TL;DR: The present results suggest that silver nanoparticles do not induce genetic toxicity in male and female rat bone marrow in vivo, and the tissue distribution of silver nanopaticles did show a dose-dependent accumulation of silver content in all the tissues examined.

TL;DR: The correlation between duodenal DMT1 and MTP1 expression and Cd body burden in rats suggests an important role of DMT/MTP1 in Cd absorption.

TL;DR: Whether the oral administration of Lactobacillus plantarum CJLP133 improves pediatric AD is examined to examine whether the therapeutic effects of probiotics are improved.

TL;DR: Depletion of the body Fe stores dramatically upregulated DMT1 and MTP1 mRNA expression in the duodenum as well as moderately upregulating their expression in several other peripheral tissues, suggesting they may play an important role in not only maintaining Fe levels but also facilitating the accumulation of Cd in the body of mammals.

TL;DR: The blood Hg level in Korean adults is higher than that in USA and other Western countries, while it is similar to or lower than thatin other Asian countries, influenced by sociodemographic factors and individual lifestyles including dietary habits.
