Potential molecular mechanisms of oxidant-induced carcinogenesis.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Organophosphate (OP) pesticides are widely used in agriculture and homes. Animal studies suggest that even moderate doses are neurodevelopmental toxicants, but there are few studies in humans. OBJECTIVES:We investigated the relationship of prenatal and child OP urinary metabolite levels with children's neur...
