Inhibitors of Lipoxygenase and Cyclooxygenase-2 Attenuate Trimethyltin-Induced Neurotoxicity through Regulating Oxidative Stress and Pro-Inflammatory Cytokines in Human Neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y Cells
Trimethyltin (TMT) is an environmental neurotoxin that mediates dopaminergic neuronal injury in the brain. In this study, we characterized the toxic mechanism and possible protective compounds against TMT-induced neurotoxicity in human dopaminergic neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells. Antioxidants such as melatonin, N-acetylcysteine (NAC), α-tocopherol, and allopurinol alleviated TMT toxicity. Apoptosis induced by TMT was identified by altered expression of cleaved caspase-3, Bax, Bcl-2, and Bcl-xL through Western blot analysis. The iron chelator deferoxamine ameliorated the alteration of apoptosis-related proteins through TMT exposure. TMT also induced delayed ultrastructural necrotic features such as mitochondrial swelling and cytoplasmic membrane rupture; NAC reduced these necrotic injuries. Esculetin, meloxicam, celecoxib, and phenidone decreased TMT toxicity. Elevation of the pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β, TNF-α, and NF-ĸB and reduction of the antioxidant enzymes catalase and glutathione peroxidase-1 (GPx-1) were induced by TMT and ameliorated by inhibitors of LOX and COX-2 enzymes. Both NMDA and non-NMDA antagonists attenuated TMT toxicity. The free calcium ion modulators nimodipine and BAPTA/AM contributed to neuronal survival against TMT toxicity. Inhibitors of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase/protein kinase B/mammalian target of rapamycin pathway, an autophagy regulator, decreased TMT toxicity. These results imply that TMT neurotoxicity is the chief participant in LOX- and COX-2-mediated apoptosis, partly via necrosis and autophagy in SH-SY5Y cells.
