- Abstract
The article presents the study which aims to determine the involvement of Na+-K+ ATPhase-inhibitory action in health related toxicity in cadmium. It consisted of 166 urban Caucasian men wherein the hair cadmium and red blood cell pump of men without cadmium exposure were measured. It performed the standard linear regression and analysis of variance technique. Results shows that Na+-K+ pump activity is reciprocal to the hair cadmium of current-smokers.
