Genetic Susceptibility as Potential Modifier of Health Risks from Exposure to Toxic Elements

2026-03-23

Abstract excerpt

Genetic variability is increasingly recognized as a key determinant of individual susceptibility to heavy metal-induced toxicity. Beyond exposure intensity and duration, inherited differences in genes regulating metal transport, detoxification, and DNA repair can substantially influence internal dose and biological response. To date, research has primarily focused on variants within these pathways, particularly si...
