ABSTRACT
Cadmium is one of the toxic heavy metals prevalent in the environment.Long-term,even the lowest dose,exposures to this element can damage various organs including the kidney,liver,lung,skeleton,and might elevate the risk of cancer and deformity.The kidney,skeleton and lung are the tissues most affected by chronic cadmium toxicity.The early sign of renal dysfunction,as a main target for chronic cadmium exposure,is tubular dysfunction,and renal failure can be observed in the terminal stage.In recent years,studies about the burden of cadmium in childhood and health damage are gradually increased.Urinary β2-microglobulin,e1-microglobulin and N-acetyl 3-D-glucosamidase have been employed as markers monitoring for the early phase of cadmium exposure and nephrotoxicity.A biomarker named kidney injury molecule-1 aslo has been used for predicting cadmium-induced tubular impairment.It is reported that kidney injury molecule-1 may be more sensitive than traditional biomarkers.
