Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
We examined the effects of cadmium chloride (CdCl) exposure on the phosphorylation and function of the forkhead box class O (FOXO) transcription factor FOXO3a in HK-2 human renal proximal tubular cells. Phosphorylation of FOXO3a (at Thr32 and Ser253) and its upstream kinase, Akt (at Thr308 and Ser473) were markedly increased following exposure to 10 or 20 μM CdCl. Treatment with wortmannin (500 nM), an inhibitor of phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K), suppressed CdCl-induced phosphorylation of Akt and FOXO3a at their Akt phosphorylation sites. CdCl -induced phosphorylation of FOXO3a was markedly suppressed by the epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitor, AG1478 (1 μM), the Ca /calmodulin-dependent kinase II inhibitor, KN-93 (10 μM), and the Src inhibitor, PP2 (10 μM), but only partially suppressed by the insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor inhibitor, PPP (2.5 μM). Furthermore, the p38 inhibitor, SB203580 (20 μM), suppressed CdCl-induced phosphorylation of Akt and FOXO3a, suggesting possible cross-talk between p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase and Akt. Although phosphorylation of FOXO3a was associated with reduced levels of nuclear FOXO3a, this change in cellular localization was transient. Silencing of FOXO3a expression using short interfering RNA suppressed CdCl-induced cellular damage and accumulation of cytoplasmic nucleosomes in HK-2 cells. These results show that cadmium exposure induces phosphorylation of FOXO3a through the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway and suggest that FOXO3a phosphorylation (inactivation) transiently promotes survival of HK-2 cells. Phosphorylation of FOXO3a by the PI3K/Akt pathway may regulate cell fate in proximal tubules exposed to cadmium. © 2013 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
