Therefore, this study evaluated the effects of MeHg exposure on the physico-chemical, ultrastructural and functional properties of mature tooth enamel. Specifically, we studied offspring of mothers exposed to MeHg during the prenatal and postnatal periods which are the developmental stages associated with tooth enamel formation. Female rats were exposed to MeHg at a dose of 40 μg/kg/day for 42 days of pregnancy and lactation. The enamel of offspring was analyzed by (1) Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy and Raman to assess physicochemical composition, (2) Scanning Electron Microscopy for ultrastructural evaluation, (3) Transmitted Polarizing Light Microscopy for analysis of the enamel extracellular matrix, and (4) resistance and hardness were evaluated by microhardness. The results showed that MeHg exposure during this sensitive enamel formation period induced changes in inorganic and organic content and enamel prisms ultrastructure alterations and disturbed the organic extracellular matrix due to a decreased enamel strength. These novel findings establish for the first time that maternal exposure to MeHg pre and postnatal promoted relevant changes in mature enamel of their offspring rats.LIBPhys-UNLRUNChemelo, Victória SantosBittencourt, Leonardo OliveiraNascimento , Priscila CunhaPaiva, Mayra FrassonDelbem, Alberto Carlos BotazzoPessan, Juliano Pelimdo Espírito Santo, Alexandre RibeiroAlbuquerque, Alan Rodrigo LealAngélica, Rômulo SimõesCrespo-Lopez, Maria ElenaPessanha, SofiaAschner, MichaelLima, Rafael Rodrigues2024-03-07T23:59:04Z2023-06-302023-06-30T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/article12application/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10362/164619eng2296-2565PURE: 84310451https://doi.org/10.3389/fpubh.2023.1183308info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-03-11T05:53:28Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/164619Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T04:00:17.074219Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
