Brian D. Corbin,Erin H. Seeley,Andrea Raab,Joerg Feldmann,Michael R. Miller,Victor J. Torres,Kelsi L. Anderson,Brian M. Dattilo,Paul M. Dunman,Russell Gerads,Richard M. Caprioli,Wolfgang Nacken,Walter J. Chazin,Eric P. Skaar +13 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that calprotectin is a critical factor in the innate immune response to infection and metal chelation as a strategy for inhibiting microbial growth inside abscessed tissue is defined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Variation in Arsenic Speciation and Concentration in Paddy Rice Related to Dietary Exposure
TL;DR: Pot experiments show that the proportions of DMAV in the grain are significantly dependent on rice cultivar (p = 0.026) and that plant nutrient status is effected by arsenic exposure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Geographical Variation in Total and Inorganic Arsenic Content of Polished (White) Rice
Andrew A. Meharg,Paul N. Williams,Eureka Adomako,Youssef Y. Lawgali,Claire Deacon,Antia Villada,Robert C. J. Cambell,Guo-Xin Sun,Yong-Guan Zhu,Joerg Feldmann,Andrea Raab,Fang-Jie Zhao,Rafiqul Islam,Shahid Akhtar Hossain,Junta Yanai +14 more
TL;DR: Using country-specific rice consumption data, daily intake of inorganic arsenic was estimated and the associated internal cancer risk was calculated using the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) cancer slope.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanisms of Arsenic Hyperaccumulation in Pteris vittata. Uptake Kinetics, Interactions with Phosphate, and Arsenic Speciation
TL;DR: It is concluded that arsenate is taken up by P. vittata via the phosphate transporters, reduced to arsenite, and sequestered in the fronds primarily as As(III).
Journal ArticleDOI
High percentage inorganic arsenic content of mining impacted and nonimpacted Chinese rice.
Yong-Guan Zhu,Guangxi Sun,Ming Lei,Man Teng,Yuhui Liu,N. C. Chen,Lijing Wang,Anne-Marie Carey,C. Deacon,Andrea Raab,Andrew A. Meharg,Paul N. Williams +11 more
TL;DR: The mean baseline concentrations for As(i) in Chinese market rice based on this survey were estimated to be 96 ng g(-1) while levels in mine-impacted areas were higher with ca.
