Although the liver is a cadmium-target organ, hepatocyte response involved in its toxicity is not yet elucidated. A link between this heavy metal treatment and Stat3 signaling pathways was examined in primary mouse hepatocytes. We provided evidence of a novel link among NADPH oxidase and Stat3 signaling, mediated by Src, EGFR, and Erk1/2. Cadmium activates NADPH oxidase. ROS produced by this oxidase...
Toxic metals appear to use the transport pathways that exist for biologically essential metals. Calcium uptake in cells occurs through specific membrane channels. Since cadmium inhibits calcium uptake, this study was carried on to elucidate the mechanism of Cd interference with calcium transport using the fetal hepatic cell line WRL-68 as an in vitro model. Ca accumulation by WRL-68 cells presented...
