Increased Endocytosis of Cadmium-Metallothionein through the 24p3 Receptor in an In Vivo Model with Reduced Proximal Tubular Activity
Background: The proximal tubule (PT) is the major target of cadmium (Cd(2+)) nephrotoxicity. Current dogma postulates that Cd(2+) complexed to metallothionein (MT) (CdMT) is taken up through receptor-mediated endocytosis (RME) via the PT receptor megalin:cubilin, which is the predominant pathway for...
