    Notes: Abstract Distribution and retention of mercury and selenium was studied in rats exposed repeatedly to HgCl2 injections (0.5 mg Hg/kg to the tail vein every other day) and intragastrically to Na2SeO3 (0.5 mg Se/kg every day), applying combined and separate administration of these metals for 2 weeks. Whole-body retention of mercury in the presence of selenium was augmented by 20% and that of selenium in the presence of mercury by 4% with respect to the administered dose. Combined administration of mercuric chloride and sodium selenite brought about damage to the epithelial cells of renal proximal convolutions and formation of protein casts in their lumen. These changes had the same pattern as those induced by administration of mercuric chloride alone, but the intensity was lower. Submicroscopic studies revealed that repeated combined administration of sodium selenite and mercuric chloride did not completely abolish the mercury-induced mitochondrial swelling and contributed to chromatin destruction in the hepatocyte nuclei.

    Notes: Abstract The effect of single (SC) administration of mercuric chloride (1 mg Hg/kg) alone or jointly with (PO) sodium selenite (0.39 mg Se/kg) on kidney disposition of mercury (Hg) and metallothionein (MT) and urinary excretion of Hg, zinc (Zn) and copper (Cu) has been studied in the female rat. The excretion of Hg and essential metals was determined every day following exposure. Daily excretion of endogenous Cu and Zn the Hg-exposed group was about threefold and fourfold, respectively, in comparison with control groups of rats. Sodium selenite prevented the urinary excretion of endogenous Cu and partly of Zn.

    Influence of exposure mode on vinyl chloride action (1984)

    Notes: Abstract Rats were subjected to 4 h continuous or intermittent exposure to vinyl chloride (VC) at different time-weighted average concentrations (15, 50, 150, 500 and 15,000 mg/m3). Hepatic non-protein sulfhydryl content (NPSH) and excretion of thiodiglycolic acid (TdGA) in urine were determined. VC at concentrations from 50 mg/m3 to 15,000 mg/m3 caused a dose-dependent depression of NPSH, but no difference in the magnitude of this depression induced by continuous or intermittent exposure at the same average concentration of VC was noted. At average concentrations of 50 mg/m3 and 150 mg/m3, the urinary excretion of TdGA under continuous exposure did not differ from that under intermittent exposure, whereas at VC concentrations of 500 mg/m3 and 15,000 mg/m3 it was higher following continuous exposure.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Die Verteilung von Quecksilber und Selen wurde in zellfreien Fraktionen von Rattenleber und -nieren untersucht, nachdem getrennt oder zugleich HgCl2 bzw. Na2SeO3 zwei Wochen lang (0,5 mg Hg/kg jeden zweiten Tag i.V., 0,5 mg Se/kg jeden Tag per os, molares Verhältnis l ∶ 5) verabreicht worden waren. Das molare Verhältnis der Hgund Se-Konzentrationen schwankte in den zellfreien Fraktionen der untersuchten Organe beträchtlich. Selen verdrängte Quecksilber aus der löslichen Nierenfraktion. Quecksilber war hauptsächlich mit Metallothionein an die histonfreie Eiweißfraktion der Leberzellkerne gebunden. Unter dem Einfluß von Selen wurde die Hg-stimulierte Biosynthese von Metallothionein unterbunden.
    Notes: Abstract The distribution of mercury and selenium has been examined in subcellular fractions of rat liver and kidneys in prolonged exposure to HgCl2 and Na2SeO3 administered separately and simultaneously. The molar ratio of mercury and selenium concentrations in subcellular fractions of the organs examined varied considerably. Selenium displaced mercury from the soluble kidney fraction bound mainly with metallothionein to the nonhistone protein fraction of liver nuclei. The Hg-stimulated biosynthesis of metallothionein has been eliminated under the influence of selenium.

    Effect of interaction between 65Zn, mercury and selenium in rats (retention, metallothionein, endogenous copper) (1983)

    Notes: Abstract Interaction of zinc with mercuric chloride and sodium selenite was studied in the rat at the organ and subcellular levels (liver and kidneys). Zinc chloride was administered subcutaneously at dose of 5 mg Zn/kg, mercury chloride into the tail vein at a dose of 0.5 mg Hg/kg (both metals every other day during 2 weeks) and sodium selenite intragastrically, at doses of 0.1 mg Se/kg, every day. Zinc retention in the rat did not exceed 20% and was unchanged in the presence of mercury. An interaction effect was reflected by an increased whole-body retention of zinc by selenium, mercury, and selenium. In the presence of selenium no peak of metallothionein-like proteins stimulated by zinc or mercury was found in the soluble fraction of the kidneys. The metallothionein level did not differ from that typical for control group animals, too. A significant increase in the level of endogenous copper was found only in the kidneys of rats exposed to zinc in the presence of mercury and selenium.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Anorganisches Quecksilber, Ratten in einer einzelnen Dose von 0,5 mg Hg/kg verabreicht, wurde in den Nieren vorwiegend in der löslichen (54%) und in der Kern-Fraktion (30%) angereichert, und in beiden Fraktionen wurde eine zeitabhängige Abnahme festgestellt. In der mitochondrialen und mikrosomalen Fraktion, in denen zuerst ca. 11 und 6% Quecksilber gefunden wurde, konnte über die erste Woche eine zunehmende Tendenz festgestellt werden. In der löslichen Fraktion waren die metallothionein-ähnlichen Eiweißstoffe von niedrigem Molekulargewicht vorwiegend für die Bindung von Quecksilber verantwortlich. In anderen Zell-Fraktionen war Quecksilber meistens an Eiweiß-stoffe von hohem Molekulargewicht gebunden.
    Notes: Abstract Inorganic mercury, administered to rats in a single dose of 0.5 mg Hg/kg is accumulated in the kidneys mainly in the soluble (54%) and nuclear (30%) fractions, showing decreasing tendency with time. Mitochondrial and microsomal fractions, initially accumulating approx. 11 and 6% of total Hg, show a tendency to increase the absolute level of Hg for the first week after administration. In the soluble fraction low-molecular weight, metallothioneinlike proteins are mainly responsible for the accumulation of mercury, in other fractions proteins of higher molecular weight prevail.

    Notes: Abstract The effect of stannous chloride on tissue concentrations of zinc and copper was studied in female rats. The animals were subjected to repeated exposure to seven doses given every other day 2 mg Sn/kg, subcutaneously. About 60% of tin 113Sn was retained in the body. Of this amount, about 95% accumulated in the skin and hair. In the remaining organs the tin concentrations corresponded to 2.57 to 0.0001% of the retained dose. In comparison with the control group a 3-fold increase of the content of zinc was found in the liver while a decrease were revealed in the spleen, heart, brain, lungs, and especially in muscle. A statistically significant decrease of the copper content was found in the blood and brain.
