Rotenone is a heterocyclic compound widely used as an insecticide, acaricide and piscicide. Its toxicity is mainly caused by the inhibition of mitochondrial respiratory processes and ATP production, resulting in the generation of reactive oxygen species. Reactive oxygen species can interact with DNA, RNA and proteins, leading to cell damage, followed by death. We used the Comet assay, and we analyzed chromosome aberrations, in order to evaluate the genotoxic and clastogenic effects of rotenone on the different phases of the cell cycle. Cultured human lymphocytes were treated with 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 microg/mL rotenone during the G1, G1/S, S (pulses of 1 and 6 h), and G2 phases of the cell cycle. Rotenone induced DNA damage and was clastogenic, but the clastogenicity was detected only with treatments conducted during the G1/S and S phases of the cell cycle. Rotenone also induced endoreduplication and polyploidy in treatments made during G1, while it significantly reduced the mitotic index in all phases of the cell cycle. 相似文献

Rotenone has been shown to induce many parkinsonian features and has been widely used in chemical models of Parkinson’s disease (PD). Its use is closely associated with α-synuclein (α-syn) phosphorylation both in vivo and in vitro. However, the mechanisms whereby rotenone regulates α-syn phosphorylation remain unknown. Protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) has been shown to play an important role in α-syn dephosphorylation. We therefore investigated if rotenone caused α-syn phosphorylation by down-regulation of PP2A activity in mice. Rotenone increased the phosphorylation of α-syn at Ser129, consistent with the inhibition of PP2A activity by increased phosphorylation of tyrosine 307 at the catalytic subunit of PP2A (pTyr307 PP2Ac). We further explored the interactions among rotenone, PP2A, and α-syn in SK-N-SH cells and primary rat cortical neurons. Rotenone inhibited PP2A activity via phosphorylation of PP2Ac at Tyr307. The reduction in PP2A activity and rotenone cytotoxicity were reversed by treatment with the PP2A agonist, C2 ceramide, and the Src kinase inhibitor, SKI606. Immunoprecipitation experiments showed that rotenone induced an increase in calmodulin–Src complex in SK-N-SH cells, thus activating Src kinase, which in turn phosphorylated PP2A at Tyr307 and inhibited its activity. C2 ceramide and SKI606 significantly reversed the rotenone-induced phosphorylation and aggregation of α-syn by increasing PP2A activity. These results demonstrate that rotenone-reduced PP2A activity via Src kinase is involved in the phosphorylation of α-syn. These findings clarify the novel mechanisms whereby rotenone can induce PD. 相似文献

Rotenone, a widely used insecticide, has been shown to inhibit mammalian cell proliferation and to depolymerize cellular microtubules. In the present study, the effects of rotenone on the assembly of microtubules in relation to its ability to inhibit cell proliferation and mitosis were analyzed. We found that rotenone inhibited the proliferation of HeLa and MCF-7 cells with half maximal inhibitory concentrations of 0.2 +/- 0.1 microm and 0.4 +/- 0.1 microm, respectively. At its effective inhibitory concentration range, rotenone depolymerized spindle microtubules of both cell types. However, it had a much stronger effect on the interphase microtubules of MCF-7 cells compared to that of the HeLa cells. Rotenone suppressed the reassembly of microtubules in living HeLa cells, suggesting that it can suppress microtubule growth rates. Furthermore, it reduced the intercentrosomal distance in HeLa cells at its lower effective concentration range and induced multipolar-spindle formation at a relatively higher concentration range. It also increased the level of checkpoint protein BubR1 at the kinetochore region. Rotenone inhibited both the assembly and the GTP hydrolysis rate of microtubules in vitro. It also inhibited the binding of colchicine to tubulin, perturbed the secondary structure of tubulin, and reduced the intrinsic tryptophan fluorescence of tubulin and the extrinsic fluorescence of tubulin-1-anilinonaphthalene-8-sulfonic acid complex, suggesting that it binds to tubulin. A dissociation constant of 3 +/- 0.6 microm was estimated for tubulin-rotenone complex. The data presented suggest that rotenone blocks mitosis and inhibits cell proliferation by perturbing microtubule assembly dynamics. 相似文献

