Depleted uranium (DU) is a byproduct of uranium enrichment, which can cause heavy-metal toxicity and radiation toxicity as well as serious damage to the kidneys. However, the mechanism of renal injury induced by DU is still unclear. This study aimed to explore the role of ethylmalonic encephalopathy 1 (ETHE1) in DU-induced mitochondrial dysfunction and elucidate the underlying mechanisms.

During the spring of 2024, 33 members of a group of Gulf War I veterans wounded in depleted uranium (DU) friendly-fire incidents were seen at the Baltimore VA Medical Center for surveillance related to their combat exposure. The cohort was assessed with a protocol which includes exposure monitoring for total and isotopic uranium (U) concentrations in urine and a comprehensive assessment of health outcomes including measures of bone metabolism and bone mineral density (BMD). An audiometry examination of the cohort was added to assess for acoustic trauma and toxic metal effects in this surveillance episode marking over 30 years since this exposure event.

Article Synopsis
  • - Depleted uranium (DU) from the nuclear industry can harm kidneys by causing oxidative damage and inflammation through mitochondrial pathways, leading to health issues.
  • - A new nanoparticle, MPDA-PEG-TPP, has been developed to specifically target and protect kidneys from DU injury, showing better bioavailability and targeting compared to existing treatments.
  • - Test results indicate that MPDA-PEG-TPP effectively removes harmful reactive oxygen species and alleviates mitochondrial dysfunction, proving to be a promising solution for kidney protection against DU exposure.

Depleted uranium (DU), as a heavy metal material extensively utilized in the industrial sector, poses potential health risks to humans through various exposure pathways, including inhalation, ingestion, and dermal contact. To comprehensively understand the toxicological hazards of DU, this study conducted a literature search in the Web of Science Core Collection database using "DU" and "toxicity" as keywords, covering the period from January 2000 to December 2023. A total of 65 papers related to human, animal, or cellular studies on DU were included.
