چکیده انگلیسی
Transmembrane proteins of the ABC family contribute to a multiple xenobiotic resistance (MXR) phenotype in cells, driving the extrusion of toxic substances. This phenotype promotes a high degree of protection against xenobiotics. The present study provides a better understanding of the MXR activity in the podal disk cells of Bunodosoma cangicum exposed to copper, and further establishes the relationship between protein activity (measured by accumulation of rhodamine-B) and bioaccumulation of copper in these cells. Sea anemone cells were exposed for 24 h to copper (0, 7.8 and 15.6 μg/L) in presence and absence of MXR blocker (verapamil 50 μM). Results indicate that copper exposure increases intracellular metal content when ABC proteins were blocked, causing an increase in cellular death. The present study also verified the relationship between MXR activity, ATP depletion, and general metabolic activity (by MTT). MXR activity decreased in treatment groups exposed to copper concentrations of 15.6 μg/L and 10 mM energy depleting potassium cyanide. Metabolic activity increased in cells exposed to 7.8 μg Cu/L, but 15.6 μg Cu/L was similar to 0 and 7.8 μg/L. The presence of copper decreased the ABC proteins expression. The present study improves the knowledge of MXR in anemone cells and shows that this activity is closely associated with copper extrusion. Also, the copper exposure is able to modify the metabolic state and to lead to cytotoxicity when cells cannot defend themselves.
