چکیده مقاله:

     Dacarbazine (DTIC) is a synthetic chemical antitumor agent which is used to treat malignant melanoma and Hodgkin’s disease. DTIC is a prodrug which is converted to an active form undergoing demethylation by liver enzymes. The active form prevents the progress of disease via alkylation of DNA strand. In the structure of this drug, the imidazole ring, a triazen chain and carboxamide group exist. Based on the literature, the ring and carboxamide group do not have a key role in antitumor activity of the drug. On the other hand, imidazole ring has a unique tautomeriza-tion which may participate in the mechanism of action of DTIC and carboxamide group may determine the rich guanine pieces in DNA strand. In order to investigate the mechanistic role of imidazole group and its known tautomerization in DTIC cytotoxicity, derivative of DTIC with a pyridine ring (3-(3,3-dimethyl-1-triazenyl)pyridine, (compound I) instead of imidazole ring was synthesized. In the following, the cellular and molecular mechanism of cytotoxicity induced by DTIC and its pyridine derivative toward the isolated rat hepatocytes were studied and compared. Hepatocyte reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation was significantly increased by both DTIC and compound B before cytotoxicity ensued. In addition, DTIC and compound I induced lysosomal damage and hepatocyte protease activation. Endocytosis inhibitors, lysosomotropic agents or lysosomal protease inhibitors also prevented both DTIC and compound B induced hepatocytes cytotoxicity. Furthermore desferoxamine (a ferric chelator), antioxidants or ROS scavengers (catalase, mannitol or dimethylsulfoxide) prevented both DTIC and compound I cytotoxicity. It is concluded that H2O2 reacts with lysosomal Fe2+ to form hydroxyl radical which (Haber-Weiss reaction) causes lysosomal membrane disruption, proteases and other digestive enzymes release and finally the cell death.

Lysosomal Oxidative Stress Cytotoxicity Induced By Para-phenylenediamine Redox Cycling In Hepatocytes

It has already been reported that muscle necrosis induced by various phenylenediamine derivatives are correlated with their autoxidation rate. Now in a more detailed investigation of the cytotoxic mechanism using a model system of isolated hepatocytes and ring-methylated structural isomer durenediamine (DD) we have shown that under aerobic conditions, phenylenediamine induced cytotoxicity and R...

Venlafaxine-Induced Cytotoxicity Towards Isolated Rat Hepatocytes Involves Oxidative Stress and Mitochondrial/Lysosomal Dysfunction.

Purpose: Depression is a public disorder worldwide. Despite the widespread use of venlafaxine in the treatment of depression, it has been associated with the incidence of toxicities. Hence, the goal of the current investigation was to evaluate the mechanisms of venlafaxine-induced cell death in the model of the freshly isolated rat hepatocytes. Methods: Collagenase-perfused rat hepatocytes were...

Chloroacetonitrile-Induced Cytotoxicity and Oxidative Stress in Isolated Rat Hepatocytes

Chloroacetonitrile (CAN) is a disinfectant by-product of drinking water chlorination. The present work was designed to investigate the cytotoxic effects as well as the oxidative stress induced by CAN in isolated rat hepatocytes. Hepatocytes were exposed to different concentrations of CAN (5–40 μM) in a time-course experiment for up to 2 h. CAN exposure induced a significant decrease in cell via...
