Arsenic is a toxic metalloid. Infants with a low birth-weight have been observed in areas with high-level arsenic in drinking water ranging from 463 to 1025 μg/L. A distal muscular atrophy side effect has been observed in acute promyelocytic leukemia patients treated with arsenic trioxide
Arsenic, a widely distributed toxic metalloid, has been found to be associated with the low-birth-weight infants and the impairment of muscle regenerative capacity in areas with high levels of arsenic in drinking water. The distal muscular atrophy is one of side effects of arsenic trioxide
In an attempt to develop new herbal therapy, an aqueous extract of the seed of Moringa oleifera was used to screen the effect on arsenic-induced hepatic toxicity in female rat of Wistar strain. Subchronic exposure to sodium arsenite (0.4 ppm/100 g body weight/day via drinking water for a period of
Both arsenic (As) and obesity are associated with brain disorders. However, long term studies to evaluate their concomitant adverse effects on the brain functions are lacking. Present study was conducted to evaluate the long term co-exposure of As and high fat diet (HFD) on memory and brain
In light of the recent lead contamination of the water in Flint, Michigan and its potential adverse outcomes, much research and media attention has turned towards the safety profile of commonly used chelators. Dimercapto-1-propanesulfonic acid (DMPS) typically used in the treatment of lead, mercury
This manuscript reported a case of fatal arsenic poisoning. A woman with schizophrenia took arsenic-containing "pills," which consisted of arsenic trioxide and realgar (arsenic (II) sulfide) and wrapped with gauze. The victim consumed 1.09 and 0.819 g arsenic on two occasions,
Arsenic is a ubiquitous contaminant of many toxic waste sites around the country and experimental animal trials have indicated that arsenic may be immunotoxic to laboratory rodents. Because wild rodents such as the herbivorous cotton rat (Sigmodon hispidus) reside on many of these toxic waste sites,
A young woman suffering from sleeping sickness was treated with melarsoprol. Thirty-eight days after the first administration of this organo-arsenic compound, myalgias, distal paresthesias and rapidly progressive weakness developed in all four limbs. Electrophysiological studies were misleading for
Aim Arsenic, an environmental contaminant, represents a public health problem worldwide. Studies have shown its association with molecular mechanisms related to cardiomyocytes redox balance. However, the microstructure and ultrastructure of cardiac tissue, as well as the activity of its antioxidant
In order to study the toxic consequences of arsenic at different levels on hippocampal neurons of rat, different doses of sodium arsenite (0, 0.08, 0.40, 2.00 and 10.00 mg/L) were given to observe the changes of viability, morphological and biochemical parameters. The results showed that the
Comprehensive electrophysiological studies were performed on 13 patients with arsenic neuropathy. The most prominent finding was a marked abnormality in sensory nerve conduction in the presence of moderate abnormalities in motor nerve conduction. The motor nerve conduction studies and needle EMG
Seven relapsed and/or refractory acute promyelocytic leukaemia patients were treated by arsenic trioxide (As2O3). Four patients (4/7, 57%) achieved complete remission after one to three cycles of treatment and the most common acute side-effect was fluid retention (in six patients, 86%), including
