This research investigated dopamine-induced oxidative stress toxicity contributed by iron and the production of dopamine-derived neurotoxins in dopaminergic SH-SYSY cells. Methods After the SH-SYSY cells were pre-incubated with dopamine and Fe^2+ for 24 h, the cell viability, hydroxyl radical, melondialdehyde, cell apoptosis, and catechol isoquinolines were measured by lactate dehydrogenase assay, salicylic acid trapping method, thiobarbuteric acid assay, Hoechst 33258 staining and HPLC-electrochemical detection (HPLC-ECD), respectively. Results (1) Optimal dopamine (150 μmol/L) and Fe^2+ (40 or 80 μmol/L) significantly increased the concentrations of hydroxy radicals and melondialdehyde in SH-SYSY cells. (2) Induction with dopamine alone or dopamine and Fe^2+ (dopamine/Fe^2+) caused cell apoptosis. (3) Compared with untreated cells, the catechol isoquinolines, salsolinol and N-methyl-salsolinol in dopamine/Fe^2+-induced cells were detected in increasing amounts. Conclusion Due to dopamine/Fe^2+-induced oxidative stress similar to the state in the parkinsonian substantia nigra neurons, dopamine and Fe^2+ impaired SH-SYSY cells could be used as the cell oxidative stress model of Parkinson's disease. The catechol isoquinolines detected in cells may be involved in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease as potential neurotoxins.展开更多
