Effects of orally administered antioxidants on micronuclei and sister chromatid exchange frequency in workers professionally exposed to antineoplastic agents

Do Nurses Have Worse Pregnancy Outcomes Than Non‐Nurses?

“…Some of these occupational exposures may have adverse influences on their reproductive health (11)(12)(13). For example, exposures to organic solvents, antineoplastic drugs, and anesthetic gases has been found to increase the risks for spontaneous abortion, premature delivery, low birthweight, congenital anomalies, and reduced fertility (14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23).

Protective Effects of Fullerene C60 Nanoparticles and Virgin Olive Oil against Genotoxicity Induced by Cyclophosphamide in Rats

“…Moreover, treatment with C 60 was more effective than with VOO in improving the CP-induced genetic toxicity because the percentages of DNA polymorphism in hepatic and cardiac tissues were 8.9% and 9.8% and 12 and 12.7% in CP + C 60 and CP + VOO groups, respectively. Fullerene C 60 causes no damage in DNA strands and had no impact on the level of aberrant chromosomes in vivo and in vitro [ 15 , 37 , 38 ]. In the present study, C 60 and VOO induced an improved DNA level and decreased the chromosomal aberration in CP + C 60 or CP + VOO compared to that in the CP group.…”
