The Keap1-Nrf2-ARE signalling pathway has emerged as an important regulator of the mammalian defence system to enable detoxification and clearance of foreign chemicals. Recent studies by our group using paracetamol (APAP), diethylmaleate and buthionine sulphoximine have shown that for a given xenobiotic molecule, Nrf2 induction in the murine liver is associated with protein reactivity and glutathione depletion. Here, we have investigated, in vivo, whether the ability of four murine hepatotoxins, paracetamol, bromobenzene (BB), carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) and furosemide (FS) to deplete hepatic glutathione (GSH) is related to induction of hepatic Nrf2 nuclear translocation and Nrf2-dependent gene expression. Additionally, we studied whether hepatic Nrf2 nuclear translocation is a general response during the early stages of acute hepatic chemical stress in vivo. Male CD-1 mice were administered APAP (3.5 mmol/kg), FS (1.21 mmol/kg), BB (4.8 mmol/kg) and CCl4 (1 mmol/kg) for 1, 5 and 24h. Each compound elicited significant serum ALT increases after 24h (ALT U/L: APAP, 3036+/-1462; BB, 5308+/-2210; CCl4, 5089+/-1665; FS, 2301+/-1053), accompanied by centrilobular damage as assessed by histopathology. Treatment with APAP also elicited toxicity at a much earlier time point (5h) than the other hepatotoxins (ALT U/L: APAP, 1780+/-661; BB, 161+/-15; CCl4, 90+/-23; FS, 136+/-27). Significant GSH depletion was seen with APAP (9.6+/-1.7% of control levels) and BB (52.8+/-6.2% of control levels) 1h after administration, but not with FS and CCl4. Western Blot analysis revealed an increase in nuclear Nrf2, 1h after administration of BB (209+/-10% control), CCl4 (146+/-3% control) and FS (254+/-41% control), however this was significantly lower than the levels observed in the APAP-treated mice (462+/-36% control). The levels of Nrf2-dependent gene induction were also analysed by quantitative real-time PCR and Western blotting. Treatment with APAP for 1h caused a significant increase in the levels of haem oxygenase-1 (HO-1; 2.85-fold) and glutamate cysteine ligase (GCLC; 1.62-fold) mRNA. BB and FS did not affect the mRNA levels of either gene after 1h of treatment; however CCl4 significantly increased HO-1 mRNA at this time point. After 24h treatment with the hepatotoxins, there was evidence for the initiation of a late defence response. BB significantly increased both HO-1 and GCLC protein at this time point, CCl4 increased GCLC protein alone, although FS did not alter either of these proteins. In summary, we have demonstrated that the hepatotoxins BB, CCl4 and FS can induce a small but significant increase in Nrf2 accumulation in hepatic nuclei. However, this was associated with modest changes in hepatic GSH, a delayed development of toxicity and was insufficient to activate an early functional adaptive response to these hepatotoxins. 相似文献

Diphenylarsinic acid (DPAA), a chemical warfare-related neurotoxic organic arsenical, is present in the groundwater and soil in some regions of Japan due to illegal dumping after World War II. Inorganic arsenic is carcinogenic in humans and its organic arsenic metabolites are carcinogenic in animal studies, raising serious concerns about the carcinogenicity of DPAA. However, the carcinogenic potential of DPAA has not yet been evaluated. In the present study we found that DPAA significantly enhanced the development of diethylnitrosamine-induced preneoplastic lesions in the liver in a medium-term rat liver carcinogenesis assay. Evaluation of the expression of cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes in the liver revealed that DPAA induced the expression of CYP1B1, but not any other CYP1, CYP2, or CYP3 enzymes, suggesting that CYP1B1 might be the enzyme responsible for the metabolic activation of DPAA. We also found increased oxidative DNA damage, possibly due to elevated CYP1B1 expression. Induction of CYP1B1 has generally been linked with the activation of AhR, and we found that DPAA activates the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR). Importantly, the promotion effect of DPAA was observed only at a dose that activated the AhR, suggesting that activation of AhR and consequent induction of AhR target genes and oxidative DNA damage plays a vital role in the promotion effects of DPAA. The present study provides, for the first time, evidence regarding the carcinogenicity of DPAA and indicates the necessity of comprehensive evaluation of its carcinogenic potential using long-term carcinogenicity studies. 相似文献

