[ 1 ] - Embryo Toxic Effects of Depleted Uranium on the Morphology of the Mouse Fetus

AbstractAlthough the biokinetics, metabolism, and chemical toxicity of uranium are well known, until recently little attention was paid to the potential toxic effects of uranium on reproduction and development in mammals. In recent years, it has been shown that uranium is a developmental toxicant when given orally or subcutaneously (SC) to mice. Decreased fertility, embryo/fetal toxicity inclu...

[ 2 ] - Toxicity of Arsenic (III) on Isolated Liver Mitochondria: A New Mechanistic Approach

Arsenic exposure mainly through food and water has been shown to be associated with increased incidence of numerous cancers and non-cancer harmful health. It is also used in cancer chemotherapy and treatment of several cancer types due to its apoptogenic effects in the various cancer and normal cell lines. We have already reported that liver is the storage site and important target organ in As ...
