AbstractGlyphosate, a non-selective herbicide, causes in mammals"™ cellular mutagenesis and toxic effects at the embryonic, fetal, and placental levels, even at low concentrations. This study investigated in rats the effects of perinatal exposure to Glyphosate-base herbicide (GLY-BH) on maternal behavior and the hypothalamic and striatal levels of dopamine and serotonin. The pup"™s physical and behavioral devel...
The aim of the present study was to determine the validity of behavior as an early sign of toxicity and respiratory injuries induced by acute exposure to cadmium in adult zebrafish (Danio rerio). The effects of three cadmium concentrations (35, 45, and 55 µg/L) on zebrafish behavior (i.e., general activity, exploratory/motor behavior, climbing to the water surface, tremors, and erratic movements) and gill histo...
As avermectinas e as milbemicinas, muitas vezes também referidas como lactonas macrocíclicas, são os medicamentos antiparasitários mais vendidos no mundo, sendo amplamente utilizados na medicina veterinária, na agricultura e em medicina humana. O objetivo deste trabalho foi o de avaliar os efeitos sexualmente dimórficos da ivermectina (IVM) em camundongos C57BL/6 em modelos animais ligados à emocionalidade. Pa...
Substantial evidence suggests a direct link between periodontitis in pregnant women and subsequent adverse pregnancy outcomes. However, no studies have evaluated the transgenerational effects of periodontitis on the reproductive performance of subsequent generations. The present study investigated whether maternal periodontal disease exerts deleterious transgenerational effects on reproductive performance in F1...
