Evidence for stimulatory and inhibitory effects of cadmium on the [3H] thymidine incorporation into various organs of the mouse

Serum Cadmium Levels in Pancreatic Cancer Patients from the East Nile Delta Region of Egypt

“…Mice injected with 4 mg/kg CdCl 2 expressed a 2.5-fold increase in DNA synthesis in the pancreas, which Andrews et al (1990) and Hellman (1986) interpreted as a sign of increased metallothionein synthesis. Rats injected with 4 and 8 mg/kg cadmium demonstrated 9.8- and 17.9-fold increases, respectively, in pancreatic metallothionein levels (Wormser and Calp 1988).…”
