Abstract
The oestrone loading test was carried out on fifteen patients suffering from fluorine liver damage. Three pattern curves of the oestrogen fraction (oestrone, 17?-oestradiol and oestriol) excretion in the urine were established. Our data show that there were disturbances in oestrogen metabolism in patients with fluorine liver damage.

Necessity to Pay Attention to the Effects of Low Fluoride on Human Health: an Overview of Skeletal and Non-skeletal Damages in Epidemiologic Investigations and Laboratory Studies.
Due to the implementation of water improvement and fluoride reduction plans supported by central and local governments in recent years, areas with high fluoride exposure are being gradually decreased. Therefore, it is of practical importance to study the effect of low fluoride on human health. Epidemiologic investigations and in vivo

Correlations between fluoride concentration and free radical parameters in soft tissues of rats.
In previous studies we investigated the impact of subchronic exposure of rats to sodium fluoride administered in their drinking water as it affected selected biochemical parameters in their soft tissues and organs. The activity of glutathione peroxidase and the concentrations of fluoride, reduced glutathione (GSH), substances reacting with thiobarbituric acid (TBARS), and carbonyl groups were determined in kidney,

Hesperidin protects liver and kidney against sodium fluoride-induced toxicity through anti-apoptotic and anti-autophagic mechanisms.
Highlights Hesperidin prevented NaF-induced hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity. Hesperidin attenuated NaF-induced oxidative stress and inflammation. Hesperidin reduced NaF-induced apoptosis and autophagy. Aim High dose of fluoride intake is associated with toxic effects on liver and kidney tissues. One approach to tackle these toxicities is using natural antioxidants as supplements. This study evaluated

Induction of oxidative stress and related transcriptional effects of sodium fluoride in female zebrafish liver
The effects of sodium fluoride (NaF) exposure on the induction of oxidative stress and alteration of gene expressions were studied in the liver of female zebrafish (Danio rerio). Zebrafish, exposed to 15 ppm NaF for 30 and 90 days, exhibited liver histopathology including hyperplassia, cytoplasmic degeneration and nuclear fragmentation. Antioxidant enzyme (GST,

The effects of the inhalation of hydrogen fluoride. II. The response following exposure to low concentration.
The effects of the inhalation of hydrogen-fluoride (7664-39-3) (HF) on several animals was investigated. Five rabbits, three guinea-pigs and two Rhesus-monkeys were exposed to atmospheric HF at a concentration of 0.0152 milligrams per liter for 6 hours a day. This was repeated for 30 days until a total of 309
