Chloroacetonitrile (CAN) induces glutathione depletion and 8-hydroxylation of guanine bases in rat gastric mucosaA E Ahmed
Department of Pathology, University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston 77555 0605, USA
J Biochem Mol Toxicol 13:119-26. 1999....
Induction of oxidative stress and TNF-alpha secretion by dichloroacetonitrile, a water disinfectant by-product, as possible mediators of apoptosis or necrosis in a murine macrophage cell line (RAW)A E Ahmed
Molecular Toxicology Laboratory, Department of Pathology, University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston, TX 77555, USA
Toxicol In Vitro 14:199-210. 2000..These studies indicate that DCAN induces dose-dependent apoptosis or necrosis in RAW cells that could be due to the disturbance in intracellular redox status and initiation of ROI-mediated oxidative mechanisms of cellular damage...
Neurological impairment in fetal mouse brain by drinking water disinfectant byproductsAhmed E Ahmed
Molecular Toxicology Laboratory of the Department of Pathology, 06 09, University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston, TX 77555 0609, USA
Neurotoxicology 26:633-40. 2005..Future studies will examine the molecular mechanisms of these events and its impact on neural development of offspring...
Fetal origin of adverse pregnancy outcome: the water disinfectant by-product chloroacetonitrile induces oxidative stress and apoptosis in mouse fetal brainAhmed E Ahmed
Molecular Toxicology Laboratory, University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston, TX 77550, USA
Brain Res Dev Brain Res 159:1-11. 2005..These events could predispose the fetus to altered brain development leading to APO as well as behavioral and learning and memory deficits...
Dibromoacetonitrile-induced protein oxidation and inhibition of proteasomal activity in rat glioma cellsAhmed E Ahmed
Molecular Toxicology Laboratory, Department of Pathology, University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston, TX, USA
Toxicol Lett 179:29-33. 2008..In conclusion, the present study indicates that exposure of C6 cells to DBAN results in generation of ROS, lipid peroxidation, accumulation of oxidized proteins and inhibition of proteasomal activity...
Whole-body autoradiographic disposition, elimination and placental transport of [14C]tri-o-cresyl phosphate in miceA E Ahmed
Department of Pathology, University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston 77555 0605
J Appl Toxicol 13:259-67. 1993..Brain and spinal cord had the least amount of [14C]TOCP. This finding may support reports that explain the insensitivity of the mice towards organophosphate-induced delayed neurotoxicity (OPIDN) of TOCP...
Studies on the mechanism of urotoxic effects of N,N'-dimethylaminopropionitrile in rats and mice. 1. Biochemical and morphologic characterization of the injury and its relationship to metabolismM M Mumtaz
Department of Pathology, University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston 77550
J Toxicol Environ Health 33:1-17. 1991..These studies indicate that there are species differences in DMAPN toxicity. The differences may be due to differences in the formation of reactive metabolic intermediates of DMAPN...
Chloroacetonitrile induces intrauterine growth restriction and musculoskeletal toxicity in fetal mouseA E Ahmed
Molecular Toxicology Laboratory, Department of Pathology, University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston, TX, USA
Toxicol Ind Health 24:511-8. 2008..In conclusion, intrauterine exposure to low levels of CAN decreases fetal body weight and induces malformations in the musculoskeletal system in mice...
Species difference in the disposition of acrylonitrile: quantitative whole-body autoradiographic study in rats and miceSam Jacob
Department of Pathology, University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston, TX 77555-0605, USA
Toxicol Ind Health 20:9-19. 2004..The study also demonstrated that administration of VCN in rats resulted in covalent interactions and retention of 2-[14C]-VCN/metabolites in the tissues thus exerting more chronic toxicity to rats than to mice...
Effect of route of administration on the disposition of acrylonitrile: quantitative whole-body autoradiographic study in ratsSam Jacob
Department of Pathology, Route 0609, University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston, TX 77555-0609, USA
Pharmacol Res 48:479-88. 2003..v. route of administration. The study also demonstrates that the systemic administration of VCN enhances its covalent interaction and retention in the tissues thus cause more toxicity in these organs...
