Fluoride exposure and hypothyroidism in a Canadian pregnancy cohort.
1. Introduction Fluoride is added to some public water supplies and dental products to prevent dental caries (Community Water Fluoridation, 2019). Drinking water is the largest source of fluoride for children and adults living in fluoridated communities, accounting for 40 %–70 % of daily intake (United States Environmental Protection Agency, n.d.). Black tea is another dietary […]

Exposure to environmental neurotoxic substances and neurodevelopment in children from Latin America and the Caribbean.
Introduction Environmental neurotoxicants are pollutants that can negatively affect many cellular metabolic-processes through different pathways: neuroendocrine/thyroid hormone disruption (Pb, methyl-Hg, organochlorines, and polychlorinated biphenyls-PCB), oxidative stress (Pb, methyl-Hg, organochlorines, and chlorpyrifos), dopamine dysfunction (Pb, methyl-Hg, As, chlorpyrifos, pyrethroids, and organochlorines) (Heyer and Meredith, 2017; Rock and Patisaul, 2018). Pistollato et al. (2020) studied neurotoxic substances […]

Impaired V-ATPase leads to increased lysosomal pH, results in disrupted lysosomal degradation and autophagic flux blockage, contributes to fluoride-induced developmental neurotoxicity.
1. Introduction Fluoride is widespread and unevenly distributed in the environment, and it can be rapidly absorbed into the body via water, food, and air (Johnston and Strobel, 2020). Fluoride consumption at the prescribed level is essential for human health, whereas excessive fluoride exposure is harmful to health. Groundwater, minerals, soil, household chemical products such […]

Probabilistic modelling of developmental neurotoxicity based on a simplified adverse outcome pathway network.
1. Introduction Neurodevelopmental disorders such as impairment of learning and memory, and cognitive dysfunction, are of serious concern due to the health risks and consequences on the developing brain resulting from exposure to exogenous chemicals [1], [2], [3]. The assessment of developmental neurotoxicity (DNT) is not a mandatory requirement in the European Union or the […]

Weakened interaction of ATG14 and the SNARE complex blocks autophagosome-lysosome fusion contributes to fluoride-induced developmental neurotoxicity.
Highlights NaF induced autophagosome-lysosome fusion blockage. NaF weakened the interaction of ATG14 and SNARE complex. ATG14 regulates the SNARE complex in NaF-induced developmental neurotoxicity. ATG14 upregulation restored autophagosome-lysosome fusion and autophagic flux. ATG14 upregulation protects against developmental fluoride neurotoxicity. Fluoride is capable of inducing developmental neurotoxicity, but the mechanisms involved remain unclear. We aimed to […]
