GLYPHOSATE HERBICIDE INDUCES INFLAMMATION IN EXPOSED ANIMALS: AN INTEGRATIVE REVIEW
Abstract
The proposed objective of this integrative review was to synthesize the studies in the face of scientific knowledge already produced and available in the literature on the inflammatory effects induced by glyphosate. A search was conducted in the BVS, PubMed and Portal Capes databases, between January 2011 and November 2021, with 234 studies found and 11 selected. Of these 11 studies 90.91% (10 articles) were published in the last 5 years and 63.63% (7 articles) of the animals used for the research were rats and, with 36.36% (4 articles) of the studies, having the liver as the most analyzed organ. The tissue, cellular and gene expression analyses of inflammatory processes and changes in cytokine levels indicate a harmful action of glyphosate exposure and its commercial compounds, requiring further investigation of the effect of glyphosate on animals, humans and the environment for more effective regulation and safer management.
