This popularity is at least partially attributable to the availability of 1000s of distinctly flavored e-liquids. At present, a large number of studies have evaluated the potential negative effects of e-cig use in relation to pulmonary disease. These studies have demonstrated that vaping can lead to immune activation and cell death but typically include only epithelial cell line studies. At present, significantly less is known about the effects of vaped e-liquids on the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral nervous system (PNS). To investigate this gap, we utilized the human macrophage cell lines KG-1 (PNS-resident macrophages) and DBTRG-05MG (CNS-resident macrophages) and examined their exposure to vaped e-liquids. To carry out these investigations, measurements of: cell viability, expression of inflammatory cytokines, phagocytosis and reactive oxygen species (ROS) were employed. Our findings illustrate that when exposed to e-liquid, and especially flavored e-liquids, both peripheral and central macrophage cell lines decrease in cell viability, showcase an upregulated level of expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, a diminished level of phagocytic activity and an overall increased level of reactive oxidative species. Thus, our study further indicates that the use of the e-cig can cause phenotype and immune disruptions within both the CNS and PNS.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54423,"journal":{"name":"Toxicology in Vitro","volume":"104 ","pages":"Article 106013"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143080838","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Neural stem cells (NSCs) possess the capacity for self-renewal and can generate various cell types within the brain, playing fundamental roles in brain development and regeneration. This study investigated the impact of TCDD on the proliferation of mouse NSCs, specifically focusing on the C17.2 cell line. The results demonstrated that TCDD inhibited the proliferation of C17.2 cells in a dose-dependent manner. Even low doses of TCDD (5 nM) significantly reduced C17.2 cell proliferation. Regarding the molecular mechanisms, it was found that TCDD induced the degradation of β-catenin, a key regulator of cell proliferation, through the upregulation of the E3 ubiquitin ligase, casitas B-lineage lymphoma (c-Cbl), which was dependent on the aryl-hydrocarbon Receptor (AhR). Furthermore, knockdown of c-Cbl alleviated the TCDD-induced inhibition of C17.2 proliferation and of the reduction of β-catenin expression. Our research provides foundational data to understand the mechanism of TCDD-induced neurotoxicity through the inhibition of NSCs proliferation, and suggests that the c-cbl/β-catenin pathway may serve as a potential therapeutic target for countering the neurotoxicants of TCDD.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54423,"journal":{"name":"Toxicology in Vitro","volume":"104 ","pages":"Article 106014"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143069767","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
