literature and the present results suggest that hydrated DNA bases become highly S(N)2 active on epoxide systems and the occurrence of such reactions can inflict permanent damage to the DNA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Genetic variability of metabolic enzymes may influence the effect of cigarette smoking on intrauterine development and on early neonatal events. AIMS To investigate the role of adenosine deaminase genetic polymorphism on the effect of smoking on neonatal bilirubinemia and developmental parameters. STUDY DESIGN Analysis of association between adenosine deaminase phenotypes and neonatal developmental parameters. Prospective study of serum bilirubin level in relation to adenosine deaminase phenotype. METHODS We have studied 360 consecutive newborn infants from the Caucasian population of Rome. Serum bilirubin concentration was determined at birth and every 24 h for the first five days. RESULTS Overall maternal smoking is associated with a slight decrease in the incidence of phototherapy (13.4% in non smoking vs 11.7% in smoking mothers) and with a reduction of birth weight (3374 g in non smoking mothers vs 3133 g in smoking mothers). There is a significant interaction between smoke and adenosine deaminase. While in non smoking mothers the incidence of phototherapy in carriers of ADA 2 allele is higher than in ADA 1 phenotype, in infants from smoking mothers the pattern is reversed and the incidence of phototherapy in carriers of ADA 2 allele is lower than in infants with ADA 1 phenotype. Other neonatal bilirubin parameters follow a similar pattern of interaction between smoking and ADA. The negative effect of smoke on birth weight is much more evident in infant with ADA 1 phenotype than in those carrying the ADA 2 allele. CONCLUSIONS The data suggest that ADA phenotype modifies the effect of smoking on developmental and bilirubin parameters.

Abstract
Esophageal adenocarcinoma (EA) incidence is increasing rapidly and is associated with a poor prognosis. Identifying biomarkers of disease development and progression would be invaluable tools to inform clinical practice. Two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was used to screen 10 esophageal cell lines representing distinct stages in the development of esophageal cancer. Thirty-three proteins were identified by MALDI-TOF-MS which demonstrated differences in expression across the cell lines. Western blotting and qRT-PCR confirmed increased cathepsin D and aldo-keto reductases 1C2 and 1B10 expression in metaplastic and dysplastic cell lines. Expression of these proteins was further assessed in esophageal epithelium from patients with nonerosive (NERD) and erosive gastro-esophageal reflux disease, Barrett's esophagus (BE) and EA. When compared with normal epithelium of NERD patients, (i) cathepsin D mRNA levels demonstrated a stepwise increase in expression (p<0.05) in erosive, metaplastic and EA tissue; (ii) AKR1B10 expression increased (p<0.05) 3- and 9-fold in erosive and Barrett's epithelium, respectively; and (iii) AKR1C2 levels increased (p<0.05) in erosive and Barrett's epithelium, but were reduced (p<0.05) in EA. These proteins may contribute to disease development via effects on apoptosis, transport of bile acids and retinoid metabolism and should be considered as candidates for further mechanistic and clinical investigations.

Abstract
The formation of 8-hydroxy-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) and strand breaks in DNA by Fenton-type reactions by mixtures of two of five metal ions, iron (II), cadmium (II), nickel (II), chromium (III) or copper (II), has been investigated and compared to their formation by each single metal ion. Salmon sperm DNA and pBluescript K+ plasmid were each incubated with hydrogen peroxide and metal ions. The formation of 8-OHdG declined in the Fe (II) or Cu (II) Fenton reaction upon addition of Cd (II) or Ni (II) ion. In contrast, the Fe (II) reaction upon addition of Cr (III) ion showed an additive influence on the formation of 8-OHdG. Furthermore, the Cu (II) plus Cr (III) reaction showed a synergistic effect. These influences relate to the interaction of metal ions with DNA, the potentials of the metal ions to generate activated oxygen and electron transfer between metal ions. The formation of DNA strand breaks was investigated in plasmid DNA by agarose gel electrophoresis and subsequent densitometry. The formation of DNA strand breaks in the Fe (II) or Cu (II) Fenton reaction decreased upon the addition of Ni (II) ion, as with the formation of 8-OHdG mediated by these metal ions. On the other hand, the formation of DNA strand breaks in the Fe (II) reaction decreased upon addition of Cr (III) ion, and the Cu (II) plus Cr (III) reaction did not show the synergistic influence on DNA strand breaks. These results suggest that interactions between two metal ions can influence the generation of 8-OHdG and the formation of DNA strand breaks and demonstrate that these lesions can arise by different mechanisms.

Abstract
Initial reactions involved in the bacterial degradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) include a ring-dihydroxylation catalyzed by a dioxygenase and a subsequent oxidation of the dihydrodiol products by a dehydrogenase. In this study, the dihydrodiol dehydrogenase from the PAH-degrading Sphingomonas strain CHY-1 has been characterized. The bphB gene encoding PAH dihydrodiol dehydrogenase (PDDH) was cloned and overexpressed as a His-tagged protein. The recombinant protein was purified as a homotetramer with an apparent Mr of 110,000. PDDH oxidized the cis-dihydrodiols derived from biphenyl and eight polycyclic hydrocarbons, including chrysene, benz[a]anthracene, and benzo[a]pyrene, to corresponding catechols. Remarkably, the enzyme oxidized pyrene 4,5-dihydrodiol, whereas pyrene is not metabolized by strain CHY-1. The PAH catechols produced by PDDH rapidly auto-oxidized in air but were regenerated upon reaction of the o-quinones formed with NADH. Kinetic analyses performed under anoxic conditions revealed that the enzyme efficiently utilized two- to four-ring dihydrodiols, with Km values in the range of 1.4 to 7.1 microM, and exhibited a much higher Michaelis constant for NAD+ (Km of 160 microM). At pH 7.0, the specificity constant ranged from (1.3 +/- 0.1) x 10(6) M(-1) s(-1) with benz[a]anthracene 1,2-dihydrodiol to (20.0 +/- 0.8) x 10(6) M(-1) s(-1) with naphthalene 1,2-dihydrodiol. The catalytic activity of the enzyme was 13-fold higher at pH 9.5. PDDH was subjected to inhibition by NADH and by 3,4-dihydroxyphenanthrene, and the inhibition patterns suggested that the mechanism of the reaction was ordered Bi Bi. The regulation of PDDH activity appears as a means to prevent the accumulation of PAH catechols in bacterial cells.

