poisoning leads to the impairment of intracellular and intercellular communication pathways. Its effect on signal transduction leads to build up of free radicals that mediate cell death or injury. Mercury poisoning results from methylmercury. It has inhibitory effects that resemble those of lead and uniquely induces the release of free radicals in cells. Cadmium mainly poisons the cell by displacing essential nutrients such as calcium‚ zinc‚ iron and copper from biomolecules. The displaced metals
