Journal ArticleDOI
Potential adverse health effects of ingested micro- and nanoplastics on humans. Lessons learned from in vivo and in vitro mammalian models
TL;DR: This review is to complement previous reviews on this topic by providing new studies related to exposure, absorption, and toxicity in mammalian in vivo and in vitro systems with respect to novel information, gaps and limitations hindering attainment of firm conclusions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nanoplastics as a potential environmental health factor: effects of polystyrene nanoparticles on human intestinal epithelial Caco-2 cells
Constanza Cortés,Josefa Domenech,Marcela Salazar,Susana Pastor,Susana Pastor,Ricard Marcos,Ricard Marcos,Alba Hernández,Alba Hernández +8 more
TL;DR: This work evaluated micro-/nanoplastics' ability to penetrate the cells, and their potential toxic/genotoxic effects, using polystyrene MNPLs, as they are a widespread model of synthetic polymer, using nanoparticles with (y-nPS) or without ( nPS) a fluorescent label.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prognostic factors for relapse in stage i seminoma: a new nomogram derived from three consecutive, risk-adapted studies from the spanish germ cell cancer group (SGCCG)
Jorge Aparicio,Pablo Maroto,X. Garcia del Muro,Alfonso Sánchez-Muñoz,Josep Guma,Mireia Margeli,A. Saenz,N. Sagastibelza,Daniel Castellano,J. A. Arranz,David Hervás,Roma Bastus,A. Fernández-Aramburo,Javier Sastre,J. Terrasa,Marta López-Brea,J. Dorca,D. Almenar,Joan Carles,Alba Hernández,J.R. Germà +20 more
TL;DR: Long-term follow-up confirms the risk-adapted approach as an effective option for patients with stage I seminoma, and the pattern of relapses after adjuvant chemotherapy is similar to that observed following surveillance.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Highly Sensitive Genetic Protocol to Detect NF1 Mutations
María Carmen Valero,Yolanda Martín,Elisabete Hernández-Imaz,Alba Hernández,German Melean,Ana Valero,Francisco Javier Rodríguez-Álvarez,Dolores Tellería,Concepción Hernández-Chico +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a method for detecting germline mutations was developed by combining an original RNA-based cDNA-PCR mutation detection method and denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography (DHPLC) with multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA).
Journal ArticleDOI
Antioxidant and anti-genotoxic properties of cerium oxide nanoparticles in a pulmonary-like cell system.
TL;DR: Its pre-treatment significantly reduced the intracellular production of ROS induced by KBrO3 and a reduction in the levels of DNA oxidative damage was observed, which would support the potential usefulness of CeO2-NP as a pharmacological agent to be used against diseases caused by oxidative stress.
