中文摘要The present study investigated the oxidative stress responsive cell signaling in nano-copper-induced hepatic dysfunction and cell death. Exposure to nano-copper (18 nm) dose-dependently (200–600 mg/kg bw) reduced the hepatic index, caused oxidative stress and led to hepatic dysfunction. Nano-copper burden also increased the transcriptional activity of NF-κB, up-regulated the expression of phosphorylated p38, ERK1/2 and caused the reciprocal regulation of Bcl-2 family proteins, disruption of mitochondrial membrane potential, release of cytochrome C, formation of apoptosome and activation of caspase 3. DAPI staining, immunofluorescence study, FACS analysis and histological findings also support this observation. Soluble copper (Cu+2, 110 mg/kg bw)-exposed animals were used as a positive control. Different doses of particulate and soluble forms were used in the study because of different LD50 values. The results suggest that nano-copper induces hepatic dysfunction and cell death via the oxidative stress-dependent signaling cascades and mitochondrial event.