Abstract
The question of whether squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) arising in different sites of lung are caused by different etiological factors is of obvious importance for prevention, early detection and effective treatment. We here subclassified a large series of resected SCCs (74 cases) into 3 tumor-sites, central (main to segmental bronchi), intermediate (subsegmental to sub-subsegmental) and peripheral (distal to sub-subsegmental bronchi), and examined relationships with p53 mutational spectra and smoking history to provide clues to etiological factors. The rate for G-->A transitions at CpG sites considered to be caused by endogenous mechanism was higher in central (40%) than in intermediate (0%) and peripheral (14%) lesions, in spite of highest percentage of heavy smokers. In contrast, G-->T transversions associated with tobacco smoke carcinogens were most frequent (50%) in the intermediate location, although proportions of heavy smoker's ratio were the same among the locations when confined to p53 mutation cases. In the periphery, other mutations were highest (67%) compared with 33 and 50% in the central and intermediate regions, respectively. Thus, different etiological factors may be playing causal roles in the development of SCCs in different locations of bronchial tree. Furthermore, the results suggest that more extensive study of the influence of tobacco smoke carcinogens on endogenous mechanisms is warranted.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen and nitrogen species are known to participate in a wide variety of human diseases. Oxidative DNAdamage is involved in chemical carcinogenesis and aging. Monocyclic chemicals induce mainly oxidative DNAdamage, whereas polycyclic chemicals can induce oxidative DNA damage in addition to DNA adduct formation. Recently, chronic infection and inflammation have been recognized as important factors for carcinogenesis. Nitrative DNA damage as well as oxidative DNA damage is induced in relation to inflammationrelated carcinogenesis. The authors examined the formation of 8-nitroguanine, a nitrative DNA lesion, in humans and animals under inflammatory conditions. An immunofluorescence labeling study demonstrated that 8-nitroguanine was strongly formed in gastric gland epithelial cells in gastritis patients with H. pylori infection, in hepatocytes in patients with hepatitis C, and in oral epithelium of patients with oral lichen planus. 8-Nitroguanine was also formed in colonic epithelial cells of model mice of inflammatory bowel diseases and patients with ulcerative colitis. Interestingly, 8-nitroguanine was formed at the sites of carcinogenesis regardless of etiology. Therefore, 8-nitroguanine could be used as a potential biomarker to evaluate the risk of inflammation- related carcinogenesis.

Abstract
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are ubiquitous environmental pollutants and procarcinogens that require activation by host metabolism. Metabolic activation of PAHs by aldo-keto reductases (AKRs) leads to formation of reactive and redox active o-quinones, which may cause oxidatively generated DNA damage. Spectrophotometric assays showed that NADPH caused PAH o-quinones to enter futile redox cycles, which result in the depletion of excess cofactor. Copper(II) amplified NADPH-dependent redox cycling of the o-quinones. Concurrent with NADPH oxidation, molecular oxygen was consumed, indicating the production of ROS. To determine whether PAH o-quinones can cause 8-oxo-dGuo formation in salmon testis DNA, three prerequisite experimental conditions were satisfied. Quantitative complete enzymatic hydrolysis of DNA was achieved, adventitious oxidation of dGuo was eliminated by the use of chelex and desferal, and basal levels of less than 2.0 8-oxo-dGuo/10(5) dGuo were obtained. The HPLC-ECD analytical method was validated by spiking the DNA with standard 8-oxo-dGuo and demonstrating quantitative recovery. HPLC-ECD analysis revealed that in the presence of NADPH and Cu(II), submicromolar concentrations of PAH o-quinones generated >60.0 8-oxo-dGuo adducts/10(5) dGuo. The rank order of 8-oxo-dGuo generated in isolated DNA was NP-1,2-dione > BA-3,4-dione > 7,12-DMBA-3,4-dione > BP-7,8-dione. The formation of 8-oxo-dGuo by PAH o-quinones was concentration-dependent. It was completely or partially inhibited when catalase, tiron, or a Cu(I) specific chelator, bathocuproine, was added, indicating the requirement for H(2)O(2), O(2)(-), and Cu(I), respectively. Methional, which is a copper-hydroperoxo complex [Cu(I)OOH] scavenger, also suppressed 8-oxo-dGuo formation. By contrast, mannitol, sodium benzoate, and sodium formate, which act as hydroxyl radical scavengers, did not block its formation. Sodium azide, which can act as both a hydroxyl radical and a (1)O(2) scavenger, abolished the formation of 8-oxo-dGuo. These data showed that the production of 8-oxo-dGuo was dependent on Cu(II)/Cu(I) catalyzed redox cycling of PAH o-quinones to produce ROS and that the immediate oxidant was not hydroxyl radical or Cu(I)OOH and that it is more likely (1)O(2), which can produce a 4,8-endoperoxide-dGuo intermediate.
