Fipronil (FPN), a widely used insecticide, is of concern due to its potential neurotoxicity, hepatotoxicity, and immunotoxicity. Our previous study showed that FPN disturbed the antigen-specific T-cell functionality <i>in vivo</i>. As T-cell lineage commitment and thymopoiesis are closely interconnected with the normal function of the T-cell-mediated immune responses, this study aims to further examine the toxic effects of FPN on thymocyte development. In this study, 4-week-old BALB/c mice received seven doses of FPN (1, 5, 10 mg/kg) by gavage. Thymus size, medulla/cortex ratio, total thymocyte counts, double-positive thymocyte population, and IL-7-positive cells decreased dose-dependently. IL-7 aids the differentiation of early T-cell precursors into mature T cells, and several essential genes contribute to the maturation of T cells in the thymus. <i>Foxn</i>1 ensures that the thymic microenvironment is suitable for the maturation of T-cell precursors. <i>Lyl</i>1 is involved in specifying lymphoid cells and maintaining T-cell development in the thymus. The <i>c-Kit/SCF</i> collaboration fosters a supportive thymic milieu to promote the formation of functional T cells. The expression of <i>IL-</i>7, <i>IL-</i>7<i>R</i>, <i>c-Kit</i>, <i>SCF</i>, <i>Foxn</i>1, and <i>Lyl</i>1 genes in the thymus was significantly diminished in FPN-treated groups with the concordance with the reduction of IL-7 signaling proteins (IL-7, IL-7R, c-KIT, SCF, LYL1, FOXO3A, and GABPA), suggesting that the dysregulation of T-cell lineage-related genes may contribute to the thymic atrophy induced by FPN. In addition, FPN disturbed the functionality of thymocytes with an increase of IL-4 and IFN-γ production and a decrease of IL-2 secretion after T-cell mitogen stimulation <i>ex vivo</i>. Collectively, FPN significantly deregulated genes related to T-cell progenitor differentiation, survival, and expansion, potentially leading to impaired thymopoiesis.</p>","PeriodicalId":31,"journal":{"name":"Chemical Research in Toxicology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11409377/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141981176","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This concern arises due to their potential for contamination, toxicity, carcinogenicity, and mutagenicity and their presence in many active pharmaceutical ingredients, drug products, and other matrices. N-Nitrosamine impurities in humans can lead to severe chemical toxicity effects. These include carcinogenic effects, metabolic disruptions, reproductive harm, liver diseases, obesity, DNA damage, cell death, chromosomal alterations, birth defects, and pregnancy loss. They are particularly known to cause cancer (tumors) in various organs and tissues such as the liver, lungs, nasal cavity, esophagus, pancreas, stomach, urinary bladder, colon, kidneys, and central nervous system. Additionally, N-nitrosamine impurities may contribute to the development of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases and type-2 diabetes. Therefore, it is very important to control or avoid them by enhancing effective analytical methodologies using cutting-edge analytical techniques such as LC-MS, GC-MS, CE-MS, SFC, etc. Moreover, these analytical methods need to be sensitive and selective with suitable precision and accuracy, so that the actual amounts of N-nitrosamine impurities can be detected and quantified appropriately in drugs. Regulatory agencies such as the US FDA, EMA, ICH, WHO, etc. need to focus more on the hazards of N-nitrosamine impurities by providing guidance and regular updates to drug manufacturers and applicants. Similarly, drug manufacturers should be more vigilant to avoid nitrosating agents and secondary amines during the manufacturing processes. Numerous review articles have been published recently by various researchers, focusing on N-nitrosamine impurities found in previously notified products, including sartans, metformin, and ranitidine. These impurities have also been detected in a wide range of other products. Consequently, this review aims to concentrate on products recently reported to contain N-nitrosamine impurities. These products include rifampicin, champix, famotidine, nizatidine, atorvastatin, bumetanide, itraconazole, diovan, enalapril, propranolol, lisinopril, duloxetine, rivaroxaban, pioglitazones, glifizones, cilostazol, and sunitinib.</p>","PeriodicalId":31,"journal":{"name":"Chemical Research in Toxicology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141998881","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}

Since NNAL-N-glucuronidation is dominantly catalyzed by UGT2B10, its representative single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were analyzed among the clinical trial participants.

In summary, our results provide further evidence that kava enhances NNAL urinary detoxification via an increase in both N-glucuronidation and O-glucuronidation.

Berberine has various biological activities, including anti-inflammation, antioxidative stress, and antiferroptosis. Berberine has been shown to inhibit diabetic nephropathy, but whether it involves KLF4 and ferroptosis remains unknown. We established a diabetic nephropathy mice model and administered berberine to the mice. The kidney function, renal structure and fibrosis, expression of KLF4 and DNA methylation enzymes, DNA methylation of the KLF4 promoter, mitochondria structure, and expression of oxidative stress and ferroptosis markers were analyzed. Berberine rescued kidney function and renal structure and prevented renal fibrosis in diabetic nephropathy mice. Berberine suppressed the expression of DNMT1 and DNMT2 and upregulated KLF4 expression by preventing KLF4 promoter methylation. Berberine inhibited the expression of oxidative stress and ferroptosis markers, maintained mitochondria structure, and prevented ferroptosis.

This system interprets images of the probes’ colorimetric response, effectively categorizing different ranges of arsenic concentrations in parts per million (ppm). Our approach offers a real-time, cost-effective, and user-friendly solution for arsenic detection, extending its applicability from scientific laboratories to in-field conditions and even household monitoring.

During the time of disease progression, tumor pathophysiology can be impacted by endogenous factors, like hormonal status, as well as by environmental exposures, such as those related to diet and lifestyle. New lines of evidence point toward a potential role for foodborne endocrine disruptive chemicals in this respect; however, mechanistic understanding remains limited. At the molecular level, crucial steps toward metastasis formation include cell structural changes, alteration of adhesion, and reorganization of cytoskeletal proteins involved in motility. Hence, this study investigates the potential of dietary xenoestrogens to impact selected aspects of breast cancer cell mechanotransduction. Taking the onset of the metastatic cascade as a model, experiments focused on cell-matrix adhesion, single-cell migration, and adaptation of cell morphology. Dietary mycoestrogens alternariol (AOH, 1 μM) and α-zearalenol (α-ZEL, 10 nM), soy isoflavone genistein (GEN, 1 μM), and food packaging plasticizer bisphenol A (BPA, 10 nM) were applied as single compounds or in mixtures. Pursuing the hypothesis that endocrine active molecules could affect cell functions beyond the estrogen receptor-dependent cascade, experiments were performed comparing the MCF-7 cell line to the triple negative breast cancer cells MDA MB-231. Indeed, the four compounds functionally affected the motility and the adhesion of both cell types. These responses were coherent with rearrangements of the actin cytoskeleton and with the modulation of the expression of integrin β1 and cathepsin D. Mechanistically, molecular dynamics simulations confirmed a potential interaction with fragments of the α1 and β1 integrin subunits. In sum, dietary xenoestrogens proved effective in modifying the motility and adhesion of breast cancer cells, as predictive end points for metastatic behavior in vitro. These effects were measurable after short incubation times (1 or 8 h) and contribute to shed novel light on the activity of compounds with hormonal mimicry potential in breast cancer progression.","PeriodicalId":31,"journal":{"name":"Chemical Research in Toxicology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142181681","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}

In some cases, the nucleophilic center is a sulfur or phosphorus atom, while in others, it is an aromatic carbon atom. For carbon-centered nucleophiles, a quantitative mechanistic model based on a combination of Hammett σ⁺ and logP values has been derived.
