Özet
Systemic chemotherapy-mediated cell toxicity is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease and atherosclerosis. Life-threatening acute events of the FOLFIRI (irinotecan, folinic acid and 5-fluorouracil) regimen are mainly due to DNA damage induced by antimetabolite and topoisomerase inhibition effects. However, the role of human aortic smooth muscle cells (HaVSMCs) in this process and the mechanisms of oxidative stress, DNA and protein damage and apoptosis have not been investigated. Therefore, the effects of curcumin and quercetin on HaVSMC survival in the generation of molecular and cellular toxicity by FOLFIRI treatment and the involvement of vital cellular signalling pathways were investigated. We analysed both FOLFIRI toxicity and the therapeutic potential of quercetin and curcumin in terms of HaVSMC damage using molecular probe and florescence staining, Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD), qRT-PCR and Western blot assays. Our study presents two preliminary findings: (a) in HaVSMCs, FOLFIRI treatment significantly induces oxidative damage to both DNA and protein, leading to a dramatic increase in caspase-dependent apoptotic death through P53-mediated Caspase3-dependent mitochondrial apoptosis, and results in TNF-alpha/Caspase8-mediated necrotic death, and (b) flavonoids not only regulate the expression of genes encoding antioxidant enzymes and increase DNA damage but also limit programmed and necrotic cell death processes in HaVSMCs. Our results clearly indicate the potential for curcumin and, particularly, quercetin as preventative chemotherapeutic interventions for cardiovascular toxicity induced by the FOLFIRI regime in HaVSMCs.
