Different proteomic profiles of cinnabar upon therapeutic and toxic exposure reveal distinctive biological manifestations

ConclusionOur results suggest that the pathways and potential targets identified in the mouse cerebral cortex exposed to therapeutic and toxic doses of cinnabar are different, which provides novel insights into the potential molecular mechanisms underlying the pharmacological and toxicological effects of cinnabar.Graphical abstract
