Antioxidants have proven to protect the erythrocytes from induced OS in vitro. Hydroxybenzoic acid (HBA), a phenolic compound, exhibits free radical scavenging properties. Therefore, this study was conducted to evaluate the role of HBA on erythrocytes subjected to OS. Materials and Methods: Erythrocytes isolated from the blood collected from male Wistar rats were grouped into controls and experimental groups—samples with 2,2′-azobis(2-amidinopropane) dihydrochloride (AAPH), HBA10 (10 mM HBA), HBA30 (30 mM HBA), and samples with combination of AAPH and HBA. The markers of OS and antioxidant status were determined. Statistical analyses were performed using GraphPad Prism 8 Software. Results: Hemoglobin decreased in HBA and AAPH + HBA groups against their respective controls. Conjugate dienes increased in HBA10 against control. Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARSs) increased in AAPH + HBA10 against AAPH. Superoxide dismutase activity elevated in the AAPH + HBA10 group compared with AAPH. Catalase levels increased in HBA10 against control. Conclusion: p-Hydroxybenzoic acid has proved to be beneficial in scavenging the free radicals generated by AAPH as reflected in the results of hemolysis, sulfhydryls, and TBARS and antioxidant enzymes.","PeriodicalId":37448,"journal":{"name":"Applied In Vitro Toxicology","volume":" 6","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135291159","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Caffeine (Cfn) is a purine alkaloid compound and is widely consumed. Until now, a growing body of data has shown that Cfn has anticancer properties and is suitable for use with conventional chemotherapeutics. Thus, there is a need to develop more effective therapeutic approaches. Herein, we assessed the possible synergistic effect of Cfn with cisplatin in prostate cancer cells. Materials and Methods: Cell proliferation was evaluated by WST-1 assay. Autophagy, ubiquitin-proteasome system, unfolded protein response, endoplasmic reticulum stress, apoptosis, epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT), and androgenic signal-related numerous protein levels were analyzed by immunoblotting. Nucleus formation and cell death-related alterations were examined by immunofluorescence microscopy. Colonial growth was evaluated with a colony formation assay. Results: We found that androgen-sensitive prostate adenocarcinoma LNCaP cells were more sensitive to Cfn than metastatic prostate cancer Du145 cells and healthy prostatic cells PNT1A. Cousage of cisplatin and Cfn exhibited an expanded anticancer effect by inducing eukaryotic initiation factor 2α (eIF2α)/activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4)/C/EBP Homologous Protein (CHOP) signaling and negatively regulating autophagic flux. Moreover, Cfn displayed anticancer effects, and cotreatment with cisplatin gradually enhanced these properties. Furthermore, Cfn reduced the EMT and c-Myc expression. Also, androgenic signaling was strongly restricted by the cotreatment of Cfn and cisplatin. Conclusion: Our results suggest that combining the usage of cisplatin with Cfn treatment may offer an advanced therapeutic approach to prostate cancer.","PeriodicalId":37448,"journal":{"name":"Applied In Vitro Toxicology","volume":"67 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135388165","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While they are effective biocides, they have the potential to produce skin irritation and sensitization, which poses a human health hazard. In this project, we evaluated non-animal defined approaches for skin sensitization that can provide point-of-departure estimates for use in quantitative risk assessment for isothiazolinones. The skin sensitization potential of six isothiazolinones was evaluated using three internationally harmonized non-animal test methods. Results from these test methods were then applied to two versions of the Shiseido Artificial Neural Network defined approach. Sensitization hazard or potency predictions were compared to those of the in vivo murine local lymph node assay (LLNA). The non-animal methods produced skin sensitization hazard and potency classifications concordant with those of the LLNA. Potency values generated by the defined approaches had less variability than those from the LLNA, and confidence limits from the defined approaches overlapped those of the LLNA for most substances. The application of in silico models to non-animal skin sensitization data is a promising data integration procedure for defined approaches to support hazard and potency classification and quantitative risk assessment.BiosketchDr. Judy Strickland is a principal predictive toxicologist at Inotiv, Inc., with 22 years of experience in evaluating alternative test methods that reduce, refine, or replace animals in regulatory toxicity test methods.
