Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Page B. McKinzie's research focuses on assessing the mutagenic and genotoxic effects of chemical exposures and therapeutic agents. Utilizing molecular biology techniques such as allele-specific competitive blocker PCR (ACB-PCR) and high-fidelity sequencing, McKinzie investigates the induction of mutations in various model systems, including bacterial cells, mammalian cells, and animal models like rats and mice. Recent work has evaluated the mutagenicity of Molnupiravir and N4-hydroxycytidine using HiFi sequencing, and the mutagenicity of N-nitrosodimethylamine in HepaRG cell cultures using error-corrected next-generation sequencing. Further research has examined tumor-associated mutations in the nasal mucosa of rats exposed to formaldehyde and explored the application of oncomutations as biomarkers for chemical risk assessment and cancer risk. McKinzie has a publication record of 36 papers, an h-index of 15, and has been cited 486 times. Key collaborators include Vasily N. Dobrovolsky, Javier R. Revollo, Jaime A. Miranda, and Robert H. Heflich, all from the National Center for Toxicological Research.
