投稿须知/期刊简介:
Published by Elsevier Science. ISSN: 1382-6689.<br /><br />Environmental Toxicology and Pharmacology publishes the results of studies concerning toxic and pharmacological effects of (human and veterinary) drugs and of environmental contaminants in animals and man.Areas of special interest are: molecular mechanisms of toxicity, biotransformation and toxicokinetics (including toxicokinetic modelling), molecular, biochemical and physiological mechanisms explaining differences in sensitivity between species and individuals, the characterisation of pathophysiological models and mechanisms involved in the development of effects and the identification of biological markers that can be used to study exposure and effects in man and animals. In addition to full length papers, short communications, full-length reviews and mini-reviews, Environmental Toxicology and Pharmacology will publish in depth assessments of special problem areas. The latter publications may exceed the length of a full length paper three to fourfold. A basic requirement is that the assessments are made under the auspices of international groups of leading experts in the fields concerned. The information examined may either consist of data that were already published, or of new data that were obtained within the framework of collaborative research programmes. Provision is also made for the acceptance of minireviews on (classes of) compounds, toxicities or mechanisms, debating recent advances in rapidly developing fields that fall within the scope of the journal.The table of contents for this journal is now available pre-publication, via e-mail, as part of the free ContentsDirect service from Elsevier Science.

Integrated multiscale analysis reveals complex gender-specific changes in lymphocytes of smokers.
Environmental stressors induce specific physiological responses that can be measured in the blood, notably by morphological changes in lymphocytes. Tobacco being the best-known stress in terms of its impact on health, we studied the physiological properties of peripheral blood lymphocytes in a population of 33 healthy non-smokers and smokers. Proteasome amount, mitochondria energy levels, changes in membrane properties and cell and nuclear size were analyzed to obtain 28 parameters from two fluorescence-based techniques: flow cytometry and cell imaging. The results showed that none of the parameters alone identified gender and smoking status, but that statistical analysis of these parameters, whether or not combined with a third set of data, hematological data, can. Statistical analysis of selected parameters clearly discriminates between male and female samples, as well as smokers and non-smokers. Effects of tobacco smoke pollutants are more pronounced in female smokers than in other groups.

Lack of effects of polystyrene micro- and nanoplastics on activity and expression of human drug transporters.
Micro- and nanoplastics (MPs/NPs) constitute emerging and widely-distributed environmental contaminants to which humans are highly exposed. They possibly represent a threat for human health. In order to identify cellular/molecular targets for these plastic particles, we have analysed the effects of exposure to manufactured polystyrene (PS) MPs and NPs on in vitro activity and expression of human membrane drug transporters, known to interact with chemical pollutants. PS MPs and NPs, used at various concentrations (1, 10 or 100 µg/mL), failed to inhibit efflux activities of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters P-glycoprotein, MRPs and BCRP in ABC transporter-expressing cells. Furthermore, PS particles did not impair the transport of P-glycoprotein or BCRP substrates across intestinal Caco-2 cell monolayers. Uptake activities of solute carriers (SLCs) such as OCT1 and OCT2 (handling organic cations) or OATP1B1, OATP1B3, OATP2B1, OAT1 and OAT3 (handling organic anions) were additionally not altered by PS MPs/NPs in HEK-293 cells overexpressing these SLCs. mRNA expression of ABC transporters and of the SLCs OCT1 and OATP2B1 in Caco-2 cells and human hepatic HepaRG cells were finally not impaired by a 48-h exposure to MPs/NPs. Altogether, these data indicate that human drug transporters are unlikely to be direct and univocal targets for synthetic PS MPs/NPs.

LncRNA 51A: A promising diagnostic biomarker for assessing cognitive decline in occupationally exposed aluminum workers.
To assess the diagnostic utility of lncRNA 51 A in detecting cognitive decline among aluminum-exposed workers occupationally. 921 male workers from an aluminum manufacturing facility underwent cognitive assessments, measurement of plasma aluminum levels and quantification of lncRNA 51 A levels. Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves were constructed to assess the diagnostic potential of lncRNA 51 A. Bayesian network model was utilized to predict the likelihood of cognitive decline among the study population. Significant differences in lncRNA 51 A levels, plasma aluminum concentration and MMSE scores were observed between cognitive normal and decline groups. The lncRNA 51 A expression was negatively correlated with MMSE scores. The area under the curve (AUC) was 0.894, with 89.3 % sensitivity and 73.9 % specificity. The Bayesian network model indicated varying probabilities of cognitive decline based on lncRNA 51 A expression levels. Plasma lncRNA 51 A shows potential as an excellent biomarker for cognitive decline diagnosis in aluminum-exposed workers.
