Effect of cadmium on porphyrin biosynthesis-I

1. 1. Female Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed to Cd (50 ppm) administered in drinking water. 2. 2. The oral uptake of Cd did not alter δ-aminolevulinate and porphobilinogen urinary excretion nor the total content of daily porphyrin excretion in either urine or feces. 3. 3. A significant and consiste...

After 94 days exposure, Cd levels in blood and urine were low, and very high in kidney and liver. In red cells the activity of ALA-D was 40% reduced, and only a 20% decrease was observed for PBGase and deaminase. In kidney and liver ALA-D, PBGase and deaminase activities were the same in both control and Cd-intoxicated rats. 5. 5. It is suggested that determination of the ratio protoporphyrin:coproporphyrin in feces and ALA-D activity in red cells might be a biological index of Cd intoxication. © 1980.
