ABSTRACT
Arsenic supposed to be dangerous heavy metal present widely in nature; It has the properties to replaces other ions present in human body after its successful absorption from small intestine. Excessive amount may lead to development of oxidative stress; Arsenic induced ROS production and depressed anti-oxidant defense system is the main cause of development of oxidative stress. Elevated MLCK and increased calcium sensitization results in cardiac dysfunctions. While impaired glucose metabolism and increased level of JNK, SPAS and NFkB cause insulin inactivation, resistance and subsequent Diabetes mellitus Type II.
