Cadmium accumulation and detoxification by alveolar macrophages of cigarette smokers.
STUDY OBJECTIVES Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic metal associated with emphysema and lung cancer, which is present in both air pollution and cigarette smoke. Metallothionein (MT) is an inducible protein that binds and detoxifies cellular Cd. The goals of this study were to determine whether increased concentrations of Cd are present in alveolar macrophages (AMs) of cigarette smokers (CSMs) and to deter...
متن کاملRole of mineral nutrition in minimizing cadmium accumulation by plants.
Cadmium (Cd) is a highly toxic heavy metal for both plants and animals. The presence of Cd in agricultural soils is of great concern regarding its entry into the food chain. Cadmium enters into the soil-plant environment mainly through anthropogenic activities. Compounds of Cd are more soluble than other heavy metals, so it is more available and readily taken up by plants and accumulates in dif...
متن کاملCadmium, Nickel and Vanadium Accumulation by Three Strains of Marine Bacteria
Three marine bacteria, Pseudomonas putida PTCC 1664, Bacillus cereus PTTC 1665 and Pseudomonas pseudoalkaligenes PTCC 1666 isolated from the East Anzali wetland sediments of the Caspian Sea, were resistant to heavy metals of Cadmium (Cd), Nickel (Ni) and Vanadium (V). Pseudomonas pseudoalkaligenes PTCC 1666 was found to be resistant to all 3 metals Ni, Cd, V. Heavy metal uptake was determined ...
متن کاملCadmium accumulation in aortas of smokers.
Abdominal aortic aneurysm is a smoking-related disorder. Cadmium, inhaled from cigarettes, may accumulate in the aorta and facilitate weakening of the aorta through adverse effects on smooth muscle cell metabolism. Cadmium was measured by atomic absorption spectrometry in infrarenal aortas from 13 patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm and from 17 age- and sex-matched patients with normal-diam...
متن کاملGene limiting cadmium accumulation in rice.
Intake of toxic cadmium (Cd) from rice caused Itai-itai disease in the past and it is still a threat for human health. Therefore, control of the accumulation of Cd from soil is an important food-safety issue, but the molecular mechanism for the control is unknown. Herein, we report a gene (OsHMA3) responsible for low Cd accumulation in rice that was isolated from a mapping population derived fr...
