Epigenetics and Methylmercury-Induced Neurotoxicity, Evidence from Experimental Studies

MeHg is an environmental neurotoxin that can adversely affect the development of the nervous system. The molecular integrity of chromatin in the nucleus is an important target of MeHg. Low levels of MeHg trigger epigenetic mechanisms that may be involved in long-lasting and transgenerational neuroto...
