Heavy metal induced oxidative stress & its possible reversal by chelation therapy.
TL;DR: A comprehensive account of recent developments in the research on heavy metal poisoning particularly the role of oxidative stress/free radicals in the toxic manifestation is attempted, an update about the recent strategies for the treatment with chelating agents and a possible beneficial role of antioxidants supplementation to achieve the optimum effects are attempted.

TL;DR: Recent studies show that cadmium induces various epigenetic changes in mammalian cells, both in vivo and in vitro, causing pathogenic risks and the development of various types of cancers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Insight into the oxidative stress induced by lead and/or cadmium in blood, liver and kidneys
TL;DR: Short and long term studies conducted on Pb or Cd-induced oxidative stress in blood, liver and kidneys as the most prominent target organs of the toxicity of these metals are reviewed and the possible molecular mechanisms of the observed effects are proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biomedical implications of heavy metals induced imbalances in redox systems.
TL;DR: The present review illustrates an account of the current knowledge about the effects of heavy metals induced oxidative stress as well as the possible remedies of metal toxicity through natural/synthetic antioxidants, which may render their effects by reducing the concentration of toxic metal(s).
