Effect of cadmium on lipid metabolism of brain: in vivo incorporation of labelled acetate into lipids.
The effect of early postnatal cadmium exposure on the in vivo incorporation of (1-14C) sodium acetate into various lipid classes of the weanling rat brain was studied. A stimulated incorporation of the label was observed in total lipids, phospholipids, cholesterol, cerebrosides and sulphatides of the brain of Cd-exposed animals compared to controls.
