Cadmium Disrupts the Diethylstilbestrol Effect on Very-Low-Density Apolipoprotein II Gene Transcription in the Liver of Japanese Quail (Coturnix japonica)

To explore the possible endocrine-disrupting effect of cadmium (Cd), we have tested its role on very-low-density apolipoprotein II mRNA (apoVLDL II) expression by diethylstilbestrol (DES) in Japanese quail. Three-week-old immature male quail were intraperitoneally injected with DES (10mg/kg body wt...
