Promotion of cadmium uptake and cadmium-induced toxicity by the copper transporter CTR1 in HepG2 and ZFL cells

Cadmium (Cd(2+)) is considered a human carcinogen as it causes oxidative stress and alters DNA repair responses. However, how Cd(2+) is taken up by cells remains unclear. We hypothesized that Cd(2+) could be transported into cells via a membrane copper (Cu) transporter, CTR1. CTR1 expression was not...
