In the new results, Roundup MON 52276 was found to reduce the levels of miR-22 and miR-17, whereas glyphosate decreased the level of miR-30 and increased the amount of miR-10. These changes in miRNAs are important because they are known to alter the expression of crucial cell growth regulator genes, which can lead to the development of cancer.
KEY FINDINGS
1. Ending animal testing is not yet feasible
2. Roundup is more toxic than glyphosate
3. Results could allow survey of human population for glyphosate herbicide exposure
4. “Safe” and “no effect” doses were shown to be harmful
