Our previous results showed that cadmium (Cd)‐adapted lung epithelial cells (LECs) developed resistance to apoptosis due to non‐responsiveness of the c‐Jun N‐terminal kinase pathway and augmented expression of cytokeratin 8. Since cellular Cd entry is a prerequisite in order for Cd to elicit its cytotoxicity, therefore, we wonder if there are differential metal ion transport ability and also other phenotypic changes that occurred in these Cd‐resistant LECs.
