Huang Y, Xu L, Zheng J, Wu P, Zhang Y, Qiu L. Identification and characterization of both cis- and trans-regulators mediating fenvalerate-induced expression of CYP6B7 in Helicoverpa armigera. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 258:128995. [PMID: 38159702 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.128995] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/08/2023] [Revised: 12/08/2023] [Accepted: 12/21/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024]
Abstract
As we known, inducibility is an important feature of P450 genes. Previous studies indicated that CYP6B7 could be induced and involved in fenvalerate detoxification in Helicoverpa armigera. However, the regulatory mechanism of CYP6B7 induced by fenvalerate is still unclear. In this study, CYP6B7 promoter of H. armigera was cloned and the cis-acting element of fenvalerate was identified to be located between -84 and - 55 bp of CYP6B7 promoter. Subsequently, 33 candidate transcription factors (CYP6B7-fenvalerate association proteins, CAPs) that may bind to the cis-acting element were screened and verified by yeast one-hybrid. Among them, the expression levels of several CAPs were significantly induced by fenvalerate. Knockdown of juvenile hormone-binding protein-like (JHBP), RNA polymerase II-associated protein 3 (RPAP3), fatty acid synthase-like (FAS) and peptidoglycan recognition protein LB-like (PGRP) resulted in significant expression inhibition of CYP6B7, and increased sensitivity of H. armigera to fenvalerate. Co-transfection of reporter gene p (-84/-55) with pFast-CAP showed that JHBP, RPAP3 and PGRP could significantly increase the activity of CYP6B7 promoter. These results suggested that trans-acting factors JHBP, RPAP3 and PGRP may bind with cis-acting elements to regulate the expression of CYP6B7 induced by fenvalerate, and play an important role in the detoxification of H. armigera to fenvalerate.

TOXICS 2023; 11:768. [PMID: 37755778 PMCID: PMC10535342 DOI: 10.3390/toxics11090768] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2023] [Revised: 09/04/2023] [Accepted: 09/04/2023] [Indexed: 09/28/2023]
Abstract
Deoxynivalenol (DON) is an important virulence factor of the Fusarium head blight of wheat and threatens the health of humans. The effect of fungicides on DON production after stressing wheat to produce H2O2 and the effect of nontarget pesticides on DON accumulation are largely unknown. Five pesticides were selected to explore the effect of pesticide-induced oxidative stress on DON production in vitro and in vivo. Epoxiconazole and hexaconazole significantly induced an increase in H2O2 in vitro, and H2O2 further stimulated the production of DON and the expression of the Tri5 gene. Imidacloprid, isoproturon, and mesosulfuron-methyl had no direct effect in vitro. All pesticides activated the activities of superoxide dismutase, catalase, and peroxidase in wheat and caused the excessive accumulation of H2O2. However, excessive H2O2 did not stimulate the accumulation of DON. Imidacloprid indirectly stimulated the production of DON in vivo, which may be due to its impact on the secondary metabolism of wheat. In brief, pesticide-induced H2O2 in vitro is an important factor in stimulating DON production, but the stressed physiological H2O2 in wheat is not sufficient to stimulate DON production. The bioaccumulation results indicated that imidacloprid and epoxiconazole increase the risk of DON contamination, especially under field spraying conditions.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 proteins (CYPs) in insects can encode various detoxification enzymes and catabolize heterologous substances, conferring tolerance to insecticides. This study describes the identification of a P450 gene (CYP6BQ8) from Tribolium castaneum (Herbst) and investigation of its spatiotemporal expression profile and potential role in the detoxification of terpinen-4-ol, a component of plant essential oils. The developmental expression profile showed that TcCYP6BQ8 expression was relatively higher in early- and late-larval stages of T. castaneum compared with other developmental stages. Tissue expression profiles showed that TcCYP6BQ8 was mainly expressed in the head and integument of both larvae and adults. The expression profiling of TcCYP6BQ8 in developmental stages and tissues is closely related to the detoxification of heterologous substances. TcCYP6BQ8 expression was significantly induced after exposure to terpinen-4-ol, and RNA interference against TcCYP6BQ8 increased terpinen-4-ol-induced larval mortality from 47.78 to 66.67%. This indicates that TcCYP6BQ8 may be involved in T. castaneum's metabolism of terpinen-4-ol. Correlation investigation between the CYP6BQ8 gene and terpinen-4-ol resistance in T. castaneum revealed that the TcCYP6BQ8 gene was one of the factors behind T. castaneum's resistance to terpinen-4-ol. This discovery may provide a new theoretical foundation for future regulation of T. castaneum.

