Ferromagnetically coupled chromium(III) dimer shows luminescence and sensitizes photon upconversion
Chemistry. 2024 Mar 25:e202400856. doi: 10.1002/chem.202400856. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThere has been much progress on mononuclear chromium(III) complexes featuring luminescence and photoredox activity, but dinuclear chromium(III) complexes have remained underexplored in these contexts until now. We identified a tridentate chelate ligand able to accommodate both meridional and facial coordination of chromium(III), to either access a mono- or a dinuclear chromium(III) complex depending on reaction conditions. This chelate ligand causes tetragonally distorted primary coordination spheres around chromium(III) in both c...

Hexavalent chromium exposure activates the non-canonical nuclear factor kappa B pathway to promote immune checkpoint protein programmed death-ligand 1 expression and lung carcinogenesis
Cancer Lett. 2024 Mar 23:216827. doi: 10.1016/j.canlet.2024.216827. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTLung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide; however, the mechanism of lung carcinogenesis has not been clearly defined. Chronic exposure to hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)], a common environmental and occupational pollutant, causes lung cancer, representing an important lung cancer etiology factor. The mechanism of how chronic Cr(VI) exposure causes lung cancer remains largely unknown. By using cell culture and mouse models and bioinformatics analyses of human lung cancer gene expression profiles, this stud...

Physical activity modified association of urinary metals mixture and fasting blood glucose in children: From two panel studies
Environ Res. 2024 Mar 23:118767. doi: 10.1016/j.envres.2024.118767. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThere is unclear evidence available on the associations between multiple metals and fasting blood glucose (FBG) in children, and whether they could be beneficial from physical activity. We included 283 children aged 4-12 years from two panel studies with 4-consecutive morning urinary 13 essential metals and 10 non-essential metals repeated across 3 seasons. We employed multiple inform model, linear mixed model, and quantile g-computation to evaluate associations of single metal and their mixture with FBG and interactions with ...

Chronic low ‐dose chromium VI exposure induces oxidative stress and apoptosis with altered expressions of DNA repair genes and promoter hypermethylation in the liver of Swiss albino mice
AbstractThe present investigation dealt with harmful effects of hexavalent chromium (Cr [VI]) on liver of Swiss albino mice. This variant exhibited cytotoxicity, mutagenicity, and carcinogenicity. Our study focused on elucidating the hepatotoxic effects of chronic low-dose exposure to Cr (VI) (2, 5, and 10  ppm) administered via drinking water for 4 and 8 months. The observed elevation in SGPT, ALP, and SGOT and increased oxidative stress markers unequivocally confirmed the severe disruption of liver homeostasis at these low treatment doses. Noteworthy alterations in histoarchitecture, body weight, and water intake provi...

IJERPH, Vol. 21, Pages 381: Essential and Toxic Elements in Infant Cereal in Brazil: Exposure Risk Assessment
The objective of this study was to assess the cancer and non-cancer risk of exposure to essential and toxic elements in infant cereal in Brazil. In our analyses, we included data from 18 samples of infant cereals made from different raw materials and estimated the incremental lifetime cancer risks and non-cancer hazard quotients (HQs) for their consumption. Rice cereal is particularly concerning because it is immensely popular and usually contains high levels of inorganic arsenic. In addition to arsenic, we assessed aluminum, boron, barium, cadmium, chromium, copper, lead, manganese, nickel, selenium, silver, strontium, an...

Recovery mechanism of heterotrophic ammonia assimilation system under chromium hexavalent stress
This study investigated the inhibitory effects and self-restoration mechanisms of Cr (VI) at various stress levels. The removal efficiencies of NH4+-N and Cr (VI) in the HAA gradually decreased with increasing influent Cr (VI) concentration. Exposure to Cr (VI) increased the amounts of high-molecular-weight proteins in soluble microbial products and stimulated the generation of extracellular polymeric substances. Heterotrophic functional microorganisms with Cr (VI) tolerance, such as Marinobacter and Planktosalinus, were enriched. An assimilation pathway gene (glnA) and a Cr (VI)-related gene (atoB) were also upregulated. ...
