Changes in Gene and Protein Expression of Metalloproteinase-2 and -9 and their Inhibitors TIMP2 and TIMP3 in Different Parts of Fluoride-Exposed Rat Brain

Changes in Gene and Protein Expression of Metalloproteinase-2 and -9 and their Inhibitors TIMP2 and TIMP3 in Different Parts of Fluoride-Exposed Rat Brain

Fluoride (F) exposure decreases brain receptor activity and neurotransmitter production. A recent study has shown that chronic fluoride exposure during childhood can affect cognitive function and decrease intelligence quotient, but the mechanism of this phenomenon is still incomplete. Extracellular...
