Moon J, Holzhausen EA, Mun Y. Risk of prostate cancer with increasing years of night shift work: A two-stage dose-response meta-analysis with duration of night shift work as exposure dose. Heliyon 2024; 10:e29080.

Abstract
Introduction Night shift work could be a modifiable risk factor for prostate cancer. However, the epidemiological evidence is inconsistent. To summarize the existing evidence on this topic, we conducted a two-stage dose-response meta-analysis. Methods Medical librarians searched PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library on December 30, 2022. Seven criteria were used to determine the inclusion of each study in the present analysis. Results Eleven cohort studies (12 cohort reports; total cases: 9366; and total person-years: 88,238,009) and seven case-control studies (seven case-control reports; total cases: 5593; and total controls: 6876) were included. This study estimated that the risk of prostate cancer increased by 1, 12, 24, and 39% after 1, 10, 20, and 30 years of night shift work exposure, respectively, according to four cohort and five case-control studies. Discussion Seven inclusion criteria were used to determine which studies were eligible for this analysis. Risk ratios from cohort studies and odds ratios from case-control studies were analyzed separately. However, all odds ratios from the case-control studies were excluded because of a high likelihood of publication bias. Moreover, exposure, measured in years of night shift work, was defined based on the information provided by individual studies. Finally, we utilized a recently reported two-stage dose-response meta-analysis method. This study provides evidence that night shift work contributes to the risk of prostate cancer in a dose-dependent manner.

Abstract
Our recent study revealed that fluorescent lamp light can penetrate deep into the brain of mice and rats leading to the development of typical histological characteristics associated with Parkinson's disease such as the loss of dopamine neurons in the substantia nigra. Monochromatic LED lights were thus used in this work to deepen our knowledge on the effects of the major wavelength peaks of fluorescent light on mouse and human dopaminergic cells. In particular, we exposed immortalized dopaminergic MN9D neuronal cells, primary cultures of mouse mesencephalic dopaminergic cells and human dopaminergic neurons differentiated from induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC) to different LED light wavelengths. We found that chronic exposure to LED light reduced overall undifferentiated MN9D cell number, with the most significant effects observed at wavelengths of 485 nm and 610 nm. Moreover, LED light especially at 610 nm was able to negatively impact on the survival of mouse mesencephalic dopaminergic cells and of human dopaminergic neurons derived from hiPSC. Notably, differentiated MN9D dopaminergic cells, which closely resemble mature dopamine neuronal phenotype, acutely exposed for 3 h at 610 nm, showed a clear increase in ROS production and cytotoxicity compared to controls undifferentiated MN9D cells. These increases were even more pronounced by the co-treatment with the oxidative agent H2O2. Collectively, these findings suggest that specific wavelengths, particularly those capable of penetrating deep into the brain, could potentially pose an environmental hazard in relation to Parkinson's disease.
