Abstract
Arsenic is a widely distributed environmental toxic substance in nature. Chronic arsenic exposure can cause permanent damage to the liver, resulting in the death of poisoned patients. However, the mechanism of liver damage caused by arsenic poisoning is yet unclear. Here, four different concentrations of sodium arsenite (NaAsO2) (0 mg/L (control group), 25 mg/L, 50 mg/L, and 100 mg/L group)were established to induce liver injury in rats. Taking this into account, the relationship and potential mechanisms of oxidative stress, Bcl-2/adenovirus E1B-19-kDa-interacting protein 3 (BNIP3), and inhibition of autophagy flux in liver injury caused by arsenic poisoning were studied. The results indicated that long-term exposure to NaAsO2 could induce oxidative stress, leading to high expression of BNIP3, thereby impaired autophagy flux, and ultimately resulting in liver damage. This research provides an important basis for future research on liver damage caused by chronic arsenic exposure and prevention and treatment with BNIP3 as the target.
