ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To explore the effect of reactive oxygen species(ROS) and cell cycle in bone marrow cells in benzene-induced aplastic anemia(AA) mouse model. METHODS: Specific pathogens free male CD1 mice were randomly divided into control group and exposure group(n=10, each group). The mice in exposure group were subcutaneously injected with benzene at a dose of 2 mL/kg body weigh diluted 1 ∶1 in corn oil, while the mice in control group were treated with equal volume of corn oil, 3 times a week for a total of 25 times. After exposure, the blood routine and reticulocyte percentage of peripheral blood of mice were examined. The femur histopathology was performed. The levels of benzene and its metabolites hydroquinone, and phenol in blood, liver and bone marrow were tested by solid-phase extraction gas chromatography mass spectrometry. The level of ROS and the changes of cell cycle in bone marrow mononuclear cells(BMMNCs) were determined by flow cytometry. The protein expression of Cyclin D1 and cyclin-dependent kinase 4(CDK4) in BMMNCs was detected by Western blot. RESULTS: Since the 10 th benzene exposure, the body mass of mice in the exposure group was lower than that in the control group at the same time point(P<0.05). After the benzene exposure, all the counts of white blood cell, red blood cell, platelet, and hemoglobin level and reticulocyte percentage in peripheral blood of mice in the exposure group were decreased when compared with the control group(P<0.05). Bone marrow histopathological examination showed that bone marrow hematopoietic cells were decreased and non-hematopoietic cells were increased in the exposure group. In this study, a mouse model of AA induced by benzene was successfully established. The levels of benzene, hydroquinone and phenol in exposure group increased in blood, liver, and bone marrow compared to control group(P<0.05). Furthermore, the level of benzene from high to low were blood, liver and bone marrow, while the levels of hydroquinone and phenol were mainly stored in the blood and bone marrow in exposure group. Compared with the control group, the level of ROS, S phase fraction, and the relative protein expression of Cyclin D1 and CDK4 in BMMNCs increased, while the G1 phase fraction decreased in exposure group(P<0.01). CONCLUSION: The results suggest that benzene and its metabolites induce an increase of ROS level and S phase cell arrest, that play an important role in the pathogenesis and development of benzene-induced AA.
