Arsenical necrosis of the jaws

After a brief historical review of the use of arsenic in dental practice two cases of arsenical necrosis of the jaws, affecting the maxilla and mandible respectively, are reported. Both patients were treated conservatively over an extended period with excellent results. It is concluded that there is no justification, whatsoever, for the use of arsenic in modern dental practice and that, although prolonged, conservative treatment of chemical necrosis of the jaws is preferable to more radical treatment.     

Assessment of exposure to arsenic among smelter workers: A five-year follow-up

In a group of 43 smelter workers exposed to inorganic arsenic dust for 13-45 years, nerve conduction velocities (NCVs) were significantly lower in two peripheral nerves as compared with matching referents. With multivariate data analysis, a significant negative correlation was found between cumulative absorption of arsenic and NCV in four examined nerves and the sural amplitude. Clinical symptoms of neuropathy and other symptoms related to arsenic exposure were moderate, though the difference between the groups was significant. The mean total absorption of arsenic was calculated to be less than 5 g, and the maximal absorption about 20 g. These data indicate that the adverse effect of arsenic on the peripheral nerves is dependent on long-term exposure rather than on short-term fluctuations in exposure levels. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.     

口服二巯基丁二酸治疗狗路易氏剂中毒

为证实口服二巯基丁二酸（ＤＭＳＡ）治疗路易氏剂中毒的效价，以狗为实验动物，进行实验治疗研究，狗口服ＤＭＳＡ（４０～１２０ｍｇ／ｋｇ）后，２周内未见到有关的生理，生化指标明显变化，该药毒性较小。ＤＭＳＡ可在肠道内较好地被吸收，与静脉注射途径比较，口服组血药浓度上升慢，下降亦慢，可在体内维持较长时间，ＤＭＳＡ在体内促排砷的作用与静脉注射同剂量ＤＭＳＡ（钠盐）相当。狗口服ＤＭＳＡ４０ｍｇ／ｋｇ可对抗路易     

Arsenic trioxide exposure to ovarian carcinoma cells leads to decreased level of topoisomerase II and cytotoxicity

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of arsenic trioxide (As(2)O(3)) on topoisomerase II levels using western blotting method on MDAH 2774 ovarian carcinoma cell culture. Experimental designs were established to determine the cytotoxic effects of As(2)O(3) on MDAH 2774 cells and the IC50 (fatal dose for the 50% of cells) value. Cytotoxicity experiments were carried out using various concentrations of As(2)O(3). The 2,3-bis[2-methyloxy-4-nitro-5-sulfophenyl]-2H-tetrazolium-5-carboxanilide (XTT) and trypan blue dye-exclusion tests were used to evaluate cytotoxicity. Topoisomerase II expressions were investigated using western blotting method with various concentrations of As(2)O(3). Densitometric analysis of topoisomerase 2 bands was carried out using Quantity One 1-D analysis software (Bio-Rad USA, Life Science Research, Hercules, CA). IC50 value of As(2)O(3) was found to be 5 x 10(-6) M for MDAH 2774 cells. When the bands were evaluated, it was observed that there was a decrease in topoisomerase II levels in MDAH 2774 cells with increasing concentrations of As(2)O(3). It was also observed by the densitometric analysis that topoisomerase II expression ratios of MDAH 2774 cells were decreased by approximately 50% at this concentration. Topoisomerase II levels were significantly decreased with the increasing concentrations of As(2)O(3). Inhibition of topoisomerase II enzyme was one of the antiproliferative influence mechanisms of As(2)O(3).
