Mechanism of cytotoxicity of paraquat [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental Health and Preventive Medicine, 2002
Acute paraquat poisoning seems to be very complex because many possible mechanisms of paraquat cytotoxicity have been reported. Some may not be the cause of paraquat poisoning but the result or an accompanying phenomenon of paraquat action. The mechanism critical for cell damage is still unknown.
