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 …

To understand the effects of methylmercury (MeHg) on neuronal migration in the developing
cerebral cortex, we performed double administrations of MeHg and 5-bromo-2-deoxyuridine …

Background The period of neurogenesis represents a window of susceptibility for in utero
methylmercury (MeHg) exposure. This study examined the toxicokinetics of potentially …

Transplacental administration of methylmercury (MeHg) induces disruption of neuronal
migration in the developing cerebral cortex. However, the effects of MeHg on glial progenitor …

Methylmercury (MeHg) is a potent environmental neurotoxin that shows toxicity to
developing central nervous system (CNS), causing brain damage in children even at low …

Methylmercuric chloride (MMC) was orally administered to pregnant Wistar rats from
gestational day 6 (G6) for 5 consecutive days. After delivery, the neonatal rats were …

Methylmercury (MeHg) is a ubiquitous environmental pollutant that is known to be
neurotoxic, particularly during fetal development. However, the mechanisms responsible for …

Rapid brain growth occurs primarily during the third trimester in humans, whereas in rats it
occurs after parturition. Therefore, we hypothesized that the effects of methylmercury (MeHg) …

Chronic, low-level perinatal exposure to methylmercury (MeHg) is associated with
neurological and motor deficits that appear to result from cerebellar dysfunction …

Methylmercury (MeHg) is a ubiquitous environmental pollutant, which can cross the placenta
and blood brain barrier, thus affecting fetal growth and development. Although previous …
