Introduction: Cadmium (Cd) is a heavy metal, which affects the important organs, such
as liver, kidney, spleen, lung, and heart. Cadmium mostly accumulated within
the kidneys and impairs it. The mechanisms underlying cadmium nephrotoxicity
are not fully understood. Ceramides play important roles in many cellular processes,
such as differentiation, cell proliferation, and apoptosis. This study was
designed to evaluate the possible protective effects of ARC39 and GW4869 against
Cd-induced renal toxicity by reducing the ceramide.
Methods: LLC-PK-1 cells were cultured DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS, 1%
(v/v) penicillin and streptomycin. To evaluate ceramide level after exposure of
cadmium and SMase inhibitors, LLC-PK1 cells were seeded with 1x106
cells/well into 6-well plates, and treated with Cd (20 μM), Cd+ARC39 (20 and 10
μM, respectively), Cd+GW4869 (20 and 10 μM, respectively) and incubated for 24
h. After collection the samples, 100 uL of cell lysate were extracted by chloroform:methanol
(2:1) mixture. The chloroform phase was dried at a vacuum evaporator and the dry residue was reconstituted in 100 µl MeOH
before injecting into LC-MS/MS system. Ceramides were eluted by C18 column (150
mm × 2 mm × 3 μm; Phenomenex), with gradient
elution condition generated from mobile phase A (10 mM ammonium acetate in water with 0.1% formic acid) and mobile phase B
(10 mM ammonium acetate in ACN:Propanol-2 (4:3; v/v) with 0.1% formic acid). The
mass spectrometer was operated in multiple reaction monitoring positive
ionization mode, monitored the following transitions: m/z 538.2>264.3 for
Cer16, 552.2>264.3 for Cer17, 548.2>264.3 for Cer18, 622.2>264.3 for
Cer22, 650.4>264.3 for Cer24 and 648.4>264.3 for Cer24:1. The
concentration of each ceramide was calculated according to calibration curves
using the peak-area ratio.
Results: Exposure to 20 μM Cd for 24 h induced formation of cellular
ceramides (C16:0, C18:0, C22:0, C24:0, C24:1) the cadmium group compared to untreated
group. Data demonstrate that the long-chain ceramide C24:1 revealed the highest
proportion of total ceramide. Each of ceramide and total ceramide effectively inhibited
by pre-incubation with ARC39 compound at a concentration 10 μM. Total ceramide
levels of GW4869 group (10 μM) were obviously dropped in comparison to the cadmium
group and control groups. On the other hand, the S1P level was not considerably
affected. Moreover, exposure of the cells to ARC39 and GW4869 increased cell
viability within 24 hours of culture.
Conclusion: In conclusion, our results reveal that incubation of LLC-PK-1 cells
with cadmium for 24 h increased the ceramide level and reduced the cell viability
and induced the DNA damage in in vitro experiments. The alteration of ceramide may
be considered as a biomarker of cadmium induced kidney failure and pretreatment
with ARC39 and GW4869 may prevent the Cd-induced damage by inhibition of SMase.
