The teratogenicity of methylmercury was examined in selenium-deficient and selenium-sufficient mice of the ICR strain. A single oral dose of 75 mumol/kg of methylmercuric chloride (MMC) on day 10, 11 or 12 of gestation caused similar incidences of a cleft palate in the selenium-deficient and selenium-sufficient mice. The treatment on day 11 led to the highest incidence of a cleft palate in both groups. These results suggest that a maternal selenium deficiency has no effect on the incidence or on the critical gestational period for an MMC-induced cleft palate.
在ICR品系缺硒和富硒小鼠中研究了甲基汞的致畸性。在妊娠第10、11或12天经口单次给予75 μmol/kg氯化甲基汞(MMC),缺硒和富硒小鼠发生腭裂的发生率相似。在第11天进行处理时,两组腭裂发生率均最高。这些结果表明,母体缺硒对MMC诱导腭裂的发生率或关键妊娠期没有影响。
