“…On the other hand, paraquat (B) is highly toxic in humans. It is rapidly absorbed and it bioaccumulates in lipid compartments ( Figure 2 ) [ 61 ]. Thus, it may have an affinity for the lamina propria, thereby altering its structural integrity as well as the host immune response.…”

“…In the search for databases, we found 5 cases of subjects exposed to paraquat by accident ( Table 3 ). In all cases, it was reported that paraquat increased the release of ROS due to mitochondrial damage, which induced oxidation of lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids, in addition to increase inflammatory responses, and in some cases, apoptosis, which led to the development of ulcers of the oral mucosa and bleeding [ 61 , 62 , 63 , 64 , 65 ]. The increases in oxidative stress and inflammation are responses that were also observed in a murine model exposed to paraquat, and they are very similar to those seen in the pathology of periodontitis with loss of the alveolar bone [ 52 ].…”

“…However, PQ is highly toxic to humans, and it is a common poison in suicide and accidental poisoning [ 2 ]. In the early stage, PQ poisoning can cause acute lung injury or acute respiratory distress syndrome, and most patients die of multi-organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) or respiratory failure, whose pathogenesis is still unclear [ 3 , 4 ]. At present, there is no specific detoxification drug for paraquat poisoning, and the clinical treatment is still under exploration.…”
