Toxic Effects of Cobalt on Erythroid Progenitor Cells.

Cobalt is a crucial trace element that widely exists in natural environments and is necessary for normal physiological function. However, excessive cobalt exposure leads to various adverse health effects, especially hematological and endocrine dysfunctions. Here, we investigated the toxicity of cobalt on early erythropoiesis by using ex vivo cultured erythroid progenitor cells (EPCs).

Bisphenol AP Exposure-Induced Inflammatory Response in Zebrafish Embryos Revealed by Transcriptomic Analysis.

Bisphenol AP (BPAP) is a bisphenol analogue that is used as a substitute for BPA in industrial production and is now commonly found in the environment. Currently, there is limited information available on its developmental toxicity in aquatic organisms. This study exploited zebrafish embryos to investigate the adverse effects of BPAP exposure during their early life stages.
