Effects of Physiologically Relevant Species of Organic Mercury on Mesenchymal Stem Cells and Neural Precursor Cells
The results indicate that MSCs are more resistant to MeHg toxicity, whereas NPCs display markedly susceptibility. These findings highlight the distinct cellular responses to MeHg exposure. The disruption of antioxidant defenses, particularly in NPCs, may promote oxidative stress and ultimately lead to cell death.