Cisplatin is used against various types of solid tumors. However, its use is limited by its nephrotoxicity, with about 25–35% patients experiencing a significant decline in renal function after a single dose of cisplatin. This study reports that lycopene mitigates the nephrotoxic effect of cisplatin in rat through Nrf2-mediated induction of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1). Eight weeks old male rats (200–215 g) were supplemented with lycopene complex containing 6% lycopene, 1.5% tocopherols, 1% phytoene and phytofluene, and 0.2% β-carotene for 10 days at a dose level of 6 mg/kg bw, followed by a single i.p. injection of cisplatin (7 mg/kg bw). Western blot analysis of renal Nrf2, HO-1 and NF-κB p65 showed that cisplatin-induced decrease in the levels of Nrf-2 and HO-1 was counteracted by lycopene. On the other hand, cisplatin mediated increase in NF-κB p65 was brought down by lycopene. Lycopene supplementation is reported to significantly improve the changes associated with cisplatin nephrotoxicity, as also evident by increased level of antioxidant enzymes. The study suggests that Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway may be the prime target for chemoprevention of cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity by lycopene, and reduces inflammation by inhibiting NF-κB. Correlation between NF-κB and Nrf2 is discussed. 相似文献

This review focuses on the emerging evidence that reactive oxygen species (ROS) derived from glucose metabolism, such as H2O2, act as metabolic signaling molecules for glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) in pancreatic beta-cells. Particular emphasis is placed on the potential inhibitory role of endogenous antioxidants, which rise in response to oxidative stress, in glucose-triggered ROS and GSIS. We propose that cellular adaptive response to oxidative stress challenge, such as nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2)-mediated antioxidant induction, plays paradoxical roles in pancreatic beta-cell function. On the one hand, induction of antioxidant enzymes protects beta-cells from oxidative damage and possible cell death, thus minimizing oxidative damage-related impairment of insulin secretion. On the other hand, the induction of antioxidant enzymes by Nrf2 activation blunts glucose-triggered ROS signaling, thus resulting in reduced GSIS. These two premises are potentially relevant to impairment of beta-cells occurring in the late and early stage of Type 2 diabetes, respectively. In addition, we summarized our recent findings that persistent oxidative stress due to absence of uncoupling protein 2 activates cellular adaptive response which is associated with impaired pancreatic beta-cell function. 相似文献

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), the main components of coke oven emissions, can induce activation of cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes, which metabolize PAHs and result in DNA damage by forming adducts. This study was designed to know whether genetic variants of CYP genes are associated with plasma benzo[a]pyrene-7,8-diol-9,10-epoxide-albumin (BPDE-Alb) adducts and DNA damage in coke oven workers. In this study, 298 workers were divided into four groups according to the environmental PAHs exposure levels. The concentrations of plasma BPDE-Alb adducts were detected by reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography and the DNA damage levels were measured using comet assay. Twelve tag single nucleotide polymorphisms (tagSNPs) of 4 CYP genes were selected and genotyped by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. In the top group, workers with CYP2B6 rs3760657GA genotype have lower BPDE-Alb adducts and DNA damage levels than those with rs3760657GG genotype (P < 0.05). In the control group, the DNA damage levels of subjects with CYP1A1 rs4646421AA or GA + AA genotypes were lower than those with GG genotype (P < 0.05). However, no such effects were shown for the other tagSNPs. These results suggested that genetic variations of CYP2B6 might be associated with low BPDE-Alb adducts and DNA damage levels in worker with high exposure to PAHs. 相似文献

2-Amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (PhIP) is a colon carcinogen in rats. In the present study the absorption of PhIP in the small and large intestine of Fischer 344 rats was determined, and the relevance of the differences in the degree of absorption of PhIP along the gastrointestinal axis for the PhIP-mediated colon carcinogenesis process is discussed. PhIP uptake was low in the different gut sections of Fischer 344 rats, the PhIP tissue levels varying in the following order: proximal jejunum > distal jejunum > proximal colon > distal colon = rectum. Furthermore, abcc2 was mainly expressed in the proximal parts of the small intestine, in particular in the proximal jejunum. Extremely low expression levels were observed in distal jejunum, ileum, caecum and proximal colon, whereas abcc2 was almost not detected in distal colon and rectum. These data, together with previously published results, lend support to the hypothesis that PhIP is taken up in the proximal segments of the small intestine and after being metabolically activated in the liver reaches the stem cell compartment of the colonic crypts via the blood circulation, the crypt cells in the distal colon and rectum being particularly at risk, since these almost do not express abcc2. 相似文献

