PG - 173-182 LID - 10.1080/1547691X.2021.2003486 [doi] AB - Trichloroethylene (TCE) hypersensitivity syndrome (THS), called occupational medicamentosa-like dermatitis due to TCE (OMDT) in China, is a fatal occupational disorder caused by TCE exposure. Visceral damage, including kidney injury, is one of the major complications. Necroptosis is a regulated cell death form linked to local inflammatory response. This study aimed to investigate whether renal cell necroptosis was involved in TCE-induced kidney injury. A Balb/c mouse model of TCE sensitization was utilized to study mechanisms of modulation of TCE-induced renal necroptosis. Renal histology (using light and transmission electron microscopy) and renal tubular impairment indexes, including alpha1-microglobulin (alpha1-MG), and beta2-microglobulin (beta2-MG), were evaluated. In addition, tissue expression of necroptosis-related proteins, including tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, TNF receptor 1 (TNFR1), receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3), p-RIK3, mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL), and p-MLKL, were also evaluated. The study here confirmed TCE sensitization caused damage to renal tubules and renal tubular epithelial cell (RTEC) necroptosis. In mice treated with R7050 (a specific TNFalpha antagonist), it was also seen that inhibition of TNFalpha expression could effectively inhibit RTEC necroptosis and improve renal function in the TCE-sensitized mice. Taken together, these results help to define a novel mechanism by which RTEC necroptosis plays a key role in TCE-induced kidney damage.
