Studies suggest that chronic lead (Pb) exposure may induce deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)
damage. However, there is no synthesised evidence in this regard. We systematically …

Biomonitoring of human populations exposed to chemical substances that can act as
potential mutagens or carcinogens, may enable the detection of damage and early disease …

Chlorpyrifos (CPF) is one of the most highly prevalent insecticides in freshwater ecosystems
and has been widely detected in fishery and agricultural products worldwide. Moringa …

There are many discrepancies among the results of studies on the genotoxicity of lead. The
aim of the study was to explore lead-induced DNA damage, including oxidative damage, in …

Occupational exposure to heavy metals like lead and cadmium causes a wide range of
biological effects and may elevate the risk of genetic damage. Heavy metal toxicity is now …

Carcinogenic effects from low doses of lead (Pb) exposure to populations have been
suspected but not concluded. Therefore, a large-scale cross-sectional study was conducted …

Oxidative stress and DNA damage are considered as possible mechanisms involved in lead
toxicity. To test this hypothesis, DNA damage and expression variations of aminolevulinic …

Toxicity of lead (Pb) causes several health problems in human beings. The present study
reveals the potential effects of Pb on adult zebrafish (Danio rerio) brain at an …

Despite the well-known toxicity and the efforts to control its exposure, lead still has a serious
health concern, particularly in young ages. Chelation therapy cannot correct the …

Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional, case-control study was conducted for a period
of 18 months (January 2017 to July 2018). A total of 160 subjects were included in the study …
