Rice Cultivars Significantly Mitigate Cadmium Accumulation in Grains and Its Bioaccessibility and Toxicity in Human HL-7702 Cells.
Environmental pollution(2021)
摘要
Excessive Cd accumulation in cereals, especially in high-consumption staple crops, such as rice, is of major concern. Therefore, elucidation of cultivar-specific variation in rice grain Cd bioaccessibility and toxicity in humans would help the development of remedial strategies for Cd accumulation and toxicity. The present study combined an in vitro gastrointestinal digestion model with a human HL-7702 cell and assessed Cd bioaccessibility and toxicity to humans from the grains of 30 rice cultivars of different types harvested from Cd-contaminated paddy soil. The mean grain Cd content of cultivars within the type exceeded acceptable national standards. Cadmium bioaccessibility was high in all grains (9.08-23.6%) except the low accumulator (LA) rice cultivar (7.93%). The mean estimated daily intake of Cd via the cultivars (except LA) exceeded the FAO/WHO permissible limit based not only on the total grain Cd concentration but also on bioaccessible Cd concentration. A dose-proportional correlation between the in vitro bioaccessible and total grain Cd concentrations was observed, suggesting that Cd bioaccessibility accurately reflects the transfer of Cd from rice grain to humans. Toxicity assay results demonstrated that Cd from rice grains could commence oxidative stress and injury in HL-7702 cells, except the LA rice, which did not exhibit significant alteration in HL-7702 cells owing to its low Cd concentration. These results provide primary evidence to suggest that the cultivation of the LA rice cultivar is an effective agronomic approach to avert Cd entry into the food chain and alleviate Cd toxicity in humans.
