Altered miRNA Expression in the Cervix During Pregnancy Associated with Lead and Mercury Exposure

1 Sept 2015

Abstract excerpt

AIM: Toxic metals including lead and mercury are associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes. This study aimed to assess the association between miRNA expression in the cervix during pregnancy with lead and mercury levels. MATERIALS & METHODS: We obtained cervical swabs from pregnant women (n = 60) and quantified cervical miRNA expression. Women's blood lead, bone lead and toenail mercury levels were analyzed. We...
