Abstract:
:The role of the mammalian skeleton as an endogenous lead source is unclear. This is due in part to difficulties in distinguishing mobilized skeletal lead from other endogenous and exogenous lead sources. Therefore, we have applied ultraclean stable lead isotope techniques to label skeletal and soft tissue lead compartments within the rat with distinguishable lead isotopic signatures. Female Wistar (defined flora) rats were fed 206Pb-enriched drinking water ([Pb] = 110 ng/ml) and sacrificed after durations of 2, 4, 7, and 14 days. Blood, kidney, vertebra, and tibia tissues were analyzed for lead concentrations and stable isotopic compositions. The resulting isotopic ratios in soft (blood and kidney) and skeletal (vertebrae and tibia) tissues differed by approximately 40% after 2 days exposure to the 206Pb tracer. More than 90% of the tracer isotopic signature was contained in the soft tissues after 10 days exposure, while skeletal tissues acquired only approximately 50% of the tracer by the end of the study. Because these animals were maintained under trace metal-clean conditions, they contained lead concentrations in whole blood (0.3-3 ng/g), kidney (11-27 ng/g dry wt), and bone (35-70 ng/g dry wt) tissues that are the lowest known reported for contemporary terrestrial mammals, and they (in bone) are comparable to levels in preindustrial mammals. The elevated concentrations of lead in kidney (fresh weight) relative to levels in blood are consistent with the presence of specific lead-binding sites in the kidney at very low levels of exposure.
