... Because cadmium is the most common ingredient in zinc coatings and because of the well-known toxicity of soluble cadmium, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) needed to determine the spacecraft water exposure guidelines (SWEGs)
From page 157...
... They reported a final retention of 6% of administered cadmium in the monkeys. The results of several studies on absorption of cadmium from single oral bolus studies show that monkeys and humans seem to absorb
From page 158...
... . However, in rats administered cadmium at 100 μg/kg, the fractional absorption of cadmium was 10-fold greater (1.1% of the dosage)
From page 159...
... After a single oral administration of 115Cd to albino rats 1-26 wk old, the whole-body cadmium retention (measured 1 or 2 wk after dosing) was higher in sucklings than in weaned rats, and retention of cadmium in the kidneys was 5-7 times higher in the sucklings than in older rats (Kostial 1984)
From page 160...
... Correspondingly, the uptake of calcium decreases when the ingestion of cadmium is high. Female rats on low-calcium diets exposed to cadmium as CdCl2 at 25 mg/L in drinking water for 1 or 2 mo had accumulated about 50% more cadmium than the rats on a highcalcium diet (Larsson and Piscator 1971)

... cadmium than it did in rats fed adequate zinc and marginal iron. Cadmium concentration in the duodenum was also 10-fold higher in rats fed diets marginally deficient in zinc and iron compared with rats fed diets containing adequate amounts of these minerals.
From page 163...
... The cadmium-protein complexes are taken up by the liver. After 2-3 d, when plasma cadmium concentrations are low, plasma cadmium is also bound to a low-molecular-weight protein, MT (Norberg et al.

... (1999) , from the same research group, reported the tissue distribution of cadmium in female rats given minimum amounts of cadmium-polluted rice or CdCl2 for 8 mo, indicated the absence of any hepatic or renal lesions at the end of the experiment regimen even at 40 ppm.
From page 166...
... In this study the authors also documented that the lack of MT rendered the MTnull mice vulnerable to severe renal toxicity, even though the cadmium concentrations in the kidney of MT-null mice were much lower than in wild-type mice. MT protects against cadmium-induced liver injury as it increased MT binds cadmium in the cytosol, reducing cadmium content in the organelles.
From page 167...
... The normal rate of urinary cadmium excretion in humans is about 1 μg/d, and urinary cadmium concentration increases with age. In individuals exposed to cadmium, urinary cadmium excretion and concentration are signs of renal dysfunction.
From page 168...
... . Predicted kidney cadmium concentrations of females were higher than those of males: 5.1 mg (3.37.6 mg)
From page 169...

