Abstract:
:It is well-documented that lead (Pb) toxicity can affect almost all systems in living organisms. It can induce selective autophagy of mitochondria (mitophagy) by triggering reactive oxygen species production. Emerging evidence has suggested that Pb-induced autophagy can also be activated by the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress pathway. However, the interplay between ER stress and mitophagy remains to be elucidated. In this study, human embryonic kidney HEK293 cells were employed to investigate the role of ER stress in Pb-induced mitophagy. The results showed that the cell viability was decreased and cell damage was induced after exposure to Pb (0, 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 mM) for 24 h in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, the expression of LC3-Ⅱ was significantly increased, and the expression of HSP60 was dramatically decreased after exposure to 1 mM and 2 mM Pb, indicating the induction of mitophagy following Pb exposure. Meanwhile, the expressions of activating transcription factor 6, inositol-requiring protein-1α, CCAAT/enhancer binding protein homologous protein, and glucose-regulated protein 78 were dramatically increased after Pb treatment, signifying the initiation of ER stress. Notably, the mitophagic effect was significantly compromised when ER stress was inhibited by 0.5 mM 4-phenylbutyrate, which was evidenced by lesser decreases in HSP60 expression and level of LC3-Ⅱ, suggesting Pb-induced mitophagy may be activated by the ER stress. Taken together, these findings provide a better understanding of Pb toxicity and suggest that Pb-induced ER stress may play a regulatory role in the upstream of mitophagy.
