Oxidative Stress in Lead and Cadmium Toxicity and Its Amelioration
Oxidative stress has been implicated to play a role, at least in part, in pathogenesis of many disease conditions and toxicities in animals. Overproduction of reactive oxygen species and free radicals beyond the cells intrinsic capacity to neutralize following xenobiotics exposure leads to a state of oxidative stress and resultant damages of lipids, protein, and DNA. Lead and cadmium are the co...
متن کاملCadmium-Induced Nephrotoxicity via Oxidative Stress in Male Wistar Rats and Capsaicin Protects Its Toxicity
Cadmium (Cd) is one of the most toxic heavy metals used in various industries from where it leaks into the environment. It accumulates in the body, especially in the kidneys and damages the renal tubules which cause critical effects on health. Capsaicin, the active component of chili pepper which is the part of the diet, has anti-proliferative, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. CdCl...
متن کاملOxidative stress, biochemical alterations, and hyperlipidemia in female rats induced by lead chronic toxicity during puberty and post puberty periods
Objective(s):Lead (Pb) is a toxic metal inducing many destructive effects leading to a broad range of physiological, biochemical, and neurological dysfunctions in humans and laboratory animals. Materials and Methods: Here, we investigated the effect of chronic exposure to Pb (50 mg/l) on oxidative stress, hepatotoxicity, nephrotoxicity, and lipid profile of two different age groups of female r...
متن کاملInduction of Oxidative Stress and Osmolyte Accumulation In Response to Sodium Arsenate Toxicity in Mungbean Seedlings and Its Amelioration
Effect of sodium arsenate (Na2HAsO4.7H2O) on the growth and activity of few oxidizing enzymes of mungbean seedlings was investigated and it was found to have drastic effects on the growth and biochemical metabolism of germinating mungbean (Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek cv. B-105) seedlings. With the increase in concentration of sodium arsenate (5μM, 10μM and 20μM) significant decrease in seedling ...
متن کاملLead and cadmium accumulation potential and toxicity threshold determined for land cress and spinach
Soil contamination with potentially toxic elements (PTEs) in agricultural lands, in part, is responsible for limiting the crop productivity and the food chain contamination. The objective of this study were to asses the limiting of crop productivity by cadmium (Cd) and lead (Pb), the potential transfer and bioaccumulation of these PTEs in plants, and ultimately the food chain contamination to e...
