Cadmium (Cd) is able to decrease preovulatory luteinizing hormone (LH) levels in blood
and inhibit ovulation in rats. In this study the direct effects of Cd on steroidogenesis in …

Recently, cadmium has been described to disturb ovarian function in rats. In this paper the
direct influence of cadmium on steroid production of ovarian cells in vitro has been studied …

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the direct effect (s) of in vitro cadmium (Cd)
exposure on steroidogenesis in rat ovaries during different reproductive states. Sprague …

Adult female rats were treated subcutaneously (sc) with zinc chloride (ZnCl, 10 or 20 mg kg
body weight, bw) four times during two ovarian cycles. The third injection was accompanied …

Lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd) are known reproductive toxicants, which accumulate in
granulosa cells of the ovary. Female Charles foster rats were treated with sodium acetate …

This study examined the toxic effects of cadmium on the function of sexual hormone release
in the ovaries of rats and the mechanism of this dysregulation. In vivo, adult female rats were …

Objectives. The paper presents results of collaborative research on cadmium as an
endocrine disruptor. To detect steroidogenic alterations in cycling and pregnant rats …

This study was designed to examine the characteristics of cadmium bioaccumulation by
human trophoblast cells in culture and the subsequent effect of cadmium exposure on …

On the day of diestrus II CFY rats were given 5, 10, or 15 mg/kg cadmium chloride (CdCl 2)
or 1.0 mL/kg of 0.9% NaCl. On the next day a group of animals was anesthetized with …

Effects of lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd) both alone or in combination on the binding of LH
and FSH on isolated granulosa cells were studied. Granulosa cells isolated from proestrous …