Rotenone induces aneuploidy, polyploidy and endoreduplication in cultured Chinese hamster cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The clastogenic potential of rotenone, an insecticide, was investigated in cultured Chinese hamster cells. Rotenone induced aneuploidy (hypodiploidy and hyperdiploidy), polyploidy, and endoreduplication, but not structural chromosome aberrations. The highest frequency of polyploidy and endoreduplication was 58.8% and 3.0%, respectively, when cells were treated with rotenone at 1.0 microgram/ml for 30 h. 相似文献

Parkinson’s disease is a neurodegenerative disorder that results from the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the central nervous system, primarily in the substantia nigra. The disease causes motor deficiencies, which present as rigidity, tremors and dementia in humans. Rotenone is an insecticide that causes oxidative damage by inhibiting the function of the electron transport chain in mitochondria. It is also used to model Parkinson’s disease in the Drosophila. Flies have an inherent negative geotactic response, which compels them to climb upwards upon being startled. It has been established that rotenone causes early mortality and locomotion defects that disrupt the flies’ ability to climb after they have been tapped downwards. However, the effect of rotenone on spontaneous movement is not well documented. This study outlines two sensitive, reproducible, and high throughput assays to characterize rotenone-induced deficiencies in short-term startle-induced locomotion and long-term spontaneous locomotion in Drosophila. These assays can be conveniently adapted to characterize other Drosophila models of locomotion defects and efficacy of therapeutic agents. 相似文献

Rotenone is a naturally occurring mitochondrial complex I inhibitor with a known association with parkinsonian phenotypes in both human populations and rodent models. Despite these findings, a clear mechanistic link between rotenone exposure and neuronal damage remains to be determined. Here, we report alterations to lipid metabolism in SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells exposed to rotenone. The absolute levels of acetyl-CoA were found to be maintained despite a significant decrease in glucose-derived acetyl-CoA. Furthermore, palmitoyl-CoA levels were maintained, whereas the levels of many of the medium-chain acyl-CoA species were significantly reduced. Additionally, using isotopologue analysis, we found that β-oxidation of fatty acids with varying chain lengths helped maintain acetyl-CoA levels. Rotenone also induced increased glutamine utilization for lipogenesis, in part through reductive carboxylation, as has been found previously in other cell types. Finally, palmitoylcarnitine levels were increased in response to rotenone, indicating an increase in fatty acid import. Taken together, these findings show that alterations to lipid and glutamine metabolism play an important compensatory role in response to complex I inhibition by rotenone. 相似文献

We searched for possible sites of superoxide generation in the complex I segment of the respiratory chain by studying both forward and reverse electron transfer reactions in isolated rat heart mitochondria. Superoxide production was monitored by measuring the release of hydrogen peroxide from mitochondria with a fluorescence spectrophotometer using the Amplex red/horseradish peroxidase system. In the forward electron transfer, a slow superoxide production in the presence of glutamate and malate was enhanced by both rotenone and piericidin A (specific inhibitors at the end of the complex I respiratory chain). Both diphenileneiodonium and ethoxyformic anhydride (inhibitors for respiratory components located upstream of the respiratory chain) inhibited the enhancement by rotenone and piericidin A.In contrast, in reverse electron transfer driven by ATP, both diphenileneiodonium and ethoxyformic anhydride enhanced the superoxide production. Piericidin A also increased superoxide production. Rotenone increased it only in the presence of piericidin A. Our results suggest that the major site of superoxide generation is not flavin, but protein-associated ubisemiquinones which are spin-coupled with iron-sulfer cluster N2. 相似文献

Rotenone decreases the incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma and lowers rates of hepatocellular proliferation. In an effort to delineate mechanisms involved, the in vivo effect of rotenone on liver mitochondrial metabolism, apoptotic machinery as well as elements of the hepatic signal transduction pathways were investigated. Mitochondria from livers of male B6C3F1 mice fed a standard diet containing 600 ppm rotenone for 7 days were uncoupled or inhibited when succinate or glutamate plus malate were used as the substrate, respectively. These livers also showed a significant increase in apoptosis compared with control livers. Furthermore, rotenone increased the expression of c-myc mRNA to 5-fold of control values within 3 days, an effect which was still observed (3-fold) after 7 days. Levels of p53 mRNA were also increased 3-fold after 1 day, but declined to control levels by 7 days. Rotenone also caused a transient, yet marked increase in liver particulate glyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) protein expression, while it did not alter the expression of the cytosolic form of the enzyme. Conversely, mRNA of the proto-oncogene H-ras showed a decline of 35% after 3 days of rotenone treatment, and remained diminished for the duration of the experiment. These data suggest that rotenone may act as an anticancer agent by diminishing mitochondrial bioenergetics which prevents basal hepatocyte proliferation and lowers the threshold for liver cells with DNA damage to undergo apoptosis. 相似文献

