摘要

The effects of six arsenic compounds including As+ 3, MMA+ 3, DMA+ 3, As+ 5, MMA+ 5, and DMA+ 5 on the viability of NIH3T3 cells were examined. As+ 3 and MMA+ 3, but not the others, exhibited significant cytotoxic effects in NIH3T3 cells through apoptosis induction. The apoptotic events such as DNA fragmentation and chromosome condensation induced by As+ 3 and MMA+ 3 were prevented by the addition of NAC and CAT, and induction of HO-1 gene expression in accordance with cleavage of the HSP90 protein, and suppression of telomerase activity were observed in NIH3T3 cells under As+ 3 and MMA+ 3 treatments. An increase in the intracellular peroxide level was examined in As+ 3- and MMA+ 3-treated NIH3T3 cells, and As+ 3- and MMA+ 3-induced apoptotic events were blocked by NAC, CAT, and DPI addition. HSP90 inhibitors, GA and RD, significantly attenuated the telomerase activity in NIH3T3 cells with an enhancement of As+ 3- and MMA+ 3-induced cytotoxicity. Suppression of JNKs significantly inhibited As+ 3- and MMA+ 3-induced apoptosis by blocking HSP90 protein cleavage and telomerase reduction in NIH3T3 cells. Furthermore, Hb, SnPP, and dexferosamine showed no effect against As+ 3- and MMA+ 3-induced apoptosis, and overexpression of HO-1 protein or inhibition of HO-1 protein expression did not affect the apoptosis induced by As+ 3 or MMA+ 3. These data provide the first evidence to indicate that apoptosis induced by As+ 3 and MMA+ 3 is mediated by an ROS-dependent degradation of HSP90 protein and reduction of telomerase via JNK activation, and HO-1 induction might not be involved.
