Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The genetic background may influence methylmercury (MeHg) metabolism and neurotoxicity. ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporters actively transport various xenobiotics across biological membranes. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the role of ABC polymorphisms as modifiers of prenatal exposure...
