Pharmacotherapeutic potential of malvidin to cure imidacloprid induced hepatotoxicity via regulating PI3K/AKT, Nrf-2/Keap-1 and NF-κB pathway
Imidacloprid (IMI) is one of the top-notch insecticides that adversely affects the body organs including the liver. Malvidin (MAL) is a natural flavonoid which exhibits a wide range of pharmacological properties. This research was designed to evaluate the protective ability of MAL to counteract IMI instigated liver toxicity in rats. Thirty-two rats were divided into four groups including control, IMI (5mg/kg), IMI (5mg/kg) + MAL (10mg/kg) and MAL (10mg/kg) alone treated group. The recommended dosages were administrated through oral gavage for 4 weeks. It was revealed that IMI intoxication disrupted the PI3K/AKT and Nrf-2/Keap-1 pathway. Furthermore, the activities of catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), superoxide dismutase (SOD), heme-oxygenase-1 (OH-1) and glutathione reductase (GSR) were reduced while upregulating reactive oxygen species (ROS) and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels after IMI treatment. Moreover, IMI poisoning increased the levels of ALT (Alanine aminotransferase), AST (Aspartate transaminase), and ALP (Alkaline phosphatase) while reducing the levels of total proteins and albumin in hepatic tissues of rats. Besides, IMI administration escalated the expressions of Bcl-2-associated protein x (Bax) and cysteine–aspartic acid protease-3 (Caspase-3) while downregulating the expressions of B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2). Similarly, IMI intoxication, increased the levels of Interleukin-6 (IL-6), Nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB), Interleukin-1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and the activity of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2). Furthermore, IMI disrupted the normal architecture of hepatic tissues. However, MAL treatment remarkably protected the liver tissues via regulating abovementioned disruptions.
期刊介绍:
Food and Chemical Toxicology (FCT), an internationally renowned journal, that publishes original research articles and reviews on toxic effects, in animals and humans, of natural or synthetic chemicals occurring in the human environment with particular emphasis on food, drugs, and chemicals, including agricultural and industrial safety, and consumer product safety. Areas such as safety evaluation of novel foods and ingredients, biotechnologically-derived products, and nanomaterials are included in the scope of the journal. FCT also encourages submission of papers on inter-relationships between nutrition and toxicology and on in vitro techniques, particularly those fostering the 3 Rs.
The principal aim of the journal is to publish high impact, scholarly work and to serve as a multidisciplinary forum for research in toxicology. Papers submitted will be judged on the basis of scientific originality and contribution to the field, quality and subject matter. Studies should address at least one of the following:
-Adverse physiological/biochemical, or pathological changes induced by specific defined substances
-New techniques for assessing potential toxicity, including molecular biology
-Mechanisms underlying toxic phenomena
-Toxicological examinations of specific chemicals or consumer products, both those showing adverse effects and those demonstrating safety, that meet current standards of scientific acceptability.
Authors must clearly and briefly identify what novel toxic effect (s) or toxic mechanism (s) of the chemical are being reported and what their significance is in the abstract. Furthermore, sufficient doses should be included in order to provide information on NOAEL/LOAEL values.
