Delayed Contact Hypersensitivity In the Guinea Pig
TL;DR: Results indicate that use of the closed patch on the guinea pig results in a much more sensitive tool which could be of value not only for the routine detection of potential sensitizers, but could serve as the ideal model system for the investigation of delayed contact hypersensitivity.

Sperm shape abnormality and urine mutagenicity in mice treated with niclosamide.
TL;DR: The results of this study suggest that the increase in abnormal sperm depends on the systemic presence of non-conjugated niclosamide metabolites.

Bruno Domon,Kurt Hostettmann +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, three bidesmosidic saponins (1, 3, and 4) have been isolated from the methanolic extract of the berries of Phytolacca dodecandra l'HERIT (Phytolaccaceae) by a combination of rotation locular counter-current chromatography and column chromatography on reversed phase (RP-8) with MeOH/H2O.

Mutagenicity of antiamebic and anthelmintic drugs in the Salmonella typhimurium microsomal test system
TL;DR: 4 amebicides and 6 anthelmintics tested for mutagenicity in the Salmonella typhimurium microsomal test system induced frameshift and base-pair substitution mutations with or without metabolic activation, and urine of mice treated with dehydroemetine or pyrvinium pamoate showed no mutagenic activity.

Further Saponins from Phytolacca dodecandra L′HERIT
TL;DR: In this paper, three new bidesmosidic saponins 1−3 have been isolated from the berries of Phytolacca dodecandra L′HERIT (Phytolaccae) and the structures have been established by spectroscopic (1H-NMR, 13C-NMRI, FAB-MS, DCI-MS and GC/MS) and chemical methods (acid, basic, and enzymatic hydrolysis).
