%X Triphenyltin (TPT) widely exists as environmental pollutant, but its toxicity towards nerve cells and the related mechanism re-main unclear. In this research, SHSY-5Y cells were exposed to TPT, and the cellular proteasome activity, Iκb proteins, Bax and κ-synuclein levels were investigated. The results show that TPT can inhibit the cellular proteasome activity, and result in the ac-cumulation of ubiquitinized proteins. TPT exposure can change the protein levels of IκB, Bax, and α-synuclein, affect NFκB path-way, activate the process of cell death, and induce α-synuclein aggregation. Our results indicate that TPT exposure can lead to neuotoxzcity.
