Background: toxoplasma gondii,an obligate intracellular pathogen,has a strong affinity for the nervous system. tgctwh3,a representative chinese 1 toxoplasma strain prevalent in china,has the polymorphic features of the effectors rop16i/iii with type i and gra15ii with type ii toxoplasma strains. the interaction of this atypical strain with host cells remains extremely elusive. methods: using a transwell system,neural stem cells c17.2 were co-cultured with the tachyzoites of tgctwh3 or standard type i rh strain. the apoptosis levels of c17.2 cells and the expression levels of related proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum stress (ers)-mediated pathway were detected by flow cytometry and western blotting. results: the apoptosis level of c17.2 cells co-cultured with tgctwh3 had a significant increase compared to the negative control group; however,the apoptosis level in the tgctwh3 group was significantly lower than that in the rh co-culture group. western blotting analyses reveal that,after the c17.2 cells were co-cultured with tgctwh3 and rh tachyzoites,the expression levels of caspase-12,chop and p-jnk in the cells increased significantly when compared to the control groups. after the pretreatment of z-atad-fmk,an inhibitor of caspase-12,the apoptosis level of the c17.2 cells co-cultured with tgctwh3 or rh tachyzoites had an apparent decline,and correspondingly,the expression levels of those related proteins were notably decreased. conclusions: our findings suggest that tgctwh3 may induce the apoptosis of the c17.2 cells by up-regulation of caspase-12,chop,and p-jnk,which are associated with ers signaling pathways. this work contributes to better understanding the possible mechanism of brain pathology induced by t. gondii chinese 1 isolates prevalent in china,and also reveals the potential value of ers inhibitors to treat such related diseases in the future. © 2015 zhou et al.; licensee biomed central.
