Cadmium Complexed with β2-Microglubulin, Albumin and Lipocalin-2 rather than Metallothionein Cause Megalin:Cubilin Dependent Toxicity of the Renal Proximal Tubule
Cadmium (Cd(2+)) in the environment is a significant health hazard. Chronic low Cd(2+) exposure mainly results from food and tobacco smoking and causes kidney damage, predominantly in the proximal tubule. Blood Cd(2+) binds to thiol-containing high (e.g., albumin, transferrin) and low molecular weig...
