The oxidative stress: endoplasmic reticulum stress axis in cadmium toxicity

BioMetals, 2010
Cadmium preferentially accumulates in the kidney, the major target for cadmium-related toxicity. Several underlying mechanisms are postulated, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been considered as crucial mediators for tissue injuries. In addition to oxidative stress, we recently disclosed that endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress also plays a ...

Cadmium stress: an oxidative challenge

BioMetals, 2010
At the cellular level, cadmium (Cd) induces both damaging and repair processes in which the cellular redox status plays a crucial role. Being not redox-active, Cd is unable to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) directly, but Cd-induced oxidative stress is a common phenomenon observed in multiple studies.

Effects of exogenous melatonin on the growth and cadmium accumulation of lettuce under cadmium‐stress conditions

Environmental Progress & Sustainable Energy, 2022
Melatonin (MT) is a signaling molecule that is widely present in plants and can help them resist abiotic stresses. In this study, the effects of different concentrations of exogenous MT on the growth and development of lettuce (Lactuca sativa) under ...

The role of glutathione transferases in cadmium stress

Toxicology Letters, 2004
Using Saccharomyces cerevisiae as experimental model, we observed that cells mutated in the GTT1 or GTT2 genes showed twice as much cadmium absorption than the control strain. We proposed that the formation of the cadmium-glutathione complex is dependent on that transferase, since it was previously demonstrated that the cytoplasmic levels of this ...

Exogenous Hemin alleviates cadmium stress in maize by enhancing sucrose and nitrogen metabolism and regulating endogenous hormones

International journal of phytoremediation, 2022
Cadmium (Cd) stress restricts maize growth and productivity severely. We aimed to investigate the effects of Hemin on the metabolism of sucrose and nitrogen and endogenous hormones in maize under cadmium stress.

Cadmium is an inducer of oxidative stress in yeast

Mutation Research/Fundamental and Molecular Mechanisms of Mutagenesis, 1996
The heavy metal cadmium is a carcinogen in long-term rodent studies and is a suspect human carcinogen. Cadmium scores negative in the Ames Salmonella mutagenicity assay and in most other short-term genotoxicity assays, but induces deletions in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Oxidative stress-mediated neurotoxicity of cadmium

Toxicology Letters, 1996
Young albino rats were administered cadmium i.p. (0.4 mg/kg body weight) for a period of 30 days and membrane fluidity, intracellular calcium level, MDA level, phospholipids, (phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylserine and sphingomyelin) and reduced glutathione were studied in olfactory bulb, cerebellum and ...

Cadmium stress in plants: A critical review of the effects, mechanisms, and tolerance strategies

Critical reviews in environmental science and technology, 2020
Cadmium accumulation in crops and the possibility of Cd entering the food chain are serious concerns for public health. This review discusses the deleterious effects of Cd in plants and the tolerance and resistance mechanisms that evolved to help ...

Cadmium accumulation and growth response to cadmium stress of eighteen plant species

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2016
This study investigated the cadmium (Cd) accumulation and growth response to Cd stress of 18 plant species. After growth for 30 days in the sand containing 0, 2, or 10 mg Cd kg-1, seedlings were evaluated for growth parameters, specific root length, and Cd accumulation.

Cadmium detoxification induced by salt stress improves cadmium tolerance of multi-stress-tolerant Pichia kudriavzevii

Environmental Pollution, 2018
Heavy metal tolerance of microorganisms is the basis of heavy metal removal by growing cells. In this study, a cross-protection effect generated by salt stress significantly enhanced the cadmium tolerance of multi-stress-tolerant Pichia kudriavzevii. Comparative transcriptome analysis using RNA-Seq linked with physiological and biochemical observation ...
