Drinking water exposure to cadmium, an environmental contaminant, results in the exacerbation of autoimmune disease in the murine model.

Toxicology - 30 Jun 2003

Leffel Elizabeth K, Wolf Carl, Poklis Alphonse, White Kimber L

Abstract excerpt

Cadmium is a pervasive environmental contaminant. The primary route of exposure to the general population occurs via contaminated drinking water or food supplies. Our hypothesis was that cadmium could be a trigger for inducing autoimmune disease (AD) in genetically predisposed populations. Therefore, New Zealand Black/White F1 (NZBW) mice were exposed to cadmium via drinking water. Mice were exposed to: 0, 3, 30,...
