Calcium/cadmium interactions at uptake surfaces in rainbow trout: Waterborne versus dietary routes of exposure
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Juvenile rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) were exposed to control, 3 microg/L waterborne Cd, or 500 mg/kg dietary Cd in combination with either a control (20 mg/g Ca2+ as CaCO3) or elevated (60 mg/g Ca2+) Ca2+ diet for 28 d. No mortality or growth effects were observed in response to either route of Cd exposure, although fish fed Ca2+-supplemented diets exhibited minor reductions in growth within the first few days of feeding. Waterborne and dietary Cd resulted in significant Cd accumulation in most tissues, with dietary uptake being far in excess of waterborne under the exposure conditions used. The order of Cd accumulation strongly reflected the exposure pathway, being gill and kidney > liver > gut > carcass (waterborne Cd); gut > kidney > liver > gill > carcass > bone (dietary Cd). On a whole-body basis, the net retention of Cd from the diet was < 1%, indicating that the gut wall forms an important protective barrier reducing Cd accumulation into internal tissues. Dietary Ca2+ supplementation reduced short-term whole-body uptake rates of waterborne Ca2+ and Cd by >50% and resulted in much lower chronic accumulation of Cd (via the water and diet) in target tissues. Results suggest that Ca2+ and Cd share common pathway(s)/transport mechanism(s) in the gill and gut and that increased gastrointestinal Ca2+ uptake likely caused downregulation of branchial and gastrointestinal Ca2+ and therefore Cd uptake pathways. Because nutrient metals other than Ca2+ may also influence Cd (and other metal) uptake, new regulatory approaches to metal toxicity (e.g., biotic ligand model) require understanding of the influence of dietary status on metal accumulation.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
