genotoxic

1,3-Dithiane (1,3-Dithian) is a protected formaldehyde anion equivalent that could serve as a useful labeled synthon. 1,3-Dithiane is also a sulfur-containing Maillard reaction products found in boiled beef extracts.

4-Hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) (4-HNE) is an oxidative/nitrosative stress biomarker. It is a substrate and an inhibitor of acetaldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2).

Lucidin primeveroside (Lucidin 3-O-primeveroside) is a natural product isolated from the root powder of akane (Rubia akane) and can be used as a coloring agent and a food pigment. Lucidin primeveroside can be metabolically converted to genotoxic compound Lucidin in mice.

4'-Methylacetophenone can be used as a fragrance material. It is wildly occurred in volatile compounds in food and in some natural complex substances.

1-Hydroxyanthraquinone is an anthraquinone that has been found in Morinda officinalis and has genotoxic and carcinogenic activities. 1-Hydroxyanthraquinone generates strong DNA repair response.

N-Acetylglycine is a minor constituent of food that is not genotoxic or acutely toxic and is capable of being used in biological studies of mimetic peptides.N-Acetylglycine acts as a blocker of the N-terminus of a peptide.3-Hydroxyanthranilic acid is a competitive succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor.

Sunset Yellow FCF (Sunset yellow) is an orange azo dye with pH-dependent absorbance.Sunset Yellow FCF is used in food, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.It is used as a colorant food additive in many food products.They may be cytotoxic and genotoxic, so care must be taken when using these materials as food additives.

Illudin S (ILS) is a fungal sesquiterpene secondary metabolite with potent genotoxic and cytotoxic properties.

Cylindrospermopsin, a tricyclic uracil derivative, is a cyanobacterial toxin that was first discovered in an algal bloom contaminating a local drinking supply on Palm Island in Queensland, Australia after an outbreak of a mysterious disease. Cylindrospermopsin targets protein and glutathione synthesis in hepatocytes (IC50s = 1.3 and 2.4 µM, respectively), leading to cell death. [1] It has been shown to inhibit the activity of the uridine monophosphate synthase complex with a Ki value of 10 µM.[2] Cylindrospermopsin is genotoxic, inducing DNA damage as evidenced by double strand breaks and reducing cell viability in HepG2 cells at 0.1-0.5 µg ml.[3]

1. Lucidin (NSC-30546) and its derivatives are genotoxic, it is mutagenic at the hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyl transferase gene locus.

Djalonensone (Alternariol monomethyl ether), an Alternaria toxin, is a strong mutagen in Escherichia coli strain ND-160. Alternariol monomethyl ether has genotoxic properties, it can cause oxidative DNA damage. It also possesses cytotoxic and immunosuppressive properties.

Homobaldrinal has low toxic activity. It has genotoxic activity in the Salmonella/microsome test and the SOS-chromotest.

Riddelline is a potent genotoxic agent in vitro and induces significant elevations in unscheduled DNA synthesis and S-phase synthesis in rat liver.
