In Vitro Magnetometry, LDH Activity and Apoptosisas Indices of Cytotoxicity in Alveolar Macrophages Exposed to Cadmium Chloride

카드뮴에 폭로된 폐포된 폐포대식세포의 세포독성 평가를 위한 세포자계측정, LDH활성도 및 Apoptosis

To evaluate the cytotoxicity of cadmium compounds, this study was conducted to measure the in vitro magnetometry, LDH release and cellular apoptosis using alveolar macrophages of hamsters. A series of magnetometric measurements in cadmium-added groups showed a significant dose-dependent decay of the relaxation curves. The LDH release rates showed a dose-dependently increasing tendency as the dose gradually increased. The positive rates of apoptosis were significantly higher in cadmium-added groups than the control groups. Conclusively, the cytotoxicity increased in a dose dependent way as the concentration of cadmium added increased, which reflected in the decay of relaxation curve in magnetometry, and increased LDH release rate and positive rate of apoptosis.
