Role of reactive oxygen metabolites in organophosphate-bidrin-induced renal tubular cytotoxicity.

چکیده
Due to low toxicity to nontarget species and rapid degradation after its application, organophosphate (OP) remains a widely used class of pesticide. Suicidal or accidental overdose of OP can result in acute tubular necrosis. Experimental evidence shows little correlation between the renal tubular necrosis and the degree of OP-induced acetylcholinesterase inhibition, the main mechanism of OP's toxicity, suggesting the involvement of alternate mechanisms. Since reactive oxygen species (ROS) are known mediators of many toxin-induced renal injuries, this study was conducted to investigate whether ROS play a role in Bidrin (BD)-induced renal tubular epithelial cell (LLC-PK1) toxicity. BD is an OP insecticide formulation with dicrotophos as the active ingredient. LLC-PK1 cell death, determined by lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release (% of total), rose concentration- and time-dependently after exposure of the cells to 1000, 1250, 1500, 1750, and 2000 ppm of BD for 6, 12, 24, and 48 h. Antioxidants 2-methylaminochroman (2-MAC; 0.3 to 2.5 microM) and desferrioxamine (DFO; 0.25 to 2 mM) reduced cell damage induced by 1250 ppm of BD over a 24-h incubation in a concentration-related manner. The greatest reductions in % LDH were produced by DFO 2 mM and 2-MAC 2.5 microM, both significantly lower than BD alone. H2O2 levels (micromol/mg protein per h) were significantly elevated after exposure to 1250 ppm of BD. Significantly increased malondialdehyde formation (nmol/mg protein) compared with control was also found in BD-exposed cells indicating enhanced lipid peroxidation. Malondialdehyde generation was significantly suppressed by 2-MAC and DFO. These results demonstrate that the organophosphate BD can cause direct tubular cytotoxicity, and implicate, at least in part, a role for ROS and accompanying lipid peroxidation in cytotoxicity. Based on these direct in vitro findings, it is hypothesized that, besides hypotension that often accompanies OP intoxication, OP-induced oxidative stress at the tubular level may play a role in the pathogenesis of acute tubular necrosis.

Role of oxidant stress and antioxidant protection in acephate-induced renal tubular cytotoxicity.
Acephate (AT) is an organophosphate (OP) insecticide. Due to their reputation for low environmental persistence, OP pesticides are often used indiscriminately resulting in detrimental exposure to humans and other nontarget species. Although the toxicity of OP compounds is primarily through blockade of neural transmission via inhibition of acetylcholinesterase, studies have revealed histopatholo...

Objective(s):Gentamicin sulphate (GS) nephrotoxicity seems to be related to the generation of reactive oxygen species. There is evidence that oxygen preconditioning increases the activity of antioxidant enzymes. Materials and Methods: Forty eight female rats were divided into 6 groups (n=8) as follows: group 1 was the control, group 2 received daily GS, groups 3,4 and 5 received oxygen 2 hr/day...
