Mitochondria & Mercury
Typical. The *gang* (including Douglas Charles and Davey who claim to have me killfiled) as usual make this thread trashing me. A definite clue they know I am right, and *organized medicine is exposed.* Being indecent as they are. Keep it up boys, it is very telling. Now back to what they cannot stand. Go to Pubmed and type in mitochondria and mercury. You will get links to 299 papers which explain exactly what mercury does to mitochondria. Read them and weep. |

Mitochondria & Mercury
Brandon C Stahl/aka/Skeptic blathered
Too bad you wouldn't be able to read and understand a single one of them Sad that you lie. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1...ubmed_RVDocSum Histo-cytological responses of Dicentrarchus labrax (L.) following mercury exposure. Giari L, Simoni E, Manera M, Dezfuli BS. Department of Biology and Evolution, University of Ferrara, Via Borsari, 46, 44100 Ferrara, Italy. This work deals with the damaging effects of mercury (Hg concentrations 251, 355, 501mugl(-1)) on the structure and ultrastructure of gills, liver, intestine and kidney of farmed European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax L., 1758) acutely treated for 24 and 48h. The histoarchitecture of the gills of exposed fish was highly modified due to severe oedema, telangiectasia and secondary lamellar fusion. In hepatocytes and enterocytes hydropic cell swelling, alterations to the endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria were noted, in addition to an abundance of myelinoid bodies which were frequently encountered following treatment. In the intestine and renal tubules of exposed European sea bass, rodlet cells (RCs) displayed ultrastructural modifications. Statistical analyses were conducted on the number and the size of selected cell types and structures. Following exposure to mercury for 24 and 48h, the number of chloride cells, RCs and macrophage aggregates were found to have increased significantly in the gills, the intestine and the head kidney. PMID: 17945343 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher] http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1...ubmed_RVDocSum Involvement of glutamate and reactive oxygen species in methylmercury neurotoxicity. Aschner M, Syversen T, Souza DO, Rocha JB, Farina M. Departments of Pediatrics and Pharmacology, Vanderbilt University Medical Center, B3307 Medical Center North, Nashville, TN 37232, USA. This review addresses the mechanisms of methylmercury (MeHg)-induced neurotoxicity, specifically examining the role of oxidative stress in mediating neuronal damage. A number of critical findings point to a central role for astrocytes in mediating MeHg-induced neurotoxicity as evidenced by the following observations: a) MeHg preferentially accumulates in astrocytes; b) MeHg specifically inhibits glutamate uptake in astrocytes; c) neuronal dysfunction is secondary to disturbances in astrocytes. The generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by MeHg has been observed in various experimental paradigms. For example, MeHg enhances ROS formation both in vivo (rodent cerebellum) and in vitro (isolated rat brain synaptosomes), as well as in neuronal and mixed reaggregating cell cultures. Antioxidants, including selenocompounds, can rescue astrocytes from MeHg-induced cytotoxicity by reducing ROS formation. We emphasize that oxidative stress plays a significant role in mediating MeHg-induced neurotoxic damage with active involvement of the mitochondria in this process. Furthermore, we provide a mechanistic overview on oxidative stress induced by MeHg that is triggered by a series of molecular events such as activation of various kinases, stress proteins and other immediate early genes culminating in cell damage.

IMO I have noticed that posts that may be categorized as insults by some members of this group are often provoked by previous actions or posts. I am sure that you will find and post exceptions. Most will understand my point. |

The article states: Organic compounds of mercury such as methylmercury are considered the most toxic forms of the element. Exposures to very small amounts of these compounds can result in devastating neurological damage and death. For fetuses, infants and children, the primary health effects of mercury are on neurological development. Even low levels of mercury exposure such as result from mother's consumption methylmercury in dietary sources can adversely affect the brain and nervous system. Impacts on memory, attention, language and other skills have been found in children exposed to moderate levels in the womb. Two questions about this. The level of methylmercury in fish is very low. How much is absorbed from the gut? The absorbed amount must be no more than 3 to 5% I would think. Anyone got the absorption data? Secondly, just how much more toxic is ethylmercury from thimerosal since it is more toxic than methyl mercury and 100% of it is absorbed due to being injected.

So, you're saying that injecting something translates into 100% absorption. You're even dumber than we gave you credit for being and we extended you more credit than the prime-plus housing market.

I went to Pubmed and found 299 articles on mitochondria and mercury. All the articles were discussing inorganic mercury or methylmercury. The various creatures studied were rats, Javan mongoose, dicentrarchus labrax, the frog Rana Kl escolenta, porcine kidney and liver, zebra fish, etc. Since thimerosal has ethylmercury and no studies were done on human tissue, am I correct in concluding that there is no valid scientific data to implicate the mercury in thimerosal to human disease whether inhaled, ingested, or injected? I have not read the articles, but it would be prima facie reason to question, but not to conclude. -- This address is for information only.

That's obvious from what she said, because if there was even one paper which "explain[ed] exactly what mercury does to mitochondria" there would be no need for the other 298. Mitrochondria from different species are similar, but not alike. There are different ways of exposure to mercury or mercury compounds. And studies have to be replicated in case of error. All this being said, it may well be unclear as to EXACTLY what happens. -- This address is for information only.
