Antimony trichloride induces DNA damage and apoptosis in mammalian cells.

Abstract:

:Antimony compounds are widely used in various manufacturing and semiconducting industries. Previously, it has been shown that antimony trichloride (SbCl3) elevates sister chromatid exchange (SCE) rates in V79 cells after a 28-h incubation. However, only limited data on its genotoxic effects are available so far. The present results demonstrate that a 4-h exposure to > 50 microM SbCl3 could induce micronuclei (MN) formation in cultured Chinese hamster ovary (CHO-K1) cells, human bronchial epithelial (BES-6) cells and human fibroblasts (HF). The order of sensitivity to SbCl3 determined by Sulforhodamine B (SRB)-staining survival assay is HF > BES-6 cells > CHO-K1 cells, with LD50 values in these cells being approximately 40, 80 and 180 microM, respectively. Apoptosis and DNA fragmentation was not found in cells immediately following 4-h SbCl3 treatment. However, DNA fragmentation was detected in CHO-K1 cells after 4-h SbCl3 treatment and a 16 h or more post incubation in fresh medium by 1.5% agarose gel electrophoresis. The delayed apoptosis was also observed under microscopic examination in HF, BES-6 and CHO-K1 cells after similar treatment protocol. In addition, an increase in calcium accumulation appeared in CHO-K1 cells and HF immediately after a 4-h SbCl3 treatment, or after a 24-h post incubation in fresh medium. The present results provide important genotoxic and cytotoxic information characterizing the cellular changes induced by short-term SbCl3 exposure in rodent and human cells.
