Abstract

Ferroptosis is a novel form of cell death that involves in the pathophysiological process of diverse brain diseases. However, how arsenite induces ferroptosis in the neuronal cells remains unsolved. In this study, by using in vitro and in vivo models, we demonstrated that arsenite was able to trigger ferroptosis in the neuronal cells. Exposure of arsenite for 6 months at 0.5, 5 and 50 mg/L arsenite via drinking water significantly reduced the number of neurons and caused the pathological changes in the mitochondria of hippocampus. Treatment of arsenite elevated the contents of lipid peroxidation products, disrupted the iron homeostasis, altered the expressions of ferroptosis-related proteins in the hippocampus and PC-12 cells. The results also showed that arsenite significantly decreased the expressions of ferritin and NCOA4, but sharply enhanced the level of autophagy marker LC3B, suggesting the activation of ferritinophagy by arsenite. Co-treatment of arsenite with ferroptosis inhibitor ferrostatin-1, or autophagy inhibitors 3-MA and BafA1, all remarkably attenuated the cytotoxic effects of arsenite. These findings not only present a novel mechanism that arsenite triggers ferroptosis in the neuronal cells via activation of ferritinophagy, but also indicate that regulating ferritinophagy to control iron level may provide a clue for prevention against arsenite neurotoxicity.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
