Syringic acid alleviates cadmium-induced neurotoxicity in rats by modulating cellular signaling pathways
Cadmium (Cd) is a metal found widely in nature that negatively affects brain health by affecting the DNA repair mechanisms of the cell through the effect it creates on various reactive oxygen species in the body. Antioxidants provide the potential to reduce the neurotoxic effects of cadmium. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the protective properties of syringic acid (SA) in cadmium-induced neurotoxicity. Fifty male Sprague Dawley rats were used in the study. The rats were divided into 5 groups: Control, SA100, Cd, SA50 + Cd and SA100 + Cd. Cd (6.5 mg/kg) was administered intraperitoneally, and SA (50–100 mg/kg) intragastrically for seven days. Our results showed that SA significantly mitigated Cd-induced brain damage. The up-regulation of MDA and down-regulation of GSH, SOD, and CAT in brain tissues induced by Cd was significantly reversed by SA treatment. Additionally, the decreased expression of Nrf2/HO-1/SIRT1, impaired by ROS induced by Cd, was enhanced by SA. While Cd caused inflammation by triggering proinflammatory cytokines such as IL-1β and TNF-α via TLR4/NF-κB and suppressing IL-10, SA reduced inflammation in the tissue. This study demonstrated that SA treatment significantly reversed Beclin-1 and LC3A/B expression. Finally, it was revealed that SA treatment inhibited Cd-induced apoptosis by decreasing Bax, Caspase3 levels, and increasing Bcl2 levels. Collectively, our data revealed that SA exerts its neuroprotective effects by regulating various Cd-induced cellular signaling pathways in rat brains.
期刊介绍:
International Immunopharmacology is the primary vehicle for the publication of original research papers pertinent to the overlapping areas of immunology, pharmacology, cytokine biology, immunotherapy, immunopathology and immunotoxicology. Review articles that encompass these subjects are also welcome.
The subject material appropriate for submission includes:
• Clinical studies employing immunotherapy of any type including the use of: bacterial and chemical agents; thymic hormones, interferon, lymphokines, etc., in transplantation and diseases such as cancer, immunodeficiency, chronic infection and allergic, inflammatory or autoimmune disorders.
• Studies on the mechanisms of action of these agents for specific parameters of immune competence as well as the overall clinical state.
• Pre-clinical animal studies and in vitro studies on mechanisms of action with immunopotentiators, immunomodulators, immunoadjuvants and other pharmacological agents active on cells participating in immune or allergic responses.
• Pharmacological compounds, microbial products and toxicological agents that affect the lymphoid system, and their mechanisms of action.
• Agents that activate genes or modify transcription and translation within the immune response.
• Substances activated, generated, or released through immunologic or related pathways that are pharmacologically active.
• Production, function and regulation of cytokines and their receptors.
• Classical pharmacological studies on the effects of chemokines and bioactive factors released during immunological reactions.