... Several measurements were made that included mortality; organ and body weight and changes in their relative ratios; several clinical chemistry parameters such as serum enzymes, glucose, proteins, BUN, electrolytes, and hematologic parameters; and urinary parameters such as ketones, glucose, and protein. Gross pathologic examinations were also performed at necropsy (Borzelleca et al.
From page 173...
... Three of 10 male rats died within 1 d in the two highest-dose groups, whereas among females, only 2/10 died at the highest dose. One day after the dose was given, the lung-to-body weight ratio in the highest-dose group was significantly higher only in males.
From page 174...
... In a rat study, a significant decrease in hemoglobin and a 50% decrease in water intake within 2 wk were reported after young male and female rats were exposed to cadmium at 50 ppm in drinking water (Decker et al.
From page 175...
... with 8-10 nucleated red blood cells per 100 white blood cells. The authors reported that in groups treated with cadmium at 0.1-10.0 ppm in water for 1 y, changes in body weight gain and water and food intake were not different from those of controls, nor were any other pathologic changes noted.
From page 176...
... In the young rats, the strength was negatively correlated with bone cadmium content but not correlated with kidney cadmium content. This may be because young rats absorb more cadmium than adult and older rats.
From page 177...
... A study of adult male rats exposed to cadmium in the diet (100 ppm/kg diet or cadmium at 9 mg/kg body weight) for 60 d and then tested in a Digiscan activity monitor indicated that cadmium decreased movement and increased rest time (Nation et al.
From page 178...
... were fed a diet containing cadmium as cadmium acetate at 150 ppm for 16 wk. Body weight, blood pressure, and plasma renin were measured at week 2, 4, 8, and 12, and terminally at week 16.
From page 179...
... Controls for this study were 133 males and 161 females without exposure to cadmium. -2m in urine was used as an index of the effect of cadmium on health, and the average cadmium concentration in locally produced rice was used as an indicator of cadmium exposure.
From page 180...
... to male Wistar rats fed a diet sufficient or deficient in calcium and studied the renal and skeleton lesions by histology and biochemical measurements 120 d after exposure to cadmium. According to the authors, the daily mean cadmium intake was 0.9 mg/d.
From page 181...
... (1978) conducted a study in female Wistar rats (170-190 g)
From page 182...
... However, they reported focal necrosis of the liver in five out of eight nonpregnant female rats and slight atrophy of glomeruli in two of eight of these female rats (Sutou et al.
From page 183...
... Male Wistar rats were fed diets containing cadmium as CdCl2 at 0.3, 3, 30, or 90 mg/kg for 10 mo (Groten et al.
From page 184...
... (1987) conducted a study to evaluate the chronic effects of single versus multiple oral cadmium administrations on the testes of mature male Wistar rats.
From page 185...
... In this study, the author did not look at any parameters except food consumption, body weight changes, and extensive histopathology. Except for a significantly decreased growth rate in the 50 ppm dose group, the author did not find any cadmium doserelated change in benign or malignant neoplasia.
From page 186...
... In rats of groups dosed with cadmium at 2-10 mg, a reduction in bone mineral density was seen after the onset of renal toxicity. Significant increases in Pyr and Dpyr -- the bone resorption markers -- were also observed in high-dose groups during the early part of the treatment regimen (Ohta et al.
From page 187...
... Some of the studies have been described here. A few studies have measured changes in parameters of immunotoxicity because of cadmium exposure (mostly by inhalation)
From page 188...
... (1986) reported that the incidence of viral-induced mortality was lower in male Swiss Webster mice exposed to cadmium sulfate, acetate, or chloride in the drinking water at 3, 30, or 300 mg/L for 10 wk followed by an inoculation of encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV)
From page 189...
... Injection of sRBCs 3 wk after experiment cessation revealed no effect on the PFC response. Results demonstrate that effects on humoral immunity observed immediately following cadmium exposure were no longer visible 3 wk following the cessation of exposure.
From page 190...
... orally treated with cadmium vary from decreases, increases, and no changes reported. Cell-Mediated Immunity Several studies have measured cell-mediated immunity to cadmium exposure by determining splenic B and T lymphocyte blastogenesis in response to mitogens.
From page 191...
... that oral cadmium exposure does not produce immunosuppression. Given that only one cadmium dose was examined and that lymphocyte proliferation was the only end point examined, more studies are needed to support the author's conclusion.
From page 192...
... response to sRBC and splenic T-cell proliferative response to BSA were observed in albino Swiss mice exposed to CdCl2 at 100 or 300 ppm in drinking water for 35 d but not in the 30 ppm group (Dan et al.
From page 193...
... (2003) observed that in adult male rats exposed for 1 mo to CdCl2 at 0, 5, 10, 25, 50, and 100 ppm in drinking water, the Blymphocytes increased with doses of CdCl2 at 5 and 10 ppm in both spleen and thymus, although they decreased at doses greater than 25 ppm.
From page 194...
... (1990) examined cultured peripheral lymphocytes from 21 men and 19 women in China who had been environmentally exposed to cadmium (as judged by urinary cadmium and soil cadmium concentrations)
From page 195...
... Cadmium concentrations as CdCl2 ranging from 0.3 to 5.6 μg Cd/L (Paton and Allison 1972) or cadmium at 0.6 and 6 mg/L (Deknudt and Deminatti 1978)
From page 196...
... came to the following conclusions based on their evaluation of existing data several years ago and has not updated this information: In a study of 292 cadmium production workers who had a mini mum of 2 years of employment between 1940 and 1969, a statisti cally significant excess of deaths from all malignancies and from lung cancer was observed in the entire cohort. In addition, a statisti cally significant excess of deaths from prostate cancer was detected among workers who lived for at least 20 years after the date of first working in a cadmium production facility.
From page 197...
... (1998) concluded that there was no exposure relation between cumulative cadmium exposure and risk of lung cancer.
From page 198...
... The authors concluded that, considering the results of the most recent updates, for lung cancer, the relative risk is lower than suggested earlier in the absence of nickel and arsenic and the association between cadmium exposure and prostate cancer was not confirmed. Furthermore, there is no increased risk of cancer for populations environmentally exposed to cadmium (Verougstraete et al.
From page 199...
... did not find any change in the incidence of benign or malignant neoplasia in groups of 50 male and 50 female Wistar rats fed CdCl2 in their diet at 1, 3, 10, or 50 ppm for 2 y. A few additional animal studies designed to evaluate noncancer effects of chronic-duration oral cadmium exposure have indicated no dose-related increases in tumors (Fingerle et al.
From page 200...
... The authors reported that cadmium did not affect water consumption. Taking body weight into consideration, the doses of cadmium can be calculated as 0, 0.37, 0.75, 1.5, and 3.5 mg/kg/d.
From page 201...
... did not find any adverse effect on testicular function, as assessed by the number of pregnancies and number of fetuses per pregnant rat when untreated female rats were mated with male Sprague-Dawley rats that received cadmium at 0, 10, 30, or 100 mg/L via drinking water for 24 wk. In rats exposed to cadmium at 0.001, 0.01, or 0.1 mg/L in drinking water for 30 d, Dixon et al.
From page 202...
... exposed pregnant female rats to cadmium at 60 and 180 ppm (9 and 29 mg/kg/d, respectively) in their drinking water from day 1 to 20 of gestation.
From page 203...
... . Cadmium and Effects on Bone Numerous epidemiologic and experimental studies have been conducted on the effects of cadmium exposure on bone, particularly reduction in bone mineral density.
From page 204...
... . Rats administered cadmium for 60 wk by oral gavage had less bone mineral density in the femur and greater excretion of bone-specific markers in the urine than before they were exposed to cadmium (Ohta et al.
From page 205...
... (2000) evaluated whether long-term low-level cadmium exposure, through environment or occupation, increased the risk of osteoporosis (decreased forearm bone mineral density)
From page 206...
... in young female Wistar rats exposed to cadmium at 1, 5, 50, or 100 mg/L in drinking water for 12 mo and determined the above-mentioned parameters at 3, 6, 9, and 12 mo. It was reported that a dose- and time-dependent decrease was observed in bone mineral content (BMC)
From page 207...
... . As described earlier, cadmium exposure has been reported in several investigations to affect bone mineral density.
From page 208...
... The study is described in detail elsewhere in this document. The important conclusion from the study is that a decrease in bone mineral density can be observed both before and after the manifestation of renal dysfunction or damage, but the amount of decrease depends on the dose and duration of exposure to cadmium.
From page 209...
... However, when kidney tubular damage was seen as early as 10 wk in the 5 mg/kg dose group, no change in bone mineral density or in the excretion of bone markers in the urine was seen, even at 60 wk. It is unrealistic to expect high cadmium concentrations in ISS water, and, at the cadmium concentrations that will be established as ACs for 1,000 d (or more)
