Didecyldimethylammonium chloride (DDAC) is a representative dialkyl-quaternary ammonium compound that is used as a disinfectant against several pathogens and is also used in commercial, industrial, and residential settings. We previously investigated toxicity on air way system following single instillation of DDAC to the lungs in mice, and found that DDAC causes pulmonary injury, which is associated with altered antioxidant antimicrobial responses; the inflammatory phase is accompanied or followed by fibrotic response. The present study was conducted to monitor transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) signaling in pulmonary fibrosis induced by DDAC. Mice were intratracheally instilled with DDAC and sacrificed 1, 3, or 7 days after treatment to measure TGF-beta signaling. In order to further evaluate TGF-beta signaling, we treated isolated mouse lung fibroblasts with DDAC. Fibrotic foci were observed in the lungs on day 3, and were widely extended on day 7, with evidence of increased a-smooth muscle actin-positive mesenchymal cells and upregulation of Type I procollagen mRNA. Developing fibrotic foci were likely associated with increased expression of Tgf-beta 1 mRNA, in addition to decreased expression of Bone morphogenetic protein-7 mRNA. In fibrotic lung samples, the expression of phosphorylated SMAD2/3 was considerably higher than that of phosphorylated SMAD1/5. In isolated lung fibroblasts, the mRNA levels of Tgf-beta 1 were specifically increased by DDAC treatment, which prolonged phosphorylation of SMAD2/3. These effects were abolished by treatment with SD208 - a TGF-beta RI kinase inhibitor. The results suggest that DDAC induces pulmonary fibrosis in association with TGF-beta signaling.

Summary: The study found that developmental exposure to lead (Pb) during the young-adult stage suppresses hippocampal neurogenesis and leads to the accumulation of lead in the brain. The study also found that lead exposure induces oxidative stress and neuroinflammation, and activates specific cellular signals. Additionally, lead exposure increases the number of certain cell types, improving neurogenesis.

Phenobarbital, a hepatic metabolic enzyme inducer, inhibits preneoplastic hepatic lesions with expression of selective autophagy receptor p62 and ER-phagy receptor FAM134B in high-fat diet-fed rats through the inhibition of ER stress

Suzuka Uomoto, Keisuke Takesue, Saori Shimizu, Natsuno Maeda, Kanami Oshima, Emika Hara, Mio Kobayashi, Yasunori Takahashi, Makoto Shibutani, Toshinori Yoshida

Summary: We investigated the role of ER-phagy in NAFLD-related hepatocarcinogenesis in HFD-fed and/or PB-treated rats by clustering the expression levels of p62 and FAM134B in preneoplastic hepatic lesions. The results showed that PB administration increased clusters with high levels of p62, while HFD feeding increased clusters with high levels of both p62 and FAM134B. The combination of HFD feeding with PB counteracted each other's effects and the cluster composition resembled that of the control group.

Continuous exposure to alpha-glycosyl isoquercitrin from mid-gestation ameliorates polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid-disrupted hippocampal neurogenesis in rats

Kazumi Takashima, Hiromu Okano, Ryota Ojiro, Qian Tang, Yasunori Takahashi, Shunsuke Ozawa, Xinyu Zou, Mihoko Koyanagi, Robert R. Maronpot, Toshinori Yoshida, Makoto Shibutani

Summary: The antioxidant alpha-glycosyl isoquercitrin (AGIQ) can ameliorate developmental neuropathy induced by polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid (PIC) and promote postnatal hippocampal neurogenesis. PIC treatment decreases the abundance of neural progenitor cells (NPCs) and suppresses the expression of related genes, while AGIQ can improve these effects and enhance the expression of signaling pathways.

Gene expression analysis of antioxidant and DNA methylation on the rat liver after 4-week wood preservative chromated copper arsenate exposure

Naofumi Takahashi, Satoru Yamaguchi, Ryouichi Ohtsuka, Makio Takeda, Toshinori Yoshida, Tadashi Kosaka, Takanori Harada

Summary: Our study investigated the hepatotoxicity of chromated copper arsenate (CCA), a wood preservative, in female rats. We observed hepatocellular hypertrophy, hepatic dysfunction, and oxidative stress in the liver of rats exposed to CCA. Analysis of liver samples revealed changes in cell proliferation, apoptosis, and protein glutathionylation, along with alterations in gene expression related to antioxidants, GST, DNA methylation, and cell metabolism. These findings suggest that CCA-induced hepatotoxicity is mediated through decreased glutathione levels and disruption of multiple molecular pathways in the liver of female rats.
