Abstract
The aims of this study were to explore the effect of i on the apoptosis of rat hepatocytes induced by cadmium.Rat hepatocytes were isolated by a two-step perfusion technique.After 24 h planting,hepatocytes were treated with cadmium in the presence or absence of Bapta-AM.Cell viability was evaluated with a colorimetric using MTT level.Cell morphology and apoptosis were photographed under inverted and fluorescence microscope.i,ROS generation and ΔΨm collapse were evaluated with flow cytometry.The results showed sharp deformation,necrosis and apoptosis in hepatocytes with the dose of Cd increased and time prolonged.Cd induced i increased,ΔΨm collapse and ROS generation(P0.01).Bapta-AM effectively inhibited Cd-induced cytotoxicity(P0.05 or P0.01).It was showed that cadmium induced apoptosis in rat hepatocytes by calcium overloading.
