The IL-6/HO-1/STAT3 signaling pathway is implicated in the amelioration of acetaminophen-induced hepatic toxicity: A neonatal rat model.
The widespread use of acetaminophen (APAP) in children as an over-the-counter treatment can cause acute liver failure through accidental overdose or ingestion. Therefore, the current research sought to investigate the function of hemin in mitigating the acute hepatotoxic effect of APAP in rat offspring. Thirty-two rats were assigned into four groups: control, hemin, APAP, and hemin/APAP groups. Liver enzymes were measured in serum along with oxidative stress indicators, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1beta (IL-1β), total nitrites (NOx), and caspase 3 in liver. Immunoblotting of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), interleukin-6 (IL-6), Janus kinase 2 (Jak2), and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) was carried out. The Bax/Bcl2 mRNA expression ratio was determined. A histological study and an immunohistochemical study of phosphorylated STAT3 were also done. Hemin reduced liver enzymes, MDA, TNF-α, NOx, caspase 3, IL-1β, p-STAT3 expression, p-Jak2 expression, IL-6 expression, and Bax/Bcl2 mRNA expression ratio. In contrast, hemin increased GSH, TAC, and the expression of HO-1, improving the histopathological picture of liver tissue. Thus, hemin could ameliorate APAP-induced hepatic toxicity in rat offspring through anti-oxidant, anti-apoptotic, and anti-inflammatory actions with a possible role for the IL-6/HO-1/Jak2/STAT3 pathway.
期刊介绍:
Human and Experimental Toxicology (HET), an international peer reviewed journal, is dedicated to publishing preclinical and clinical original research papers and in-depth reviews that comprehensively cover studies of functional, biochemical and structural disorders in toxicology. The principal aim of the HET is to publish timely high impact hypothesis driven scholarly work with an international scope. The journal publishes on: Structural, functional, biochemical, and molecular effects of toxic agents; Studies that address mechanisms/modes of toxicity; Safety evaluation of novel chemical, biotechnologically-derived products, and nanomaterials for human health assessment including statistical and mechanism-based approaches; Novel methods or approaches to research on animal and human tissues (medical and veterinary patients) investigating functional, biochemical and structural disorder; in vitro techniques, particularly those supporting alternative methods
