The pathogenesis of trimethyltin chloride-induced nephrotoxicity.
In exploratory studies aimed at elucidating CNS effects due to heavy metal toxicity, signs of compromised renal function were seen in rats. The studies reported here describe the sequential steps of the development of nephrotoxicity by trimethyltin chloride (TMT) in rats. Single doses of 12.25 mg/kg TMT administered orally to 150- to 175-g Long-Evans rats elicited overt signs of toxicity includ...
متن کاملComparative metal oxide nanoparticle toxicity using embryonic zebrafish
Engineered metal oxide nanoparticles (MO NPs) are finding increasing utility in the medical field as anticancer agents. Before validation of in vivo anticancer efficacy can occur, a better understanding of whole-animal toxicity is required. We compared the toxicity of seven widely used semiconductor MO NPs made from zinc oxide (ZnO), titanium dioxide, cerium dioxide and tin dioxide prepared in ...
متن کاملRisk Assessment for Neurobehavioral Toxicity
Background: Brain activity has been investigated by several methods with different principles, notably optical ones. Each method may offer information on distinct physiological or pathological aspects of brain function. The ideal instrument to measure brain activity should include complementary techniques and integrate the resultant information. As a "low cost" approach towards this objective, ...
متن کاملRisk assessment for neurobehavioral toxicity.
A study by the National Academy of Sciences/National Research Council (NAS/NRC) found neurobehavioral toxicity to be one of the areas where almost no data are available for the assessment of toxicity. Using the NAS/NRC report and a data base from the American Conference of Government Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH), an estimate of the number of neurobehavioral toxins in commercial chemicals can b...
متن کاملChapter 6 – NEUROBEHAVIORAL TOXICITY ASSESSMENTS
Testing must characterize cognitive lapses and mood changes in healthy individuals faced with relevant operational stressors, including chemical exposures and interactions with other stressors, and should be based on understanding effects of final common pathways in brain physiology (e.g. hypoor hyperglycemia, and hypoxia, oxidative stress, and inflammation). Stressors may affect a common hiera...
