“…In a rural setting, vanadium in ambient air can vary between 25 and 75 ng/m 3 , whereas in an urban environment, this value is 60-300 ng/m 3 and can increase 6-fold in the winter (7). Although this metal is an essential trace element for humans and certain animals, it occurs sparsely in nature (8). Certain plants can have higher levels of vanadium (e.g., sugar beets, vines, beech and oak trees), but the greatest concentrations are found in lower marine animals (e.g., shellfish) (8).…”

“…Because oil is derived from fossilized marine organisms, vanadium is found in this fuel at a high average concentration and, subsequently, in its fly ash ( Figure 1A,B). Higher contents of the metal occur in the heavy oils left (i.e., the residual) after the more volatile fractions such as petrol, paraffin, and diesel oil have been distilled, hence the term "residual oil" fly ash (ROFA) (8). In addition to metals, sulfates are in abundance ( Figure 1A,C).…”

Epidemiologic studies have demonstrated increased human morbidity and mortality with elevations in the concentration of ambient air particulate matter (PM). Fugitive fly ash from the combustion of oil and residual fuel oil significantly contributes to the ambient air particle burden. Residual oil fly ash (ROFA) is remarkable in the capacity to provoke injury in experimental systems. The unique composition of this emission source particle makes it particularly useful as a surrogate for ambient air PM in studies of biologic effects testing the hypothesis that metals mediate the biologic effects of air pollution particles. A majority of the in vitro and animal model investigations support the postulate that transition metals present in ROFA (especially vanadium) participate in Fenton-like chemical reactions to produce reactive oxygen species. This is associated with tyrosine phosphorylation, nuclear factor kappa B and other transcription factor activation, induction of inflammatory mediator expression, and inflammatory lung injury. It is also evident that vanadium accounts for a significant portion of the biologic activity of ROFA. The extrapolation of this body of investigation on ROFA to the field of ambient air PM is difficult, as particles in numerous environments have such small amounts of vanadium.

“…Согласно исследованиям последних лет, ряд неорганических соединений, например, соли ванадия [8], молибдена [9], хрома [10], цинка [11] обладают выраженным инсулиномиметическим действием [12][13][14][15]. На данный момент соединения ванадия, которым посвящен обзор, рассматриваются как потенциальные средства, которые позволят уменьшить инсулинорезистентность, не повышая дозу инсулина при СД 1 типа, увеличить чувствительность тканей к инсулину и усилить его эффекты при СД 2 типа.…”

The review considers the biological role of vanadium, its participation in various processes in humans and other mammals, and the anti-diabetic effect of its compounds. Vanadium salts have persistent hypoglycemic and antihyperlipidemic effects and reduce the probability of secondary complications in animals with experimental diabetes. The review contains a detailed description of all major synthesized vanadium complexes having antidiabetic activity. Currently, vanadium complexes with organic ligands are more effective and safer than the inorganic salts. Despite the proven efficacy of these compounds as the anti-diabetic agents in animal models, only one organic complex of vanadium is currently under the second phase of clinical trials. All of the considered data suggest that vanadium compound are a new promising class of drugs in modern pharmacotherapy of diabetes.
