Drinking water containing 200 μg/ml lead (labeled with210Pb) was provided to adult female mice for 105 days prior to the date of mating or for 105 days prior to mating and during the periods of gestation and lactation (160 days total exposure). During lactation there was an increased rate of lead elimination from adult mice exposed prior to mating compared to nonlactating female mice. The magnitude of the additional lead elimination during lactation was similar to the magnitude of the decrease in femur ash weights during lactation. These data support the hypothesis that lead mobilization during lactation is the result of bone mineral mobilization. Approximately 3% of the lead body burden of mothers exposed to lead prior to mating was retained in litters of suckling pups as a result of lead transferred in milk. The magnitude of lead mobilized from maternal bone during lactation was not increased by a diet which was moderately calcium deficient. Continuous ingestion of lead by mothers during lactation significantly increased the net transfer of lead to suckled pups. Lead transferred from mother to offspring during lactation greatly exceeded transfer during gestation for all treatment groups. These data indicate that both prior and current maternal lead exposure should be considered in assessing potential lead exposure of suckling infants.
