Effects of telmisartan on renal cadmium, selenium and zin ion concentrations
Mice that received cadmium chloride showed a significant
increase in cadmium ion concentration associated with significant
reductions in selenium and zinc ion concentrations in the kidney
tissue as compared to the control animals. However, telmisartantreated
mice had a significantly lower renal cadmium level and higher
selenium and zinc levels in comparison with the cadmium group,
non-treated with telmisartan (Table 3).
