Abstract Lead is a pervasive environmental contaminant with significant health risks, particularly to children. It is known for its neurotoxic and immunotoxic effects, causing developmental, cognitive, and behavioral impairments. Despite extensive research, the mechanisms of lead toxicity remain unclear. Cytokines, which are critical in immune response and inflammation, have emerged as potential biomarkers for lead toxicity. The recent Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) update to the blood lead reference value (BLRV) to 3.5 µg/dL emphasizes the need to explore novel biomarkers and mechanisms. The study involved 100 healthy children aged 1 to 5 years, divided into two groups based on BLRV: elevated (≥ 3.5 µg/dL) and low ( |
