title: [Effect of cadmium chloride on polyphosphoinositides content in the rat liver and kidneys].
abstract: The influence of cadmium chloride on the content of some fractions of polyphosphoinositides in the liver and kidneys of rats has been investigated in the work. We have reported that a single administration of sublethal dose of cadmium chloride leads to the long-term elevation of the content of diacylglycerol, which is responsible for the activation of protein kinase C. The increase of triphosphoinositides fraction content may be connected with activation of phosphoinositid-3-kinase and with accumulation of phosphatidylinositol-3,4-diphosphate and phosphatidilinositol-3,4,5-triphosphate, which are known as activators of some protein kinase C isoforms and also play an important role in the mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathway. The lipids fractions content changes were similar in the liver and kidneys, but had different time of response.
