Environmental causes of central nervous system maldevelopment.
The central nervous system is the most vulnerable of all body systems to developmental injury. This review focuses on developmental processes by which the nervous system is formed and how those processes are known or suspected to be injured by toxic agents. The processes discussed are establishment of neuron numbers; migration of neurons; establishment of connections, neurotransmitter activity,...
متن کاملEnvironmental causes of violence.
Violent and anti-social behavior is usually attributed to social factors, including poverty, poor education, and family instability. There is also evidence that many forms of violent behavior are more frequent in individuals of lower IQ. The role of exposure to environmental contaminants has received little attention as a factor predisposing to violent behavior. However a number of environmenta...
متن کاملCorrigendum: Assisted reproduction causes placental maldevelopment and dysfunction linked to reduced fetal weight in mice
Compelling evidence indicates that stress in utero, as manifested by low birth weight (LBW), increases the risk of metabolic syndrome in adulthood. Singletons conceived by assisted reproductive technology (ART) display a significant increase in LBW risk and ART offspring have a different metabolic profile starting at birth. Here, used mouse as a model, we found that ART resulted in reduced feta...
متن کاملImplications for Maldevelopment
Background. The mechanics involved in development of the inlet component of the morphologically right ventricle are, as yet, undecided. Some argue that this component is derived from the descending limb of the ventricular loop, and that the inlet and apical trabecular components of the muscular ventricular septum have separate developmental origins. Others state that the entirety of the right v...
متن کاملCombating environmental causes of cancer.
791 each agent with the control. The ability to test multiple therapies in a smaller population will become more important as disease subcategories are increasingly defined by specific phenotypic, biologic, and genetic markers, and the available number of patients in a given category becomes a limiting factor in conducting relevant studies. The collaborative trial approach permits direct evalua...
