Depletion of ATP and Oxidative Stress Underlie Zinc-Induced Cell Injury
The mechanisms of cell injury resulting in a special type of cell death combining the features of apoptosis and necrosis were examined in Hep-2 cells exposed to 300 μM zinc sulfate during 24h. Acute exposure to zinc induced a rapid rise in metallothionein levels and increased oxidative stress occurr...
