ABSTRACT
Acrylamide (ACR) is a chemical compound, that forms in starchy food products during cooking at high-temperatures, including frying, baking, and roasting. ACR is a known lethal neurotoxin. The presented review suggests that the mechanism of ACR's neurotoxicity may be related to an impaired cholinergic transmission in the central and peripheral nervous system and redox imbalance. These may not only affect ongoing brain functions but also participate in etiology of neurodegeneration.
