Nickel Exposure and Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS)

  • Direct Mechanism: Yes, high exposure to nickel can significantly induce the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and oxidative stress within biological systems.
  • Fenton-Type Reactions: Nickel is a transition metal that can participate in redox cycling and Fenton-like reactions, leading to the production of highly damaging free radicals such as the hydroxyl radical.
  • Antioxidant Depletion: Excess nickel exposure often results in the depletion of crucial intracellular antioxidant defenses, notably glutathione (GSH), exacerbating oxidative damage to lipids, proteins, and DNA.
  • Cellular Impact: The resulting oxidative stress is a primary driver of nickel-induced cytotoxicity, genotoxicity, and inflammation at the cellular level.
