Assessing Lung and Skin Cancer Risks for Steel and Iron Manufacturing Industry Workers Exposed to Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons by Ying-Fang Wang, Yu-Chieh Kuo, Ming-Yeng Lin, Perng-Jy Tsai

“…The estimated lifetime excessive lung cancer risks for the latter (2.09 × 10−3) were lower than that of the former (3.43 × 10-3–8.84 × 10−3), they were all higher than the significant risk (10−3) defined by the US Supreme Court. The mean whole-body total PAH dermal exposure levels were 2.84 × 105–7.45 × 105 ng day−1, and those body surfaces uncovered by clothes were found with higher exposure levels. …”

On the nature of picobirnaviruses by A. Yu. Kashnikov, N. V. Epifanova, N. A. Novikova

“…The genome saturation with the Shine–Dalgarno sequences, as well as the preservation of this saturation in the progeny, according to scientists, allows us to attribute PBVs to prokaryotic viruses. On the other hand, there is a possibility that PBVs belong to viruses of eukaryotic hosts – fungi or invertebrates, since PBV­like sequences similar to the genome of fungal viruses from the families of mitoviruses and partitiviruses have been identified. …”

<i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> Proteins Implicated in the Reduced Virulence of <i>sarA</i> and <i>sarA/agr</i> Mutants in Osteomyelitis by Karen E. Beenken, Mara J. Campbell, Stephanie D. Byrum, Rick D. Edmondson, Samuel G. Mackintosh, Alan J. Tackett, Mark S. Smeltzer

“…Based on this, we used a mass-based proteomics approach to compare the proteomes of LAC, its isogenic <i>agr</i>, <i>sarA</i>, and <i>sarA/agr</i> mutants, and isogenic derivatives of all four of these strains unable to produce the extracellular proteases aureolysin, SspA, SspB, ScpA, or SplA-F. This allowed us to identify proteins that were present in reduced amounts in <i>sarA</i>, and <i>sarA</i>/<i>agr</i> mutants owing to the increased production of extracellular proteases. …”
