In vitro results indicate that physiological doses of Cd increase vascular endothelial permeability up to 6-fold by (1) inhibition of endothelial cell proliferation, and (2) induction of a caspase-independent but Bcl-xL-inhibitable form of cell death more than 72 hours after Cd addition. Both phenomena are preceded by Cd-induced DNA strand breaks and a cellular DNA damage response. Zinc showed a potent protective effect against deleterious effects of Cd both in the in vitro and human studies.\n          <\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>\n            <jats:bold>\n              <jats:italic>Conclusion\u2014<\/jats:italic>\n            <\/jats:bold>\n            Our research suggests Cd has promoting effects on early human and murine atherosclerosis, which were partly offset by high Zn concentrations.\n          <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1161\/atvbaha.109.190082","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2009,6,26]],"date-time":"2009-06-26T01:55:51Z","timestamp":1245981351000},"page":"1392-1398","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1161\/crossmarkpolicy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":268,"title":["Cadmium Is a Novel and Independent Risk Factor for Early Atherosclerosis Mechanisms and In Vivo Relevance"],"prefix":"10.1161","volume":"29","author":[{"given":"Barbara","family":"Messner","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Cardiac Surgery Research Laboratory, Department of Cardiac Surgery (B.M., I.Z., G.L., D.B.), the Departments of Neurology (M.K., J.W., S.K.) and Medicine (A.R.), and the Division of Histology and Embryology (K.P.), Innsbruck Medical University, Austria;
