| Abstract | Aristolochic acid (AA) has been demonstrated to play a causal role in Chinese herbs nephropathy. However, the detailed mechanism for AA to induce apoptosis of renal tubular cells remains obscure. In this study, we show that AA evokes a rapid rise in the intracellular Ca2+ concentration of renal tubular cells through release of intracellular endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ stores and influx of extracellular Ca2+, which in turn causes endoplasmic reticulum stress and mitochondria stress, resulting in activation of caspases and finally apoptosis. Ca2+ antagonists, including calbindin-D28k (an intracellular Ca2+ buffering protein) and BAPTA-AM (a cell-permeable Ca2+ chelator), are capable of ameliorating endoplasmic reticulum stress and mitochondria stress, and thereby enhance the resistance of the cells to AA. Moreover, we show that overexpression of the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 in combination with BAPTA-AM treatment can provide renal tubular cells with almost full protection against AA-induced cytotoxicity. In conclusion, our results demonstrate an impact of AA to intracellular Ca2+ concentration and its link with AA-induced cytotoxicity. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
