Marin Mehandjiev was nominated for the Nobel Prize in chemistry in 2004 year by Ansted University for his contribution to the Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics of Accumulation Processes and its applications, particularly the cancerogenic theory based on the proper protective mechanism of cellular tissues.

0.013532-0 This bacterial ability to degrade high mass polycyclic aromatic compounds is interesting because these compounds are common pollutants spilled in the environment by human activities and tend to accumulate and persist adsorbed to the organic fraction of sediments. Many of those containing 4 to 6 rings are mutagenic, cancerogenic or teratogenic.Eisler, R. (1987).

Lenvatinib acts as a multiple kinase inhibitor. It inhibits the three main vascular endothelial growth factor receptors VEGFR1, 2 and 3, as well as fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFR) 1, 2, 3 and 4, platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) alpha, c-Kit, and the RET proto-oncogene. Some of these proteins play roles in cancerogenic signalling pathways. VEGFR2 inhibition is thought to be the main reason for the most common side effect, hypertension.

Robertson's scientific research focuses on the mechanisms of toxicity of polyhalogenated aromatic hydrocarbons, e.g. polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), dibenzodioxins (PCDDs), dibenzofurans (PCDFs) and various pesticides. His work is including studies of their effects on gene regulation, their metabolism to electrophilic species and their binding to nucleophiles (including amino acids, nucleotides and DNA). Recent work comprises the metabolism of halogenated compounds to show oxidative events, which lead to increased oxidative DNA damage - in important factor in the cancerogenic potential of a compound.

Dr. Yuri Nikiforov (born Юрий Ефимович Никифоров, Sept. 12, 1962, Minsk, Belarus, USSR) is an American scientist who revolutionized the understanding of thyroid cancer, most recently winning a two-year battle in which the World Health Organization has agreed in 2017 to reclassify non-invasive thyroid tumors to non-cancerogenic liaisons. Those tumors typically have some, but not all, characteristics of cancer. The WHO has agreed to change the term for the tumors from Encapsulated Follicular Variant of Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma to Noninvasive Follicular Thyroid Neoplasm With Papillary-like Nuclear Features, or NIFTP.

Dyes are used in many industries, like paper printing or textile. They are often recalcitrant to degradation and in some cases, like some azo dyes, cancerogenic or otherwise toxic. The mechanism the fungi degrade this dyes is their lignolytic enzymes, especially laccase, so white rot mushrooms are the most commonly used. Mycoremediation has proven to be a cheap and effective remediation technology for dyes such as malachite green, nigrosin and basic fuchsin with Aspergillus niger and Phanerochaete chrysosporium and Congo red, a carcinogenic dye recalcitrant to biodegradative processes, direct blue 14 (using Pleurotus).
