Methods： Rat primary astrocytes were treated with DM （10μmol/L） and tBHQ （40μmol/L）, for 1 and 6 h respectively. Results： Analysis using immunofluorescent confocal microscopy revealed that tBHQ treatment led to a dramatic increase in the level of Nrt2. The ratio of cytoplasmic Nrt2 protein to nuclear Nrt2 protein was markedly reduced in astrocytes by either tBHQ or DM treatment. The level of Nrf2 was reduced by combined tBHQ with DM treatment for 1 h, but treatment the ratio of cytoplasmic Nrf2 protein to nuclear Nrf2 protein was increased compared with that of the tBHQ only. The expression of GCS-HS in astrocytes was not altered by DM or tBHQ or both in astrocytes. Conclusion： These findings demonstrated for the first time that Nrf2 was activated by pesticides and antioxidants in astrocytes, implicating a tote of Nrf2 in response to pesticide neurotoxicity ingla.展开更多