Astrocytes are the most abundant glial cells, which provide metabolic support for neurons. Rotenone is a botanical pesticide of natural origin, known to exhibit neurotoxic potential via inhibition of mitochondrial complex-I. This study was carried out to explore the effect of rotenone on C6 cells. The cell line C6 derived from rat glioma cells represents astrocyte-like cell. C6 cells were treated with rotenone (0.1, 1 and 10?μM) for 4?h. The effect of rotenone was studied on cell survival (MTT reduction and PI uptake); free radicals (ROS and RNS) and DNA damage (comet assay and Hoechst staining). The glial cell activation and apoptotic cell death was evaluated by expression of Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and caspase-3 respectively. The treatment with rotenone resulted in decreased cell survival and increased free radical generation. Altered nuclear morphology and DNA damage were evident following rotenone treatment in Hoechst staining and Comet assay. Rotenone elevated expression of GFAP and caspase-3 that indicates glial cell activation and apoptosis, respectively. We further studied the effect of melatonin, an antioxidant, on the observed toxic effects. Co-incubation of antioxidant, melatonin (300?μM), significantly suppressed rotenone induced above-mentioned effects in C6 cells. Inhibitory effects of melatonin suggest that free radicals play a major role in rotenone induced astrocyte activation and cellular toxicity leading to apoptosis of astroglial cells. 相似文献

The effects of KCN, antimycin A, malonate, rotenone, and amytal on the oxidation of malate, succinate, and extramitochondrial reduced nicotinamide adenosine dinucleotide (NADH) by corn mitochondria were studied. Potassium cyanide and antimycin A inhibited the oxidation of all three substrates. Rotenone and amytal inhibited only the oxidation of malate, and malonate inhibited only the oxidation of succinate. Rotenone, amytal, and malonate did not inhibit the oxidation of extramitochondrial NADH. The calcium stimulation of the oxidation of extramitochondrial NADH was prevented by KCN and antimycin A but not by amytal, rotenone, or malonate. It is suggested that corn mitochondria possess a flavoprotein specific for extramitochondrial NADH and that this flavoprotein is sensitive to divalent cations. 相似文献

Rotenone is a widely used pesticide that induces Parkinson’s disease-like symptoms in rats and death of dopaminergic neurons in culture. Although rotenone is a potent inhibitor of complex I of the mitochondrial electron transport chain, it can induce death of dopaminergic neurons independently of complex I inhibition. Here we describe effects of rotenone in the fission yeast, Schizosaccharomyces pombe, which lacks complex I and carries out rotenone-insensitive cellular respiration. We show that rotenone induces generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) as well as fragmentation of mitochondrial networks in treated S. pombe cells. While rotenone is only modestly inhibitory to growth of wild type S. pombe cells, it is strongly inhibitory to growth of mutants lacking the ERK-type MAP kinase, Pmk1, or protein kinase A (PKA). In contrast, cells lacking the p38 MAP kinase, Spc1, exhibit modest resistance to rotenone. Consistent with these findings, we provide evidence that Pmk1 and PKA, but not Spc1, are required for clearance of ROS in rotenone treated S. pombe cells. Our results demonstrate the usefulness of S. pombe for elucidating complex I-independent molecular targets of rotenone as well as mechanisms conferring resistance to the toxin. 相似文献

Vanillin (4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde), a pleasant smelling organic aromatic compound, is widely used as a flavoring additive in food, beverage, cosmetic and drug industries. It is reported to cross the blood brain barrier and also displayed antioxidant and neuroprotective activities. We previously reported the neuroprotective effect of vanillin against rotenone induced in in vitro model of PD. The present experiment was aimed to analyze the neuroprotective effect of vanillin on the motor and non-motor deficits, neurochemical variables, oxidative, anti-oxidative indices and the expression of apoptotic markers against rotenone induced rat model of Parkinson’s disease (PD). Rotenone treatment exhibited motor and non-motor impairments, neurochemical deficits, oxidative stress and apoptosis, whereas oral administration of vanillin attenuated the above-said indices. However further studies are needed to explore the mitochondrial protective and anti-inflammatory properties of vanillin, as these processes play a vital role in the cause and progression of PD. 相似文献

