The Impact Factor measures the average number of citations received in a particular year by papers published in the journal during the two preceding years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) IF: 2.4 To calculate the five year Impact Factor, citations are counted in 2017 to the previous five years and divided by the source items published in the previous five years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) 5-Year IF: 2.8 The Immediacy Index is the average number of times an article is cited in the year it is published. The journal Immediacy Index indicates how quickly articles in a journal are cited. Immediacy Index: 0.5 The Eigenfactor score, developed by Jevin West and Carl Bergstrom at the University of Washington, is a rating of the total importance of a scientific journal. Journals are rated according to the number of incoming citations, with citations from highly ranked journals weighted to make a larger contribution to the eigenfactor than those from poorly ranked journals. Eigenfactor: 0.00049 The Journal Citation Indicator (JCI) is a single measurement of the field-normalized citation impact of journals in the Web of Science Core Collection across disciplines. The key words here are that the metric is normalized and cross-disciplinary. JCI: 0.59 SJR: 0.429 SNIP: 0.507 CiteScore™:: 3.9 H-Index: 49

ABSTRACT

We evaluated the effects of mancozeb (Dithane M4-5™), a protective carbamate fungicide, on transplacental carcinogenesis in Swiss albino mice. Mancozeb, a polymeric complex of ethylene bis (dithiocarbamate) manganese with zinc salt, is reported to possess carcinogenic and cocarcinogenic activity in various tumor models. In the present study, pregnant Swiss albino mice were administered mancozeb intraperitoneally on the 14th day of gestation. The first filial generation (F1 progeny) was promoted with a well-known tumor promoter 12-o-tetradecanoyl phorbol-13-acetate (TPA). The results revealed a significantly high tumor incidence (72%) in the F1 progeny of the animals initiated with mancozeb or a well known carcinogen 7,12-dimethyl benzanthracene (DMBA) and promoted with TPA in comparison to animals that were either from mothers given only the vehicle (DMSO) and promoted with TPA in F1 progeny or not promoted with TPA in F1 progeny.No significantly higher tumor incidence was observed in any other experimental groups. These results suggest that mancozeb or its metabolites are capable of crossing the placental barrier and can exert DNA damage and tumor initiating consequences in the fetal cells that, after promotion with TPA, get converted into neoplastic cells.
