代谢
铅和铬通过吸入、口服和皮肤接触被吸收,然后主要分布到骨骼和红细胞中。在血液中,铅可能被发现与血清白蛋白或金属结合蛋白金属lothionein结合。有机铅通过细胞色素P-450酶代谢,而无机铅与δ-氨基酮酸脱水酶形成复合物。铅主要通过尿液和粪便排出。铬分布到几乎所有的组织中,肾脏和肝脏中浓度最高。骨骼也是一个主要的储存场所,可能对长期保留有所贡献。六价铬与硫酸盐和铬酸盐的相似性允许它通过硫酸盐转运机制进入细胞。在细胞内,六价铬首先被还原为五价铬,然后通过许多物质,包括抗坏血酸、谷胱甘肽和烟酸腺嘌呤二核苷酸还原为三价铬。铬几乎全部通过尿液排出。(A12, L16, L136)
Lead and chromium are absorbed following inhalation, oral, and dermal exposure. It is then distributed mainly to the bones and red blood cells. In the blood lead may be found bound to serum albumin or the metal-binding protein metallothionein. Organic lead is metabolized by cytochrome P-450 enzymes, whereas inorganic lead forms complexes with delta-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase. Lead is excreted mainly in the urine and faeces. Chromium distributes to nearly all tissues, with the highest concentrations found in kidney and liver. Bone is also a major storage site and may contribute to long-term retention. Hexavalent chromium's similarity to sulfate and chromate allow it to be transported into cells via sulfate transport mechanisms. Inside the cell, hexavalent chromium is reduced first to pentavalent chromium, then to trivalent chromium by many substances including ascorbate, glutathione, and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. Chromium is almost entirely excreted with the urine. (A12, L16, L136)
