Cadmium Increases Human Fetal Germ Cell Apoptosis

14 Oct 2009

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Cadmium (Cd) is a common environmental pollutant and a major constituent of tobacco smoke. Adverse effects of this heavy metal on reproductive function have been identified in adults; however, no studies have examined its effects on human reproductive organs during development. OBJECTIVES: Using our previously developed organ culture system, we investigated the effects of cadmium chloride on human...