2-Amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (PhIP) is a carcinogenic heterocyclic amine formed in meats during cooking. Although the formation of PhIP metabolites by mammalian enzymes has been extensively reported, the involvement of the intestinal bacteria remains unclear. This study examined the urinary and fecal excretion of a newly identified microbial PhIP metabolite 7-hydroxy-5-methyl-3-phenyl-6,7,8,9-tetrahydropyrido[3',2':4,5]imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidin-5-ium chloride (PhIP-M1) in humans. The subjects were fed 150 g of cooked chicken containing 0.88-4.7 microg PhIP, and urine and feces collections were obtained during 72 h after the meal. PhIP-M1 and its trideuterated derivate were synthesized and a LC/MS/MS method was developed for their quantification. The mutagenic activity of PhIP-M1, as analyzed using the Salmonella strains TA98, TA100 and TA102, yielded no significant response. Of the ingested PhIP dose, volunteers excreted 12-21% as PhIP and 1.2-15% as PhIP-M1 in urine, and 26-42% as PhIP and 0.9-11% as PhIP-M1 in feces. The rate of PhIP-M1 excretion varied among the subjects. Yet, an increase in urinary excretion was observed for successive time increments, whereas for PhIP the majority was excreted in the first 24h. These findings suggest that besides differences in digestion, metabolism and diet, the microbial composition of the gastrointestinal tract also strongly influences individual disposition and carcinogenic risk from PhIP. 相似文献

Exogenous treatment with monosialoganglioside GM1 has been described to afford protection against different apoptotic insults. However, the underlying mechanisms remain to be determined. In this study, we focused on the effect of GM1 on the apoptotic cascade induced by benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) in rat hepatic F258 epithelial cells. We first demonstrated that a co-treatment with GM1 (80 microM) reduced B[a]P (50 nM)-induced apoptosis as evidenced by a decrease of both cell population exhibiting nuclear fragmentation and caspase 3 cleavage and activity. We next showed that the p53 phosphorylation and nuclear translocation as well as the intracellular alkalinization related to Na+/H+ exchanger 1 (NHE1) activation, two early events of the apoptosis induced by B[a]P, were not inhibited by GM1. In contrast, the late mitochondria-dependent acidification elicited by B[a]P was inhibited by GM1 co-treatment, and an inhibition of the oxidative stress was also observed. Because GM1 has been shown to reduce the low-molecular weight iron content related to ethanol-induced oxidative stress, we finally investigated the involvement of iron under our conditions. Using the two iron chelators deferiprone and desferrioxamine, we clearly showed that iron played an important role in B[a]P-induced apoptosis in F258 cells, and that B[a]P-treatment resulted in a significant GM1-sensitive increase in (55)Fe uptake. In conclusion, our results indicate that exogenous GM1 partly prevents B[a]P-induced apoptosis by interfering with mitochondria-related intracellular acidification and iron transport. 相似文献

A recent study using c-Ha-ras proto-oncogene transgenic (rasTg) rats demonstrated possible enhancing effects of diacylglycerol (DAG) on 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide (4NQO) induced carcinogenesis of the tongue. To assess effects in their Sprague-Dawley back strain, a two-stage carcinogenesis study using 4NQO as an initiator was performed. Groups of 30 male rats were initially treated with 4NQO at a dose of 10ppm in the drinking water for the first 10 weeks followed after a 1 week recovery interval by 11% DAG, 5.5% DAG+5.5% triacylglycerol (TAG), 2.75% DAG+8.25% TAG, 1.38 DAG+9.62% TAG, 11% TAG, 11% high linoleic acid TAG (HLTG), 5.5% DAG or 2.75% DAG in the diet for 35 weeks. Further groups of animals were treated with distilled water instead of 4NQO followed by 11% DAG, 11% TAG or 11% HLTG in the same manner. The final survival rates in 4NQO-treated groups were from 50 to 77%. However, incidences and multiplicities of squamous cell papillomas and carcinomas in the oral cavity induced by 4NQO were not affected by any of the dietary treatments. Thus, in contrast to the positive data using rasTg rats, DAG had no potential for enhancing 4NQO-induced tumorigenesis in their back strain. 相似文献
