We determined the effects of low-level prenatal MeHg exposure on neuronal migration in the developing rat cerebral cortex using in utero electroporation. We used offspring rats born to dams that had been exposed to saline or various doses of MeHg

Mercury is an established worldwide environmental pollutant with well-known toxicity affecting neurodevelopment in humans, but the molecular basis of cytotoxicity and the detoxification procedure are still unclear. Here we examined the involvement of the canonical transient receptor potential (TRPC) channel

Archives of environmental contamination and toxicology, 63(4), 628-636 (2012-08-31)
The in vivo and in vitro pharmacokinetics of mercury (Hg) were compared between methylmercury chloride (MeHg·Cl) and methylmercury cysteine (MeHg-Cys) using rats and Caco2 cells because humans can be exposed to MeHg compounds through dietary fish. The in vivo pharmacokinetics

Mangiferin (MGN), a C-glucosylxanthone was investigated for its ability to protect against methylmercury (MeHg) induced neurotoxicity by employing IMR-32 (human neuroblastoma) cell line. MTT [3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide] and clonogenic cell survival assays confirmed the efficacy of MGN supplementation in attenuating MeHg-induced

Toxicology and applied pharmacology, 271(1), 41-48 (2013-04-24)
Exposure to methylmercury (MeHg) acutely at high levels, or via chronic low-level dietary exposure from daily fish consumption, can lead to adverse neurological effects in both the adult and developing conceptus. To determine the impact of variable DNA repair capacity
