Possible target organs and biomarkers affected by formaldehyde exposure. FA exposure with or without OVA affects respiratory, immune, and central nervous systems by modulating the cytokines (IL-1β, CCL2), neuropeptides (NGF, substance P), hormones (CRH, ACTH, and corticosterone), and enzymes (TH) and intracellular calcium-binding protein in the mouse model (green: FA, red: FA + OVA).
