Role of oxidative stress in cadmium toxicity and carcinogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesToxicology and Applied Pharmacology, 2009
Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic metal, targeting the lung, liver, kidney, and testes following acute intoxication, and causing nephrotoxicity, immunotoxicity, osteotoxicity and tumors after prolonged exposures. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are often implicated in Cd toxicology.

Phytotoxicity and Accumulation of Copper-Based Nanoparticles in Brassica under Cadmium Stress

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2022
The widespread use of copper-based nanoparticles expands the possibility that they enter the soil combined with heavy metals, having a toxic effect and posing a threat to the safety of vegetables.

Influence of salicylic acid on phytochelatin synthesis in Zea mays during Cd stress [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
: Presoaking maize (Zea mays) seeds in salicylic acid (SA) reduces damage caused by cadmium. In the present work the possible role of phytochelatins (PCs) in SA-mediated protection against Cd toxicity was investigated. Seeds were presoaked in 0.5 mM SA,

Synergistic effects of gamma-aminobutyric acid and melatonin on seed germination and cadmium tolerance in tomato

open access: yesPlant Signaling & Behavior, 2023
The effects of exogenous γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and melatonin (MT) on tomato seed germination and shoot growth exposed to cadmium stress were investigated.

E2Fs co-participate in cadmium stress response through activation of MSHs during the cell cycle

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Cadmium is one of the most common heavy metal contaminants found in agricultural fields. MutSα, MutSβ, and MutSγ are three different MutS-associated protein heterodimer complexes consisting of MSH2/MSH6, MSH2/MSH3, and MSH2/MSH7, respectively.

Cadmium in the mammary gland and neonatal intestine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Cadmium is a ubiquitous toxic metal known to cause several adverse health effects in humans. Newborns have an increased gastrointestinal absorption of cadmium compared to adults and seem to be more sensitive to cadmium toxicity.

Effect of cadmium stress on seed germination, plant growth and hydrolyzing enzymes activities in mungbean seedlings

open access: yesJournal of Seed Science, 2021
: Both protein and starch hydrolysis contribute to the effective mobilization of seed reserves to trigger seed germination. We studied the activities of hydrolytic enzymes in germinating seeds of mung bean (Vigna radiata) exposed to cadmium stress at 0 ...

Consequences of subacute intratracheal exposure of rats to cadmium oxide nanoparticles: Electrophysiological and toxicological effects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Cadmium is a metal used in various industrial applications, whereby exposure to Cd-containing fumes is likely. The submicron sized particles in the fumes represent an extra risk due to their high mobility within the organism and high surface area ...

Improving Endogenous Nitric Oxide Enhances Cadmium Tolerance in Rice through Modulation of Cadmium Accumulation and Antioxidant Capacity

open access: yesAgronomy, 2023
Nitric oxide (NO) plays an important role in plant stress responses. However, the mechanisms underlying NO-induced stress resistance to cadmium (Cd) stress in rice remain elusive.
