Early Effects of Organophosphate Compounds on In Vitro Intracellular Signaling and Levels of Active Neurotrophin Receptors, and on In Vivo Neurotrophin Concentrations

Organophosphorus (OP) compounds are found in household pest control products, plastics, and petroleum. Due to the neurotoxic nature of OP compounds, exposure can cause both acute and delayed symptoms, including organophosphate-induced delayed neuropathy (OPIDN). This syndrome is characterized by W...
