Impact of Pesticide Use on Health in Developing Countries
Impact of pesticide use on health in developing countries Proceedings of a symposium held in Ottawa, Canada, 1 7-20 September 1990 IDRC CRDI International Development Research Centre Centre de recherches pour le devetoppement international 1 March 1993 Dear Reader/Librarian, IDRC is a public corporation created by the Canadian parliament in 1970 to help developing countries find viable solutions to their problems through research. At the 1992 Earth Summit, IDRC's mandate was broadened to emphasize sustainable development issues. As part of IDRC's strengthened commitment to global action and harüony, we are pleased to send you a complimentary copy of our most recent publication: The impact of pesticide use on health in developing countries (March 1993, 352 pages, 0-88936-560-1, $17.95). The first part of this book presents a brief survey of the global situation and the results of twelve epidemiological studies carried out by researchers from Africa, Latin America, Asia and the Middle East. These focus on poisonings resulting from organophosphates, herbicides, and pyrethroids. The second part illustrates the role of the process of development, production, spraying techniques and legislation in protecting the health of workers. A discussion of the benefits and modalities of access to pertinent information for the prevention of pesticide poisonings is provided in the third section. Finally, in the fourth section, consideration is given to the advantages and disadvantages of certain alternatives to the use of synthetic pesticides in agriculture and public health, such as botanical pesticides and integrated pest management strategies. We hope this book is a valuable addition to your collection. -
Health Effects Support Document for Perfluorooctanoic Acid (PFOA)
United States Office of Water EPA 822-R-16-003 Environmental Protection Mail Code 4304T May 2016 Agency Health Effects Support Document for Perfluorooctanoic Acid (PFOA) Perfluorooctanoic Acid – May 2016 i Health Effects Support Document for Perfluorooctanoic Acid (PFOA) U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Office of Water (4304T) Health and Ecological Criteria Division Washington, DC 20460 EPA Document Number: 822-R-16-003 May 2016 Perfluorooctanoic Acid – May 2016 ii BACKGROUND The Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA), as amended in 1996, requires the Administrator of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to periodically publish a list of unregulated chemical contaminants known or anticipated to occur in public water systems and that may require regulation under SDWA. The SDWA also requires the Agency to make regulatory determinations on at least five contaminants on the Contaminant Candidate List (CCL) every 5 years. For each contaminant on the CCL, before EPA makes a regulatory determination, the Agency needs to obtain sufficient data to conduct analyses on the extent to which the contaminant occurs and the risk it poses to populations via drinking water. Ultimately, this information will assist the Agency in determining the most appropriate course of action in relation to the contaminant (e.g., developing a regulation to control it in drinking water, developing guidance, or deciding not to regulate it). The PFOA health assessment was initiated by the Office of Water, Office of Science and Technology in 2009. The draft Health Effects Support Document for Perfluoroctanoic Acid (PFOA) was completed in 2013 and released for public comment in February 2014. -

Goetzman, Ph.D., Medical Genetics Robert M. O’Doherty, Ph.D., Endocrinology Bennet Van Houten, Ph.D., Molecular Genetics and Developmental Biology Dissertation Advisor: Edward V. Prochownik, M.D., Ph.D., Pediatric Hematology/Oncology ii Copyright © by Lia Rae Edmunds 2015 iii REGULATION OF METABOLISM BY THE ONCOPROTEIN C-MYC Lia Rae Edmunds, Ph.D. University of Pittsburgh, 2015 c-Myc (hereafter Myc), a transcription factor that regulates a variety of cellular functions including growth and differentiation, is deregulated in many different types of cancers. Myc regulates the Warburg effect and oncogenic biosynthesis, but also many aspects of metabolism, believed to be a pivotal point of transformation. Myc is known to control glycolysis and glutaminolysis but little is known about the interplay between glucose, amino acid, and fatty acid oxidation. We hypothesize Myc integrates glucose, amino acid, and fatty acid utilization for energy, and either loss- or gain-of-function will disrupt metabolic homeostasis. Loss of Myc in rat fibroblasts elicits a severe energy deficit, including diminished acetyl-coA levels, to which they respond by enhancing FAO and lipid uptake and storage. Using an in vivo model, we found murine hepatocytes respond to Myc ablation with a milder phenotype. -

For more information, please contact [email protected]. i Abstract MYB transcription factors are one of the largest transcription factor families characterized in plants. They are classified into four types: R1 MYB, R2R3 MYB, R3 MYB and R4 MYB. GmMYB176 is an R1MYB transcription factor that regulates Chalcone synthase (CHS8) gene expression and isoflavonoid biosynthesis in soybean. Silencing of GmMYB176 suppressed the expression of the GmCHS8 gene and reduced the accumulation of isoflavonoids in soybean hairy roots. However, overexpression of GmMYB176 does not alter either GmCHS8 gene expression or isoflavonoid levels suggesting that GmMYB176 alone is not sufficient for GmCHS8 gene regulation. -
