The fetal brain is particularly plastic, and may be concurrently affected by chemical exposure malnutritional factors. Selenium essential for the developing brain, excess manganese exert neurotoxic effects. However, few epidemiological studies have evaluated interaction of selenium assessed in different prenatal stages on postnatal neurodevelopmental trajectories. This study contained 1024 mother-child pairs Shanghai-birth-cohort from 2013 to 2016 recruited since early/before pregnancy with complete data levels infant Whole blood early around birth were measured inductively-coupled-plasma-mass-spectrometry (ICP-MS), children's cognitive development was at 6, 12, 24 months age using Age & Stage-Questionnaire (ASQ)-3 Bayley-III. Multiple linear regression used investigate 1.82 ± 0.98 μg/dL 13.53 2.70 maternal pregnancy, 5.06 1.67 11.81 3.35 umbilical cord blood, respectively. Higher Se associated better neurocognitive performances or consistently-high-level trajectory (P < 0.05), more significant associations observed than birth. such positive relationships became non-significant even adverse high (vs. low) status, effect differences between low pregnancy.

Developmental Manganese Exposure Causes Lasting Attention Deficits Accompanied by Dysregulation of mTOR Signaling and Catecholaminergic Gene Expression in Brain Prefrontal Cortex

Elevated manganese (Mn) exposure is associated with attentional deficits in children, and an environmental risk factor for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). We have shown that developmental Mn causes lasting sensorimotor a rat model of early childhood exposure, these are hypofunctioning catecholaminergic system the prefrontal cortex (PFC), though mechanistic basis not well understood. To address this, male Long-Evans rats were exposed orally to (50 mg/kg/d) over PND 1-21 function was assessed adulthood using 5-Choice Serial Reaction Time Task. Targeted epigenetic gene expression, followed by unbiased differential DNA methylation regulation expression transcriptomics PFC, performed young adult littermates. Results show focused reduced tyrosine hydroxylase, dopamine transporter, methyltransferase 3a. Further, broader dysregulation regulation, inflammation, cell development, neuronal systems. Pathway enrichment analyses uncovered mTOR Wnt signaling pathway genes as significant transcriptomic regulators altered transcriptome, Western blot total, C1 C2 phospho-mTOR confirmed dysregulation. Our findings deepen our understanding how leads dysfunction deficits, which may aid future therapeutic interventions disorders.Attention (ADHD) factors, including neurotoxic agents.

(1) Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) belongs to the group of complex developmental disorders. Novel studies have suggested that genetic and environmental factors equally affect risk ASD. Identification involved in development ASD is therefore crucial for a better understanding its etiology. Whether there causal link between trace elements, brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), remains matter debate requires further studies. (2) In prospective part study, we included 194 children, including an age-matched control group; retrospective 28 children with available MRI were included. All had urine analysis elements performed. those MRI, linear indexes ventricular volumes measured calculated. (3) We found highest vanadium, rubidium, thallium, silver levels These also correlated estimated volume based on subanalysis. However, severity deficits did not correlate our except negatively magnesium. (4) Trace impact ASD, but multi-centric are needed explain pathophysiological mechanisms.

Background Lead has been shown to induce dyslipidemia in rats although the attendant mechanisms have not clearly elucidated. Methods In order investigate time-course of lead-induced perturbations lipid metabolism, male Wistar were exposed 200, 300 and 400 ppm lead as acetate their drinking water for 4, 8 12 weeks. Control animals received distilled same exposure times after which blood, liver, kidney, brain, heart lungs removed from analyzed dynamics spectrophotometrically. Results accumulated organs following descending order: kidney > liver brain lungs. Lead-induced inhibition reverse cholesterol transport was both time-dependent well dose-dependent at 4 weeks evidenced by decrease HDL (17% 4-week ppm, 35, 43 49% doses respectively weeks). Free fatty acids (FFAs) plasma displayed a hormetic-like response with lowest dose instigating 51% FFA while 2-fold 1.5-fold increases respectively. Increases erythrocyte also observed 200 all Increased hepatic, renal cholesterogenesis generally highest occurring organs. Hepatic, renal, cardiac pulmonary phospholipidosis times. Cardiac decreased triacyglycerols increased Hepatic HMG-CoA reductase activities up-regulated most increase (35%) Positive correlations between (r = 0.476, p 0.01), 0.498, 0.01) negative correlation blood -0.523, 0.01). Conclusion These findings indicate that may be mediated through up-regulation activity, enhanced resulting availability FFA.
