摘要

Ochratoxin A (OTA) and citrinin (CIT) are nephrotoxins found co-occurring in various human/animal food/feed and recognized as a health threat. However, most studies investigate individual effects and neglect their combined nephrotoxic effects in mammals. Previous studies have indicated that organic anion/cation transporters (OATs/OCTs) localized in renal proximal tubules mediate the transport of OTA and CIT. Still, little is known about the in vivo effects of individual/combined OTA and CIT on protein localization/expression of OCTs, physiologically/pharmacologically important renal transporters. Here, we used Western blot and immunofluorescence microscopy to study the effects of subchronic (21-day) exposure to individual/combined OTA (0.125 and 0.250 mg kg(-1) b.w.) and CIT (20 mg kg(-1) b.w.) on protein localization/expression of organic cation transporters (rOct1/Slc22a1 and rOct2/Slc22a2) in kidneys of Wistar rats. Since the antioxidant resveratrol (RSV) has shown measurable protective effects against OTA- and CIT-related oxidative stress toxicity in vitro, we investigated the effects of an OTA + CIT + RSV combination on rOct1/2 localization/expression in the same model. Individual OTA induced a dose-dependent decrease of rOct1 but not rOct2 protein expression, whereas their localization pattern remained unchanged. Individual CIT did not affect the renal rOct1/2 protein localization/expression. Combined OTA + CIT exposure induced a significant decrease of rOct1 protein expression by an OTA250 dose, whereas oral co-administration of OTA + CIT + RSV resulted in a significant decrease of rOct1/2 protein expression. Thus, we revealed an OTA-related selective effect on the rOct1/2 protein expression and a non-specific adverse effect of RSV in the OTA + CIT + RSV combination on the renal organic cation transport system in rat.