Abstract
Micromelalopha troglodyta (Graeser) (Lepidoptera: Notodontidae) is a notorious pest of poplar. Coevolution with poplars rich in plant secondary metabolites prompts M. troglodyta to expand effective detoxification mechanisms against toxic plant secondary metabolites. Although glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) play an important role in xenobiotic detoxification in M. troglodyta, it is unclear how GSTs act in response to toxic secondary metabolites in poplar. In this study, five GST gene core promoters were accurately identified by a 5' loss luciferase reporter assay, and the core promoters were significantly induced by two plant secondary metabolites in vitro. Two transcription factors, cap 'n' collar C (CncC) and aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator (ARNT), were cloned in M. troglodyta. MtCncC and MtARNT clustered well with other insect CncCs and ARNTs, respectively. In addition, MtCncC and MtARNT could bind the MtGSTt1 promoter and strongly improve transcriptional activity, respectively. However, MtCncC and MtARNT had no regulatory function on the MtGSTz1 promoter. Our findings revealed the molecular mechanisms of the transcription factors MtCncC and MtARNT in regulating the GST genes of M. troglodyta. These results provide useful information for the control of M. troglodyta.

Abstract
Bark beetles rely on detoxifying enzymes to resist the defensive oleoresin terpenes of the host tree. Insect cytochrome P450 (CYPs) plays a key role in the detoxification of plant allelochemicals and pesticides. CYP6 family is unique to Insecta, and its biochemical function is basically related to catabolize heterologous substances. In this study, two Dendroctonus armandi CYP6 genes, CYP6DF1 and CYP6DJ2, were characterized. Spatiotemporal expression profiling revealed that CYP6DF1 and CYP6DJ2 expressions were higher in larvae and adult stages of D. armandi than in egg and pupae stages, and that two genes predominantly expressed in brain, midgut, fat body, or Malpighian tubules. Moreover, CYP6DF1 and CYP6DJ2 expressions were significantly induced after exposure to (+)-α-pinene. Importantly, silencing CYP6DF1 and CYP6DJ2 significantly inhibited the CYP activity and increased the mortality in the adults fumigated with (+)-α-pinene. Additionally, piperonyl butoxide exposure to adults also increase the sensitivity after treatment with (+)-α-pinene, which led to a significant reduction of the CYP activity, resulting a significant increase in adult mortality. These results suggest that the CYP6 family plays a key role in determining the susceptibility of D. armandi to (+)-α-pinene, which may have implications for the development of novel therapeutics to control this important pest.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases play important roles in insect metabolism and detoxification of toxic plant substances. However, the function of CYP6 family genes in degrading plant toxicants in Aphis gossypii has yet to be elucidated. In this study, AgoCYP6CY19, an A. gossypii CYP gene that differentially expresses in cotton- and cucumber-specialized aphids, was characterized. Spatiotemporal expression profiling revealed that AgoCYP6CY19 expression was higher in second instar nymph and 7 day old adults than in other developmental stages. Although the expression of AgoCYP6CY19 was significantly higher in cotton-specialized aphids, AgoCYP6CY19 silencing significantly increased larval and adult mortality and reduced total fecundity in both cotton- and cucumber-specialized aphids. What is more, the expression of AgoCYP6CY19 was significantly induced after the cotton-specialized and cucumber-specialized aphids fed on epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) and cucurbitacin B (CucB), respectively. These findings demonstrate that AgoCYP6CY19 plays a pivotal role in toxic plant substance detoxification and metabolism. Functional knowledge about plant toxicity tolerance genes in this major pest can provide new insights into insect detoxification of toxic plant substances and insecticides and offer new targets for agricultural pest control strategies.

Abstract
Bark beetles rely on detoxifying enzymes to resist the defensive terpenoids of the host tree. Insect cytochrome P450 (CYPs) plays a key role in the detoxification of pesticides and plant allelochemicals. CYP6 family is unique to Insecta, and its biochemical function is basically related to the metabolism of exogenous substances. In this study, we sequenced and characterized the full-length cDNAs of two CYP6 genes from Chinese white pine beetle, Dendroctonus armandi. Spatiotemporal expression profiling revealed that the expression of CYP6CR2 and CYP6DE5 was higher in larval and adult stages of D. armandi than that in other developmental stages, and that two genes predominantly expressed in brain, midgut, fat body, Malpighian tubules or hemolymph. The expression of CYP6CR2 and CYP6DE5 was significantly induced after feeding on the phloem of Pinus armandii and exposure to six stimuli [(±)- α -pinene, (-)-α-pinene, (-)-β-pinene, (+)-3-carene, (±)-limonene and turpentine]. Importantly, silencing CYP6CR2 and CYP6DE5 separately could increase the sensitivity, led to a significant reduction of the activity of P450, resulting a significant increase in adult mortality after treatment with terpenoids. The comprehensive results of this study showed that in the process of host selection and colonization, the functions of CYPs were mainly to hydrolyze the chemical defense of the host and degrade odor molecules. These findings may help to develop new treatments to control this important pest.

