Epigenetic Insights into Cadmium's Generational Impact on Hormones

Created using ChatSlide

The study investigates the generational effects of cadmium (Cd) exposure on reproductive health, with a focus on ovarian damage and epigenetic changes. Using pregnant rats, researchers assessed hormonal levels and gene expressions across generations F1 to F3. Significant findings included decreased hormone levels in F2 and restored synthesis in F3, highlighting miRNA and methylation alterations. These results underscore Cd's role in disrupting hormonal synthesis and pose potential...
