In the present study, DIOCTYLTIN (cas 15231-44-4) chloride (DOTC: 100 mg/kg, BW) was orally administered to immature (30-day-old) male rats, and the acute toxic effects were studied. Di- and monooctyltin (its metabolite) accumulations were mainly detected in the liver, and peaked 48 h later. A similar pattern was also found in the kidney, but the levels were low or trace amounts. Significantly low thymus and spleen weights were detected in DOTC-treated animals. Increased apoptotic cell numbers in the thymus and spleen were observed in DOTC-treated animals also. Although the expression of 97 genes involved in apoptosis was studied in the thymus, at least 24 h after treatment, we could not detect clearly different expressions between DOTC- and vehicle-treated animals. The present results suggest that DOTC was selectively immunotoxic. One of the mechanisms for its immunotoxicity would be via its stimulation of immune cell apoptosis.
