Abstract
Acetamiprid (ACP) is a novel neonicotinoid insecticide used frequently to eradicate insect pests. Resveratrol (RSV) is a polyphenol used as a potential antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antiapoptotic compound. The current research aimed to investigate the modulation of Jak/Stat, p38 Mapk, and mTOR signaling pathways by RSV in ACP-induced cardiotoxicity. Four equal groups of male rats (10 rats each) were treated daily for 90 days via oral intubation. Group 1 was the control; Group 2 received ACP (25 mg/kg b. wt); Group 3 received RSV (20 mg/kg b. wt); and Group 4 received both ACP and RSV. Gene expression and tissue proteins were analyzed in the heart while biochemical changes were estimated in serum. Histopathological and histochemical alterations of the cardiac tissues were also investigated. ACP administration showed elevations of mRNA expression of the inflammation-related genes (Jak, Stat, NF-κB, p38 Mapk) and tissue proteins (mTOR and TNF-α) in the myocardium. Significant serum high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) level and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity were also recorded. Histopathology and immunohistochemistry showed myocardial infarction and inflammatory cell infiltration besides increased IL-6 protein expression. On the other hand, RSV treatment alleviated ACP-induced cardiotoxic actions and modulated the expression levels of the inflammation-related genes signaling pathways.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Biochemical and Molecular Toxicology is an international journal that contains original research papers, rapid communications, mini-reviews, and book reviews, all focusing on the molecular mechanisms of action and detoxication of exogenous and endogenous chemicals and toxic agents. The scope includes effects on the organism at all stages of development, on organ systems, tissues, and cells as well as on enzymes, receptors, hormones, and genes. The biochemical and molecular aspects of uptake, transport, storage, excretion, lactivation and detoxication of drugs, agricultural, industrial and environmental chemicals, natural products and food additives are all subjects suitable for publication. Of particular interest are aspects of molecular biology related to biochemical toxicology. These include studies of the expression of genes related to detoxication and activation enzymes, toxicants with modes of action involving effects on nucleic acids, gene expression and protein synthesis, and the toxicity of products derived from biotechnology.
