Cadmium (Cd) exposure in mice induces transcription of metallothionein (MT) mRNA and protein accumulation in both liver and kidney. Resistance to hepatotoxicity through chronic exposure to heavy metals is the result of this induction. However, the same chronic exposure results in damage to kidney. W
KY 405364236. USA Cigarette smoking constitutes a major source of cadmium exposure via inhalation in man. To determine how smoke exposure affects the organ distribution and accumulation of cadmium, male C57B1 mice and Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed daily for 52-60 consecutive weeks to mainstream s
