Involvement of glutamate and reactive oxygen species in methylmercury neurotoxicity

Involvement of glutamate and reactive oxygen species in methylmercury neurotoxicity

This review addresses the mechanisms of methylmercury (MeHg)-induced neurotoxicity, specifically examining the role of oxidative stress in mediating neuronal damage. A number of critical findings point to a central role for astrocytes in mediating MeHg-induced neurotoxicity as evidenced by the follo...
