Prenatal arsenic exposure interferes in postnatal immunocompetence despite an absence of ongoing arsenic exposure
Arsenic (As) readily crosses the placenta and exposure of the fetus may cause adverse consequences later in life, including immunomodulation. In the current study, the question was asked how the immune repertoire might respond in postnatal life when there is no further As exposure. Here, pregnant mi...
