| Abstract | This study was undertaken to evaluate whether chemical hypoxia-induced cell injury is a result of reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, ATP depletion, mitochondrial permeability transition, and an increase in intracellular Ca$^{2+}$, in A172 cells, a human glioma cell line. Chemical hypoxia was induced by incubating cells with antimycin A, an inhibitor of mitochondrial electron transport, in a glucose-free medium. Exposure of cells to chemical hypoxia resulted in cell death, ROS generation, ATP depletion, and mitochondrial permeability transition. The H$_{2}$O$_{2}$ scavenger pyruvate prevented cell death, ROS generation, and mitochondrial permeability transition induced by chemical hypoxia. In contrast, changes mediated by chemical hypoxia were not affected by hydroxyl radical scavengers. Antioxidants did not affect cell death and ATP depletion induced by chemical hypoxia, although they prevented ROS production and mitochondrial permeability transition induced by chemical hypoxia. Chemical hypoxia did not increase lipid peroxidation even when antimycin A was increased to 50 μM, whereas the oxidant t-butylhydroperoxide caused a significant increase in lipid peroxidation, at a concentration that is less effective than chemical hypoxia in inducing cell death. Fructose protected against cell death and mitochondrial permeability transition induced by chemical hypoxia. However, ROS generation and ATP depletion were not prevented by fructose. Chemical hypoxia caused the early increase in intracellular Ca$^{2+}$. The cell death and ROS generation induced by chemical hypoxia were altered by modulation of intracellular Ca$^{2+}$ concentration with ruthenium red, TMB-8, and BAPTA/AM. However, mitochondrial permeability transition was not affected by these compounds. These results indicate that chemical hypoxia causes cell death, which may be, in part, mediated by H$_{2}$O$_{2}$ generation via a lipid peroxidation-independent mechanism and elevated intracellular Ca$^{2+}$. In addition, these data suggest that chemical hypoxia-induced cell death is not associated directly with ATP depletion and mitochondrial permeability transition. |

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.
