The mechanistic basis of arsenicosis: Pathogenesis of skin cancer

Highlights • About 200 million people worldwide are at risk of toxic arsenic exposure. • Skin lesions indicate progression of other diseases. • Mitochondria-dependent oxidative and nitrosative stress contribute to pathogenesis. • Immune dysfunctions are mediated by unfolded protein response signalin...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • About 200 million people worldwide are at risk of toxic arsenic exposure. • Skin lesions indicate progression of other diseases. • Mitochondria-dependent oxidative and nitrosative stress contribute to pathogenesis. • Immune dysfunctions are mediated by unfolded protein response signaling. • Arsenic alters genomic stability and disrupts various signal transduction pathways.
