Paving the Way to Elucidate Hg's Role in Tumorigenesis (Adv. Sci. 30/2026)

Hg's Role in Tumorigenesis This cover illustrates the labyrinthine complexity of the relationship between mercury (Hg) exposure and tumorigenesis. External and internal pathways converge within the human body, yet interpretation is challenged by confounding effects, limited human data, and dynamic in vivo Hg transformations. Integrating mechanistic insights with comprehensive databases may pave the way to elucidate Hg's role in tumorigenesis. For more details can be found in the Perspective by Wenli Tang, Huan Zhong, and co-workers (DOI: 10.1002/advs.202514828).
