Ethyl carbamate (EC) is an environmental toxin, commonly present in various fermented foods and beverages, as well as tobacco and polluted ambient air. However, studies on the effects of EC-induced toxicity on the intestines and potential protection methods are limited. In this study, we show that EC could cause severe toxicity in intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) triggering the induction of decreased cell viability, ROS accumulation and glutathione (GSH) depletion in a dose-dependent manner. Based on these results, we established an EC-treated IEC model to screen the potential protective effects of 12 kinds of anthocyanins extracted from blueberry. Interestingly, we found that malvidin-3-O-arabinoside (M3A) significantly reversed the oxidative damage caused by EC exposure by stimulating autophagy flux, which was determined by the LC3-II level and GFP-RFP-LC3 transfection experiment. Enhancement of autophagy was mainly ascribed to the regulation of lysosomes. M3A pretreatment remarkably upregulated LAMP-1 expression, which indicated elevated lysosomal mass. Besides, M3A also successfully restored lysosomal acidity and subsequently strengthened lysosomal functions. Furthermore, M3A stimulated phosphorylation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), a master regulator of autophagy. Furthermore, our study indicated the possibility of EC-caused oxidative damage to the intestines and unveiled the remarkably protective benefits of M3A-induced AMPK-mediated autophagy against this toxicity.
