| Abstract | Vinorelbine tartrate (VNR), a semi-synthetic vinca alkaloid acquired from vinblastine, has extensively been used as an anticancer agent. However, VNR-induced oxidative damage may cause several side effects, such as venous irritation, vascular pain, and necrotizing vasculitis, thereby repressing clinical treatment efficiency. The molecular mechanisms underlying the induced oxidative stress in endothelial cells are still largely unknown. This study was designed to test the hypothesis that VNR induces oxidative injury through modulation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and possible mechanisms were then explored. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were treated with VNR (5–0.625 μM) to produce oxidative damage. The VNR-mediated AMPK, PKC, and NADPH oxidase expressions were investigated by western blotting. Furthermore, several oxidative stress-induced oxidative damage markers as well as pro-inflammatory responses were also investigated. VNR treatment resulted in dephosphorylation of AMPK, which in turn led to an activation of NADPH oxidase by PKC; however, the phenomena were repressed by AICAR (an agonist of AMPK). Furthermore, VNR suppressed Akt/eNOS and enhanced p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), which in turn activated the NF-κB pathway. Furthermore, VNR facilitated several pro-inflammatory events, such as the adherence of monocytic THP-1 cells to HUVECs, pro-inflammatory cytokines release, and overexpression of adhesion molecular. Our results highlight a possible molecular mechanism for VNR-mediated endothelial dysfunction. |

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.
