Harmful Effects of Inorganic Mercury Exposure on Kidney Cells: Mitochondrial Dynamics Disorder and Excessive Oxidative Stress

Mercury is widely used in industry and has caused global environmental pollution. Inorganic mercury accumulates in the body causes damage to many organs, and the kidney is the most susceptible to the toxic effects of mercury. However, the underlying specific molecular mechanism of renal injury induced by inorganic mercury remains unclear at the cellular level. Therefore, in order to understand its molecular mechanism, we used in vitro method. We...