Rotenone inhibition of tubulin self-assembly 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Rotenone effectively inhibits the in vitro formation of microtubules from tubulin containing or lacking microtubule-associated proteins. In both cases a concentration of rotenone equal to that of tubulin present completely blocks assembly. The inhibition can be reversed by the addition of dimethylsulfoxide or by removing rotenone with charcoal. 相似文献

Mechanism for generation of hydrogen peroxide and change of mitochondrial membrane potential during rotenone-induced apoptosis 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13
Rotenone, an inhibitor of NADH dehydrogenase complex, is a naturally occurring insecticide, which is capable of inducing apoptosis. Rotenone-induced apoptosis is considered to contribute to its anticancer effect and the etiology of Parkinson's disease (PD). We demonstrated that rotenone induced internucleosomal DNA fragmentation, DNA ladder formation, in human cultured cells, HL-60 (promyelocytic leukemia) and BJAB cells (B-cell lymphoma). Flow cytometry showed that rotenone induced H2O2 generation, followed by significant changes in the mitochondrial membrane potential (DeltaPsim). Caspase-3 activity increased in HL-60 cells in a time-dependent manner. These apoptotic events were delayed in HP100 cells, an H2O2-resistant clone of HL-60, confirming the involvement of H2O2 in apoptosis. Expression of anti-apoptotic protein, Bcl-2, in BJAB cells drastically inhibited DeltaPsim change and DNA ladder formation but not H2O2 generation, confirming the participation of mitochondrial dysfunction in apoptosis. NAD(P)H oxidase inhibitors prevented H2O2 generation and DNA ladder formation. These results suggest that rotenone induces O2(-)-derived H2O2 generation through inhibition of NADH dehydrogenase complex and/or activation of NAD(P)H oxidase, and H2O2 generation causes the disruption of mitochondrial membrane in rotenone-induced apoptosis. 相似文献

Inhibitors of mitochondrial respiration, phosphorylation inhibitors, and uncoupling agents have been reported to delay or inhibit mitosis in cultured mammalian cells. Although the molecular mechanism by which mitosis is delayed in the presence of most respiratory inhibitors presumably involves lowered ATP production for mitotic requirements, one respiratory inhibitor, rotenone, was determined to arrest mitosis by an unrelated mechanism. Cell cycle kinetics studies, oxygen consumption measurements, and viscosity assays indicate that rotenone arrests cultured mammalian cells in mitosis by inhibiting spindle microtubule assembly by a mechanism analogous with colchicine, Colecemid and related antimitotic drugs. Amytal, which blocks electron transport at the same site as does rotenone, failed to arrest cell progression at mitosis. Rotenone delayed cell progression in all phases of the cell cycle, apparently as a direct result of respiration inhibition. Thus, rotenone appears to exert a dual function on events of the cell cycle. 相似文献

Exposure to oxidative stress causes health problems, including sensory neuron neuropathy and pain. Rotenone is a toxin used
to generate intracellular oxidative stress in neurons. However, the mechanism of toxicity in dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons
has not been characterized. Melastatin-like transient receptor potential 2 (TRPM2) channel activation and inhibition in response
to oxidative stress, ADP-ribose (ADPR), flufenamic acid (FFA) and 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate (2-APB) in DRG neurons are
also not clear. We tested the effects of FFA and 2-APB on ADPR and rotenone-induced TRPM2 cation channel activation in DRG
neurons of rats. DRG neurons were freshly isolated from rats and studied with the conventional whole-cell patch-clamp technique.
Rotenone, FFA and 2-APB were extracellularly added through the patch chamber, and ADPR was applied intracellularly through
the patch pipette. TRPM2 cation currents were consistently induced by ADPR and rotenone. Current densities of the neurons
were higher in the ADPR and rotenone groups than in control. The time courses (gating times) in the neurons were longer in
the rotenone than in the ADPR group. ADPR and rotenone-induced TRPM2 currents were totally blocked by 2-APB and partially
blocked by FFA. In conclusion, TRPM2 channels were constitutively activated by ADPR and rotenone, and 2-APB and FFA induced
an inhibitory effect on TRPM2 cation channel currents in rat DRG neurons. Since oxidative stress is a common feature of neuropathic
pain and diseases of sensory neurons, the present findings have broad application to the etiology of neuropathic pain and
diseases of DRG neurons. 相似文献

