Effects of methylmercury and mercuric chloride on differentiation and cell viability in PC12 cells.
The effects of methylmercury (CH3Hg) or mercuric chloride (HgCl(2)) on neurite outgrowth and cell viability were quantified using undifferentiated (unprimed) and differentiated (primed) pheochromocytoma (PC12) cells. In unprimed cells, following 24-h exposure, CH3Hg significantly decreased NGF-stimulated neurite outgrowth at concentrations of 0.3-3 microM. However, HgCl(2) significantly increas...
متن کاملEffect of thimerosal, methylmercury, and mercuric chloride in Jurkat T Cell Line
Mercury is a ubiquitous environmental toxicant that causes a wide range of adverse health effects in humans. Three forms of mercury exist: elemental, inorganic and organic. Each of them has its own profile of toxicity. The aim of the present study was to determine the effect of thimerosal, a topical antiseptic and preservative in vaccines routinely given to children, methyl mercury, and mercuri...
متن کاملBlast Transformation of Lymphocytes from Guinea Pigs, Rats, and Rabbits Induced by Mercuric Chloride in Vitro
The animals used were inbred Hartley strain guinea pigs (400-500 g), inbred Sprague strain rats (300400 g), and a purebred Dutch rabbit (1,300 g). Lymphocytes were obtained from the guinea pig and rat lymph nodes and the rabbit spleen. The animals were anesthetized with ethyl ether and exsanguinated via caridac puncture. The blood was defibrinated, and the serum was collected and filtered throu...
متن کاملcompactifications and representations of transformation semigroups
this thesis deals essentially (but not from all aspects) with the extension of the notion of semigroup compactification and the construction of a general theory of semitopological nonaffine (affine) transformation semigroup compactifications. it determines those compactification which are universal with respect to some algebric or topological properties. as an application of the theory, it is i...
15 صفحه اولDifferential neurotoxic effects of methylmercury and mercuric sulfide in rats.
Methylmercury (MeHg) is an environmental toxicant, while mercuric sulfide (HgS) is a main active component of cinnabar, a Chinese mineral medicine used as a sedative. Because the neurotoxicological effects of HgS were not clearly understood, in this study, we attempted to compare HgS with MeHg in various physiological responses in Sprague-Dawley rats. After oral administration (2 mg/(kg day)) f...
