There is controversy as to whether low-level chronic exposure to methylmercury (MeHg)
through maternal fish consumption may cause subtle effects in the developing child, owing …

Pregnant mice of three inbred strains (BALB/c, C57BL/6J, C57BL/6Cr) were orally given
methylmercury (MMC; 3× 3 mg/kg body weight) or the equivalent volume of phosphate …

The present study was designed to assess the sensitivity of evoked potential techniques to
detect alterations in offspring exposed to methylmercury chloride (MMC) at different …

Mercury exerts a variety of toxic effects, depending on the specific compound and route of
exposure. However, neurotoxicity in virtue of its consequence to health causes the greatest …

Developmental methylmercury (MeHg) exposure can have lasting consequences on neural
development and motor function across the lifespan. Recent evidence for MeHg targeting of …

The developing nervous system is highly susceptible to methylmercury (MeHg), a
widespread environmental neurotoxic contaminant. A wide range of morphological and …

This study examined the role of oxidative stress due to mercury (Hg) exposure on infant's
neurodevelopmental performance. A total of 944 healthy Saudi mothers and their respective …

Various studies on methylmercury (MeHg)-induced toxicity focused on the central nervous
system (CNS) as a primary target. However, MeHg-mediated toxicity is related to metallic …

Hit Reaction Time latencies (HRT) in the Continuous Performance Test (CPT) measure the
speed of visual information processing. The latencies may involve different …

Although the molecular mechanisms underlying methylmercury toxicity are not entirely
understood, the observed neurotoxicity in early-life is attributed to the covalent binding of …
