Cellular and molecular toxicity of lead in bone.
To fully understand the significance of bone as a target tissue of lead toxicity, as well as a reservoir of systemic lead, it is necessary to define the effects of lead on the cellular components of bone. Skeletal development and the regulation of skeletal mass are ultimately determined by the four different types of cells: osteoblasts, lining cells, osteoclasts, and osteocytes. These cells, wh...
متن کاملmolecular and physiological characterizations of floral scent production in rosa damascena mill.
گل محمدی (r. damascena mill.)مهمترین گونه ای است که در تولید گلاب، عطر و اسانس، در صنعت عطرسازی و دارویی کاربرد دارد. با وجود اهمیت عطر گل محمدی، پژوهش های مولکولی و بیوشیمیایی عطر گل این گونه هنوز در مراحل ابتدایی است. در این پژوهش، ویژگی های مولکولی و فیزیولوژیکی تولید عطر در گل محمدی در آزمایش های مختلف مورد بررسی قرار گرفتند. در آزمایش اول، پژوهشی به منظور بررسی تنوع شیمیایی اسانس میان 44 ت...
Cellular defense mechanisms against lead toxicity in the vascular system.
Lead is a toxic heavy metal that can cause a range of health problems. In this context, the vascular system is a particular target of the deleterious effects of lead. Lead exerts its toxicity through substitution of other divalent cations such as calcium and zinc, resulting in disruption of homeostasis. Based on the evidence that lead up-regulates endoplasmic reticulum (ER) chaperone glucose-re...
متن کاملMolecular, genetic and epigenetic pathways of peroxynitrite-induced cellular toxicity
Oxidative stress plays a key role in the pathogenesis of cancer and many metabolic diseases; therefore, an effective antioxidant therapy would be of great importance in these circumstances. Nevertheless, convincing randomized clinical trials revealed that antioxidant supplementations were not associated with significant reduction in incidence of cancer, chronic diseases and all-cause mortality....
متن کاملLEAD TOXICITY IN EMPLOYEES OF A PAINT FACTORY
Lead-based paint is an important cause of lead poisoning. This report describes our observation of excessive lead absorption among employees in a paint factory in which lead naphthenate and lead oxalate were used as drying agents in paint. In this study, blood levels of lead were compared between nineteen paint factory employees and twenty normal controls. The nineteen paint factory employ...
