We tested the hypothesis that acute cadmium exposure would lead to increased oxidative damage in various brain regions. Adult male rats were treated either with a single dose of 50 ppm of CdCl2 (LD50), or a single dose of 100 ppm CdCl2 (LD50), against control group not exposed to Cd. The enzymatic activity of total and mitochondrial SOD, as well as GR was significantly and dose-depending decreased, but MDA content was shown only a moderate increase. Results demonstrated the harmful effects of acute Cd exposure, in the nervous tissue, through mechanisms of oxidative damage.
