(Essay)
4.8/5
(37)
Correct Answer:
This is the site of CSF which bathes the brain. Metal damage here is separated in direct damage (Hg & Cd), transthyretin production and secretion pathway (Pb), and sequestered protective metal portion (Fe, Ag, Au).

Correct Answer:
Glutamate (immediate-early gene), aglycemia (heat shock/stress protein genes), trimethyltin (stannin expression), ischemia (ubiquitin expression), and methylmercury chloride (developmental gene expression). Other agents that may affect gene expression via oxidative stress (paraquat), mitochondrial disruption (NH3), slow-developing
neurodegeneration (Al), and prolonged CNS depression (solvent exposures).
