“…Many amphibian populations are declining in size worldwide. This phenomenon is in many cases associated with the contamination of anthropized areas due, for example, to an excessive outflow amount of pesticides and heavy metals into nature (Davidson et al 2001;Beebee and Griffiths 2005;Zocche et al 2013). Since amphibian skins are highly absorptive, contaminants have the potential to permeate the epidermis easily, leading to reproductive failure and subsequently decreasing the diversity of these organisms (Nyström et al 2007).…”

“…Several studies have confirmed the genotoxic potential of heavy metals, reporting a significant increase in the frequencies of micronuclei, sister chromatid exchanges, chromosomal aberrations, DNA disturbances and cutdowns of mitotic indexes in different cell types and model systems [8,21,36]. The cytogenetic abnormalities and DNA damage induced by gold mining activities indicate that consumption of As-contaminated water could increase the risk of adverse health consequences.…”

“…Several heavy metals can stimulate production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), thereby causing lipid peroxidation, DNA damage, and oxidative damage (Stohs and Bagchi 1995, Henkler et al 2010, Zocche et al 2013, 2014 and alterations in Ca homeostasis (Stohs and Bagchi 1995). Heavy metals initiate and enhance the neoplastic process by liberation of ROS and by causing DNA mutations (Peeters 1987, Feig et al 1994.…”
