NINDS: Neurotoxicity occurs when the exposure to natural or manmade toxic substances (neurotoxicants) alters the normal activity
of the nervous system. This can eventually disrupt or even kill neurons, key cells that transmit and process signals in the
brain and other parts of the nervous system. Neurotoxicity can result from exposure to substances used in chemotherapy, radiation
treatment, drug therapies, and organ transplants, as well as exposure to heavy metals such as lead and mercury, certain foods
and food additives, pesticides, industrial and/or cleaning solvents, cosmetics, and some naturally occurring substances. Symptoms
may appear immediately after exposure or be delayed. They may include limb weakness or numbness; loss of memory, vision, and/or
intellect; headache; cognitive and behavioral problems; and sexual dysfunction. Individuals with certain disorders may be
especially vulnerable to neurotoxicants.31
MalaCards: Toxic Encephalopathy, also known as neurotoxicity, is related to wernicke encephalopathy and aicardi-goutieres syndrome. An important gene associated with Toxic Encephalopathy is SYCN (syncollin), and among its related pathways are Apoptosis and survival Anti-apoptotic action of membrane-bound ESR1 and Glutathione metabolism. The compounds pge2 and n acetylcysteine have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include brain, and related mouse phenotypes are endocrine/exocrine gland and respiratory system.
