Abstract

The association between intake of N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA), the most commonly occurring of the volatile nitrosamines derived from foods, and gastric cancer risk has been investigated using data from a case-control study conducted in Northern Italy between 1985 and 1993, including 746 incident cases of gastric cancer and 2,053 controls admitted to hospital for acute, non-neoplastic and non-digestive tract diseases, not related to long-term modifications of diet. Information was collected on frequency of consumption of 29 food items, including selected sources of NDMA. Compared with subjects in the lowest tertile of NDMA intake, the odds ratios (ORs) were 1.1 in the intermediate and 1.6 in the highest tertile of intake. These estimates were not appreciably modified after allowance for total energy intake, other major dietary and non-dietary correlates of gastric cancer, and estimated intake of nitrite and nitrate: the multivariate OR for the highest NDMA intake tertile was 1.4 (95% CI 1.1-1.7). The association was consistent across strata of sex and age, but somewhat stronger in males and in subjects below age 60 (OR in the highest tertile, 1.8). Limitations of exposure assessment and absence of information on other N-nitros...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
