dc.description.abstract | Benzyl butyl phthalate (BBP) is a widely used plasticizer that poses various potential health hazards. Although BBP has been extensively studied, the direct mechanism underlying its toxicity in male germ cells remains unclear. Therefore, we investigated BBP-mediated male germ cell toxicity in GC-1 spermatogonia (spg), a differentiated mouse male germ cell line. This study investigated the impact of BBP on reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, apoptosis, and autophagy regulation, as well as potential protective measures against BBP-induced toxicity. A marked dose-dependent decrease in GC-1 spg cell proliferation was observed following treatment with BBP at 12.5 μM. Exposure to 50 μM BBP, approximating the IC50 of 53.9 μM, markedly increased cellular ROS generation and instigated apoptosis, as evidenced by augmented protein levels of both intrinsic and extrinsic apoptosis-related markers. An amount of 50 μM BBP induced marked upregulation of autophagy regulator proteins, p38 MAPK, and extracellular signal-regulated kinase and substantially downregulated the phosphorylation of key kinases involved in regulating cell proliferation, including phosphoinositide 3-kinase, protein kinase B, mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), c-Jun N-terminal kinase. The triple combination of N-acetylcysteine, parthenolide, and 3-methyladenine markedly restored cell proliferation, decreased BBP-induced apoptosis and autophagy, and restored mTOR phosphorylation. This study provides new insights into BBP-induced male germ cell toxicity and highlights the therapeutic potential of the triple inhibitors in mitigating BBP toxicity. © 2024 | - |
