原论文的结论:
In females, all treated groups died 2-3 times more than controls, and more rapidly.
Females developed large mammary tumors almost always more often than and before controls, the pituitary was the second most disabled organ; the sex hormonal balance was modified by GMO and Roundup treatments.
In treated males, liver congestions and necrosis were 2.5-5.5 times higher.
Marked and severe kidney nephropathies were also generally 1.3-2.3 greater.
Males presented 4 times more large palpable tumors than controls which occurred up to 600 days earlier. Biochemistry data confirmed very significant kidney chronic deficiencies; for all treatments and both sexes, 76% of the altered parameters were kidney related.
These results can be explained by the non linear endocrine-disrupting effects of Roundup, but also by the overexpression of the transgene in the GMO and its metabolic consequences.
其实,这个结果一点也不意外,这也是原论文中说过了的(看下面这句原论文中的话):Our data show that, as is often the case for hormonal diseases, most observed effects in this study were not proportional to the dose of the treatment...
【附录资料】 The world's best-selling weedkiller (Roundup), a genetically modified maize resistant to it and GM corn can cause tumours, multiple organ damage and lead to premature death, a new study has revealed. Its results are published in The Food & Chemical Toxicology Journal (http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.fct.2012.08.005) in New York. Here, experts discuss the significance of the findings.
