Journal ArticleDOI
Platinum-DNA adducts assayed in leukocytes of patients with germ cell tumors measured by atomic absorbance spectrometry and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.
Robert J. Motzer,Eddie Reed,Frederica P. Perera,Deliang Tang,Hanadi Shamkhani,Miriam C. Poirier,Wei-Yann Tsai,Ricardo J. Parker,George J. Bosl +8 more
TL;DR: This data indicates that high platinum‐DNA adduct levels in peripheral blood cells have previously been correlated with favorable clinical response to platinum‐based therapy in patients with germ cell tumors and ovarian cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cognitive function of 6-year old children exposed to mold-contaminated homes in early postnatal period. Prospective birth cohort study in Poland.
Wieslaw Jedrychowski,Umberto Maugeri,Frederica P. Perera,Laura Stigter,Jeffrey Jankowski,Maria Butscher,Elzbieta Mroz,Elzbieta Flak,Anita Skarupa,Agata Sowa +9 more
TL;DR: The results of this study draw attention to the harmful effect of early postnatal exposure to indoor molds on children's cognitive development and provide additional evidence on the role of environmental determinants in human cognitive development.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long term effects of prenatal and postnatal airborne PAH exposures on ventilatory lung function of non-asthmatic preadolescent children. Prospective birth cohort study in Krakow.
Wieslaw Jedrychowski,Frederica P. Perera,Umberto Maugeri,Renata Majewska,Elzbieta Mroz,Elzbieta Flak,David Camann,Agata Sowa,Ryszard Jacek +8 more
TL;DR: The results of the study suggest that transplacental exposure to PAH compromises the normal developmental process of respiratory airways and that this effect is compounded by postnatal PAH exposure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relation between prenatal lipid-soluble micronutrient status, environmental pollutant exposure, and birth outcomes
Elizabeth T. Masters,Wieslaw Jedrychowski,Rosemary L. Schleicher,Wei-Yann Tsai,Wei-Yann Tsai,Yi Hsuan Tu,David Camann,Deliang Tang,Frederica P. Perera +8 more
TL;DR: Maternal alpha-tocopherol and cord retinol concentrations were significantly and positively associated with BW and HC, and these micronutrients may have direct effects or may be markers for other underlying determinants of these pregnancy outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
