Biochem/physiol Actions

Nickel (Ni) is an essential trace element that plays an important role in the structure and function of DNA, RNA and protein. It has toxic effects on renal, pulmonary and cardiovascular system at higher concentrations. Nickel is implicated in carcinogenesis. Ni²⁺ ions is a clastogenic agent. Nickel ions (Ni²⁺) is a non-specific voltage-gated calcium channel blocker.
