Cadmium (Cd) is a heavy metal pollutant that adversely effects the kidney. Oxidative stress and inflammation are likely major mechanisms of Cd-induced kidney injury. Nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 (Nrf2) is crucial in regulating antioxidant and inflammatory responses. To investigate the role of Nrf2 in the development of subacute Cd-induced renal injury, we utilized Nrf2 knockout (Nrf2-KO) and control mice (Nrf2-WT) which were given cadmium chloride (CdCl2, 1 or 2 mg/kg i.p.) once daily for 7 days. While subacute CdCl2 exposure induced kidney i
