Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Justin N. Treas investigates the effects of chronic exposure to environmental agents, such as arsenic and estrogen, on human prostate epithelial cells. His research has examined how these exposures influence cell survival, DNA damage, and malignant transformation. Specifically, his work has explored the potential role of epigenetic modifications, including DNA hypermethylation, in these processes. Treas has also investigated the impact of xenobiotics on DNA repair mechanisms and gene expression, as seen in his studies on breast cancer cells treated with green tea polyphenols and epigenetic modulators. His research has been published in journals focusing on toxicology, environmental health, and cancer biology. He has a publication record of nine papers with 283 citations and an h-index of 7.