Most endemic freshwater fish species of the Cape Floristic Region are listed as threatened, due mainly to the impacts of invasive alien fish species. The piscicide rotenone has been identified as a potential tool to aid the conservation of indigenous species through the removal of invasive fish. Rotenone was used in the Rondegat River, Cederberg, where smallmouth bass Micropterus dolomieu had extirpated the indigenous fish. An initial rotenone treatment in March 2012 was followed by another in March 2013. Due to concerns following the first treatment about possible build-up of rotenone between treatment stations, the second treatment included monitoring of rotenone concentrations during the treatment. Measured concentrations were consistently below the selected treatment concentration of 37.5 µg l?1 and dropped to below the tested effective piscicidal concentration of 12.5 µg l?1 at some sampling points. There was no build-up of rotenone within the treatment zones, but rotenone took longer than expected to clear out of the treatment area. The rotenone was effectively neutralised when the neutralisation station was operational, but was still detectable after neutralisation was terminated. 相似文献

Neurotrophic factors stabilize microtubules and protect against rotenone toxicity on dopaminergic neurons 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Parkinson disease is characterized by the selective degeneration of dopaminergic (DA) neurons in substantia nigra. Long term epidemiological studies have implicated exposure to agricultural pesticides as a significant risk factor. Systemic administration of rotenone, a widely used pesticide, causes selective degeneration of nigral DA neurons and Parkinson disease-like symptoms in rats. Our previous study has shown that the microtubule depolymerizing activity of rotenone plays a critical role in its selective toxicity on DA neurons. Rotenone toxicity is mimicked by the microtubule-depolymerizing drug colchicine and attenuated by the microtubule-stabilizing agent taxol. Here we show that nerve growth factor (NGF) significantly reduced rotenone toxicity on TH(+) neurons in midbrain neuronal cultures. The protective effect of NGF was completely abolished by inhibiting the microtubule-associated protein kinase kinase (MEK) and partially reversed by blocking phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. In addition, NGF decreased colchicine toxicity on TH(+) neurons in a manner dependent on MEK but not phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. The protective effect of NGF against rotenone toxicity was occluded by the microtubule-stabilizing drug taxol. In a MEK-dependent manner, NGF significantly attenuated rotenone- or colchicine-induced microtubule depolymerization and ensuing accumulation of vesicles in the soma and elevation in protein carbonyls. Moreover, other neurotrophic factors such as brain-derived neurotrophic factor and glia cell line-derived neurotrophic factor also reduced rotenone- or colchicine-induced microtubule depolymerization and death of TH(+) through a MEK-dependent mechanism. Thus, our results suggest that neurotrophic factors activate the microtubule-associated protein kinase pathway to stabilize microtubules, and this action significantly attenuates rotenone toxicity on dopaminergic neurons. 相似文献

The present study investigated the protective effect of curcumin and mitochondrial‐targeted curcumin (MTC) in rotenone‐induced cerebellar toxicity in mice. Treatment of rotenone in mice significantly shortened the stride length for both forelimb and hind‐limb and increased fore‐paws and hind‐limb base width. Co‐treatment of curcumin and MTC with rotenone improved the walking pattern. A significant increase in lipid peroxidation, nitric oxide and decreased activity of AChE, reduced glutathione, superoxide dismutase and catalase were observed in rotenone‐treated mice while co‐treatment of curcumin and MTC with rotenone significantly increased AChE activity and protected against rotenone‐induced oxidative damage. Rotenone exposed mice showed irregular, damaged Purkinje cells and perineuronal vacuolation while co‐treatment of curcumin and MTC with rotenone protected against rotenone‐induced cellular damage in these cells. The result exhibits that both curcumin and MTC showed protective effects against rotenone‐induced cerebellar toxicity in mice and MTC is more effective than curcumin. 相似文献
