Low-Dose Cadmium Upregulates VEGF Expression in Lung Adenocarcinoma Cells
Cadmium (Cd) is a heavy metal and environmental toxin. Exposure to Cd has been associated with a variety of human cancers. In this study, we performed in vitro assays to examine the effects of cadmium chloride (CdCl2) on A549 cells, a human lung adenocarcinoma cell line. Cd does not affect prolifera...
