Dietary selenium and protein composition influence methylmercury toxicity in mice
Mellingen, Ragnhild Marie (Doctoral thesis, 2024-11-15)Metylkvikksølv (MeHg) er en utberedt kontaminant i naturen som mennesker hovedsakelig blir eksponert for gjennom inntak av fisk. Samtidig inneholder fisk, og mat for øvrig, viktige næringsstoffer som kan påvirke MeHg-metabolisme ... -
Dietary selenomethionine reduce mercury tissue levels and modulate methylmercury induced proteomic and transcriptomic alterations in hippocampi of adolescent BALB/c mice
Mellingen, Ragnhild Marie; Myrmel, Lene Secher; Rasinger, Josef; Lie, Kai Kristoffer; Bernhard, Annette; Madsen, Lise; Nøstbakken, Ole Jakob (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022-10-13)Methylmercury (MeHg) is a well-known environmental contaminant, particularly harmful to the developing brain. The main human dietary exposure to MeHg occurs through seafood consumption. However, seafood also contains several ... -
RNA sequencing and proteomic profiling reveal different alterations by dietary methylmercury in the hippocampal transcriptome and proteome in BALB/c mice
Mellingen, Ragnhild Marie; Myrmel, Lene Secher; Lie, Kai Kristoffer; Rasinger, Josef; Madsen, Lise; Nøstbakken, Ole Jakob (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Methylmercury (MeHg) is a highly neurotoxic form of mercury (Hg) present in seafood. Here, we recorded and compared proteomic and transcriptomic changes in hippocampus of male BALB/c mice exposed to two doses of MeHg. Mice ...
