Multivalent binding of herpesvirus to living cells is tightly regulated during infection.
introduce a new method to force-probe multivalent attachment directly on living cells, and we show, for the first time, direct evidence of a new mechanism by which a herpesvirus surface glycoprotein acts as ...
Heat and health in Antwerp under climate change: Projected impacts and implications for prevention.
change scenarios without adequate prevention based on locally relevant evidence. METHODS: We modelled the urban climate of Antwerp for the summer season during the period 1986-2015, and projected summer ...
Childhood leukaemia near nuclear sites in Belgium, 2002–2008
increased leukaemia incidence rates were found in children aged 0-14 years living in the 0-5, 0-10 and the 0-15 km proximity areas. For this site, there was evidence for a gradient in leukaemia incidence with ...
Isolation and characterization of the compounds responsible for the antimutagenic activity of Combretum microphyllum (Combretaceae) leaf extracts
against 4- NQO and MMC induced mutations as evident in the Ames test. The antimutagenic activity of arjunolic acid may, at least in part, be attributed to its antioxidant activity resulting in the ...
The Vitotox and ToxTracker assays: a two-test combination for quick and reliable assessment of genotoxic hazards
small quantities and high throughput (automatized) technologies. Furthermore, the tests are less laborious. For the cosmetic industry, the generated information can be added in a weight-of-evidence ...
Genetic damage in humans exposed to extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields.
Research on Cancer in the group of ‘possible human carcinogens’ (group 2B) is essentially based on epidemiologic evidence showing an association between MF exposures and childhood leukaemia. Despite many in ...
The Cytome Assay as a Tool to Investigate the Possible Association Between Exposure to Extremely Low Frequency Magnetic Fields and an Increased Risk for Alzheimer's Disease.
experimental evidence supporting this alleged association. We have performed an in vitro cytogenetic laboratory investigation to explore the plausibility of such association. Our investigation was based on ...
In silico tools and transcriptomics analyses in the mutagenicity assessment of cosmetic ingredients: a proof-of-principle on how to add weight to the evidence.
transcriptomics analyses is used to derisk a misleading positive Ames test result. Our data shows that this strategy may represent a valuable tool in a weight-of-evidence approach to further evaluate a positive ...
