A Review of Molecular Events of Cadmium-Induced Carcinogenesis
This review outlines the complex molecular and cellular pathways involved in cadmium (Cd)-induced carcinogenesis. Cd, though not directly mutagenic, promotes tumorigenesis through indirect mechanisms including oxidative stress, inhibition of DNA repair, disruption of cell cycle regulation, apoptosis suppression, and epigenetic alterations. The article highlights key molecular events such as the
