ABSTRACT
Restraint stress is known to catalyse the pathogenesis of the variety of chronic inflammatory disorders. The present study was designed to evaluate the effect of repeated short-term stress (RRS) on cellular transduction apart from oxidative burden and early tumour promotional biomarkers induced due to combined exposure of trichloroethylene (TCE) and Ultra-violet radiation (UVB). RRS leads to the increase in the expression of the stress responsive cellular transduction elements NFkB-p65 and activity of iNOS in the epidermal tissues of mice after toxicant exposure. RRS augments the steep depletion of the cellular antioxidant machinery which was evidenced by the marked depletion in GSH (Glutathione and GSH dependant enzymes), superoxide dismutase and catalase activity that were observed at significance level of P < 0.001 with increase in lipid peroxidation, H(2)O(2) and xanthine oxidase activity (P < 0.001) in the stressed animals and down regulation of DT-diaphorase activity (P < 0.001). Since, the induction of NFkB-p65 and inducible nitric oxide synthase expression mediated can lead to the hyperproliferation, we estimated a significant increment (P < 0.001) in the synthesis of polyamines in mice skin evidenced here by the ornithine decarboxylase which is the early marker of tumour promotion and further evaluated PCNA expression. All these findings cues towards the synergising ability of repeated short-term stress in the toxic response of TCE and UVB radiation.
