Factors influencing susceptibility to metals.

Environmental health perspectives - 1 Jun 1997

Gochfeld M

Abstract excerpt

Although the long-neglected field of human susceptibility to environmental toxicants is currently receiving renewed attention, there is only scant literature on factors influencing susceptibility to heavy metals. Genetic factors may influence the availability of sulfhydryl-containing compounds such as glutathione and metallothionein, which modify the distribution and toxicity of certain metals. Age and gender...
