Any compromise in fetal membrane function can predispose a pregnant woman to prelabor rupture of the membranes (pPROM) and subsequently to preterm birth (PTB). Epidemiologic data suggest that lead exposure during pregnancy is one of several risk factors associated with PTB and pPROM. This heavy metal can cross placental and fetal membrane barriers, disrupting homeostasis in these tissues. Autophagy contributes to the maintenance of fetal membrane homeostasis during gestation, and dysfunctional autophagy is associated with pPROM. In this study, we determined the mechanistic impact of lead-induced cellular changes, autophagy, senescence, and inflammation in chorion trophoblast cells (CTCs) and amnion epithelial cells (AECs) of the fetal membranes. Lead exposure in CTCs induced autophagy disfunction (increase in LC3B-II), augmented senescence (increased SA-β-galactosidase activity) and increased the release of inflammation. In AECs, lead exposure did effect autophagy, senescence, nor inflammation. The differential changes observed in CTCs and AECs after exposure to high lead concentrations may promote the weakening of fetal membranes and contribute to preterm rupture.</p>","PeriodicalId":23178,"journal":{"name":"Toxicological Sciences","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142695810","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our findings demonstrate that LC3B-regulated autophagy mitigates ZnONPs-induced epithelial cell dysfunction and acute lung injury. In the absence of LC3B, oxidative stress, inflammation, and intracellular zinc accumulation are exacerbated, resulting in mitochondrial dysfunction and epithelial cell death. In vitro, LC3B knockdown disrupted zinc ion transporter expression and impaired mitophagic flux in BEAS-2B cells. Treatment with zinc ion chelators alleviated these toxic effects, confirming that free zinc ions play a critical role in driving ZnONPs toxicity.

Thus, we proposed glutamate dehydrogenase (GLDH) as a liver-specific alternative to serum ALT and AST. In fact, our exploratory studies showed that GLDH has comparable performance to ALT for detecting hepatocyte injury without interference from concomitant muscle injury. Here, we report the results of studies confirming the reference intervals in a healthy human population and sensitivity and specificity of GLDH for detection of hepatocyte injury in human subjects. In human subjects, we could not perform liver biopsies due to ethical reasons, we also confirmed the relationship of GLDH and histopathologic lesions using 32 model toxicants in rats. Furthermore, we have shown that injury to tissues that are known to express appreciable levels of GLDH does not affect serum GLDH measurements, indicating excellent liver specificity of serum GLDH. Finally, we observed faster elimination of GLDH than ALT in humans, indicating that decreasing GLDH values could be considered an early sign of recovery. This study provides comprehensive evidence of excellent sensitivity and liver specificity of GLDH for diagnosis of hepatocellular injury, including evaluation of reference intervals that is essential for interpretation of serum GLDH in human subjects.</p>","PeriodicalId":23178,"journal":{"name":"Toxicological Sciences","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142591369","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While conventional toxicology tests rely on measuring apical changes in vertebrate models, there is increasing interest in the use of molecular information from animal and in vitro studies to inform safety assessment. One promising and pragmatic application of molecular information involves the derivation of transcriptomic points of departure (tPODs). Transcriptomic analyses provide a snapshot of global molecular changes that reflect cellular responses to stressors and progression toward disease. A tPOD identifies the dose level below which a concerted change in gene expression is not expected in a biological system in response to a chemical. A common approach to derive such a tPOD consists of modeling the dose-response behavior for each gene independently and then aggregating the gene-level data into a single tPOD. While different implementations of this approach are possible, as discussed in this manuscript, research strongly supports the overall idea that reference doses produced using tPODs are health protective. An advantage of this approach is that tPODs can be generated in shorter term studies (e.g., days) compared to apical endpoints from conventional tests (e.g., 90-day sub-chronic rodent tests). Moreover, research strongly supports the idea that reference doses produced using tPODs are health protective. Given the potential application of tPODs in regulatory toxicology testing, rigorous and reproducible wet and dry laboratory methodologies for their derivation are required. This review summarizes the current state of the science regarding the study design and bioinformatics workflows for tPOD derivation. We identify standards of practice and sources of variability in tPOD generation, data gaps, and areas of uncertainty.

The purpose of the present study was to further evaluate effects of an extended 31-day oral exposure using a male pubertal rat study (15 to 500 mg/kg). Oxyfluorfen delayed puberty at all doses (1.3 -3.5 days) suppressing ventral prostate at 62.5 mg/kg and above and seminal vesicle weights at 31.25 mg/kg and above with no effect on testosterone or luteinizing hormone. Serum T4 and T3 were suppressed by all doses up to 80%, with a linear increase in serum TSH. Based on delayed puberty without changes in testosterone, we hypothesized that oxyfluorfen interferes with androgen receptor (AR) function. Results from our Hershberger study, with oxyfluorfen (62.5 and 125 mg/kg) co-treated with testosterone proprionate (TP , 1 mg/kg) for 10 days showed 3 of 5 of the androgenic tissue weights were suppressed compared to TP alone indicating AR antagonism.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of Pb exposure on oligodendrogenesis in SVZ and myelination in the corpus callosum. Adult female mice were used for a disproportionately higher prevalence of multiple sclerosis in females. Acute Pb exposure (one ip-injection of 27 mg Pb/kg as PbAc2 24 hr before sampling) caused mild Pb accumulation in the corpus callosum. Ex vivo assay using isolated SVZ tissues collected from acute Pb-exposed brains showed a diminished oligodendrogenesis in SVZ-derived neurospheres compared with controls.

Mechanistic investigations indicated decreased Rictor in SVZ OPCs, defective self-defense pathways, and reactive gliosis in the corpus callosum.
