Abstract:
:The effect of copper sulfate (CuSO4) on both hepatic oxidative stress and heme oxygenase induction was studied. A strong increase in in vivo rat liver chemiluminescence was observed 1 h after Cu(II) administration. To evaluate liver antioxidant enzymatic defenses, superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase activities were determined. Catalase and glutathione peroxidase were found to be significantly decreased 5 h after CuSO4 injection. In contrast, superoxide dismutase activity was increased. Heme oxygenase activity appeared 5 h after treatment, reaching a maximum value 18 h after CuSO4 administration. This induction was preceded by a decrease in the intrahepatic GSH pool and an increase in the generation of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances, both effects taking place a number of hours before induction of heme oxygenase. Administration of bilirubin, the end product of heme catabolism in mammals, and alpha-tocopherol, a widely employed antioxidant, completely prevented heme oxygenase induction as well as the decrease in hepatic GSH and the increase in chemiluminescence when administered 2 h before CuSO4 treatment. Under the same experimental conditions, beta-carotene showed a moderate preventive effect on both heme oxygenase induction and oxidative stress parameters. These data obtained with Cu(II) treatment are in agreement with our previous reports suggesting a correlation between heme oxygenase induction and oxidative stress.
