The aim of the present work was to determine if DOX causes alterations in selected apoptotic proteins and oxidative stress in the lung, in a similar manner to what occurs in the heart. For that purpose, lungs from Wistar-Han rats sub-chronically treated with vehicle or DOX for seven weeks were collected and analyzed concerning several proteins involved in mitochondrial permeabilization and apoptotic pathways, including p53, Bax and Bcl-2 and different oxidative stress markers. After sub-chronic DOX treatment, no alterations in lung proteins involved in mitochondrial membrane permeabilization or caspase 3 and 9-like activities were found. Nevertheless, an increase in malondialdehyde levels and a decrease in the lung concentration of vitamin E were detected, despite no alterations in reduced and oxidized glutathione. The results obtained indicate for the first time that lungs from DOX-treated rats appear to be susceptible to increased lipid peroxidation, which can explain some cases of DOX-induced lung toxicity. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/47552 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.cbi.2010.09.027 | Direitos: | openAccess |