Abstract
Bark beetles mainly rely on detoxification enzymes to resist the host tree's defense against oleoresin terpenes. Cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYPs) play an important role in the detoxification of plant allelochemicals and pesticides in insect. One P450 gene (DaCYP4BQ1) is associated with the response of (+)-α-pinene in Dendroctonus armandi. However, the regulatory mechanism of this P450 gene response to (+)-α-pinene is still unknown. In this study, spatiotemporal expression profiling indicated that CYP4BQ1 was highly expressed in adult and larval stages of D. armandi, and it was predominantly expressed in fat body, midgut, and Malpighian tubules of adults. Moreover, the expression of CYP4BQ1 significantly increased after exposure to (+)-α-pinene, and depletion of it decreased the tolerance of adults to (+)-α-pinene. In addition, (+)-α-pinene treatment induced the expression of the transcription factors cap 'n' collar isoform C (CncC) and its binding factor muscle aponeurosis fibromatosis (Maf), elevated the level of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), and increased the activities of antioxidant enzymes. Silencing CncC suppressed CYP4BQ1 expression and enhanced the susceptibility of beetles to (+)-α-pinene. Similarly, application of the reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenger N-acetylcysteine reduced the production and accumulation of H2O2, suppressed the expression of CncC, Maf, and CYP4BQ1 and led to decreased tolerance of adults to (+)-α-pinene. In contrast, ingestion of the CncC agonist curcumin elevated CYP4BQ1 expression and enhanced (+)-α-pinene tolerance. The results demonstrate that, in D. armandi, (+)-α-pinene induces CYP4BQ1 via activation of the ROS/CncC signaling pathway.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450-mediated detoxification plays an important role in the development of insecticide resistance. Previous studies have shown that cytochrome P450 CYP6B7 was induced by fenvalerate and involved in fenvalerate detoxification in Helicoverpa armigera. However, the transcriptional regulation of CYP6B7 induced by fenvalerate remains unclear. Here, a series of progressive 5' deletions of CYP6B7 promoter reporter genes were constructed, and the relative luciferase activities were detected. The results revealed that the relative luciferase activity of plasmid p (-655/-1) was significantly induced by fenvalerate. Further deletion of the region between -655 and -486 bp showed that the highest luciferase activity induced by fenvalerate was observed in plasmid p (-528/-1), while p (-485/-1) had the lowest fenvalerate-induced luciferase activity. Moreover, internal deletion and mutation in the region between -508 and -486 bp resulted in a significant reduction in fenvalerate-induced CYP6B7 promoter activity, suggesting that the cis-acting element responsible for fenvalerate in the CYP6B7 promoter was located between -508 and -486 bp. These results promote an understanding of the expression regulation mechanism of P450 genes that conferring resistance to insecticides.

Abstract
Tribolium castaneum is an agricultural and stored pest found throughout the world. The cytochrome P450 genes of T. castaneum can encode various detoxification enzymes and catabolize heterologous substances, conferring tolerance to insecticides. Herein, we describe the identification of a P450 gene (CYP9Z6) from T. castaneum and investigated its expression profile and potential role in the detoxification of terpinen-4-ol. TcCYP9Z6 expression was significantly induced after exposure to terpinen-4-ol, and RNA-mediated silencing of TcCYP9Z6 increased terpinen-4-ol-induced larval mortality from 47.75% to 63.92%, showing that TcCYP9Z6 is closely related to the detoxification of terpinen-4-ol. The developmental expression profile revealed that TcCYP9Z6 was mainly expressed in late adults and late larvae. Tissue expression profiling revealed that the highest TcCYP9Z6 expression occurred in the head, in both the adult and the larval tissues, followed by the gut in larvae and the antennae in adults. These developmental stages and tissues with high TcCYP9Z6 expression are closely related to the detoxification of heterologous substances. These results indicated that TcCYP9Z6 may play a pivotal role in the detoxification of terpinen-4-ol, which provides support for using TcCYP9Z6 a potential gene for the RNAi-mediated prevention and control of T. castaneum.

Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 194:895-902. [PMID: 34843814 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2021.11.144] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/20/2021] [Revised: 11/18/2021] [Accepted: 11/22/2021] [Indexed: 11/19/2022]
Abstract
Cytochrome P450 monooxygenase (P450 or CYP) plays an important role in the metabolism of insecticides and plant allelochemicals by insects. CYP321B1, a novel Spodoptera litura P450 gene, was identified and characterized. CYP321B1 contains a 1488 bp open reading frame (ORF) that encodes a 495 amino acid protein. In fourth instar larvae, the highest CYP321B1 expression levels were found in the midgut and fat body. In the tannin feeding test, tannin can significantly induce the expression of CYP321B1 in the midgut and fat body of 4th instar larvae. To verify the function of CYP321B1, RNA interference and metabolome analysis were performed. The results showed that silencing CYP321B1 significantly reduced the rate of weight gain under tannin induction. Metabolome analysis showed silencing affected 47 different metabolites, mainly involved in secondary metabolite biosynthesis and amino acid metabolism, including amino acids, lipid fatty acids, organic acids and their derivatives. Henoxyacetic acid and cysteamine are the most highly regulated metabolites, respectively. These findings demonstrate that CYP321B1 plays an important role in tannin detoxification and metabolism. Functional knowledge about metabolite detoxification genes in this major herbivorous insect pest can provide new insights into this biological process and provide new targets for agricultural pest control.

Abstract
Insect herbivores use phytochemicals as signals to induce expression of their phytochemical-detoxifying cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (P450s). The regulatory cascades that transduce phytochemical signals to enhanced expression of P450s are the focus of this review. At least seven signaling pathways, including RTK/MAPK, GPCR/CREB, GPCR/NFκB, ROS/CncC/Keap1, AhR/ARNT, cytosol NR, and nucleus-located NR, may be involved in phytochemical induction of P450s. Constitutive overexpression, overphosphorylation, and/or activation of one or more effectors in the corresponding pathway are common causes of P450 overexpression that lead to phytochemical or insecticide resistance. Future research should pay more attentions to the starting point of each pathway, the number of pathways and their cross talk for a given phytochemical, and the pathways for downregulation of P450s.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (P450s) play a key role in the detoxification of phytochemicals in arthropod herbivores. We present here an overview of recent progress in understanding the breadth and specificity of gene expression plasticity of P450s in response to phytochemicals. We discuss experimental setups and new findings in mechanisms of P450 regulation. Whole genome transcriptomic analysis of arthropod herbivores, either after direct administration of phytochemicals or after host plant shifts, allowed to integrate various levels of chemical complexity and lead to the unbiased identification of responsive P450 genes. However, despite progress in identification of inducible P450s, the link between induction and metabolism is still largely unexplored, and to what extent the overall response is biologically functional should be further investigated. In the near future, such studies will be more straightforward as forward and reverse genetic tools become more readily available.

Abstract
The cytochrome P450 monooxygenases of insects play crucial roles in the metabolic detoxification of insecticides. Our previous finding showed that two cytochrome P450 genes, both CYP301B1 and CYP6AX1v2, in the BPH underwent overexpression due to β-asarone. In this study, we investigated the molecular characteristics, expression patterns and functions of these two cytochrome P450 genes. The results showed that CYP301B1 had the highest expression level in the eggs, while CYP6AX1v2 was expressed in macropterous female adults. Moreover, the expression level of CYP301B1 in the head was higher than that in the integument, fat body and gut. The expression level of CYP6AX1v2 in the fat body and gut was higher than that in head and integument. Importantly, silencing CYP301B1 and CYP6AX1v2 separately could increase the sensitivity, resulting in significant higher mortality of BPH following treatment with β-asarone. Our findings indicated that CYP301B1 and CYP6AX1v2 could contribute to the resistance of BPH to β-asarone, and these two genes may be involved in the detoxification metabolism of β-asarone in BPH.

Abstract
Dinotefuran, the third-generation neonicotinoid, has been applied against melon/cotton aphid Aphis gossypii Glover in China. The risk of resistance development, cross-resistance pattern and potential resistance mechanism of dinotefuran in A. gossypii were investigated. A dinotefuran-resistant strain of A. gossypii (DinR) with 74.7-fold resistance was established by continuous selection using dinotefuran. The DinR strain showed a medium level of cross resistance to thiamethoxam (15.2-fold), but no cross resistance to imidacloprid. The synergism assay indicated that piperonyl butoxide and triphenyl phosphate showed synergistic effects on dinotefuran toxicity to the DinR strain with a synergistic ratio of 8.3 and 2.5, respectively, while diethyl maleate showed no synergistic effect. The activities of cytochrome P450 monooxygenase and carboxylesterase were significantly higher in DinR strain than in susceptible strain (SS). Moreover, the gene expression results showed that CYP6CY14, CYP6CY22 and CYP6UN1 were significantly overexpressed in DinR strain compared with SS strain. The expression of CYP6CY14 was 5.8-fold higher in DinR strain than in SS strain. Additionally, the transcription of CYP6CY14, CYP6CY22 and CYP6UN1 in A. gossypii showed dose- and time-dependent responses to dinotefuran exposure. Furthermore, knockdown of CYP6CY14, CYP6CY22 and CYP6UN1 via RNA interference (RNAi) significantly increased mortality of A. gossypii, when A. gossypii was treated with dinotefuran. These results demonstrated the overexpression of CYP6CY14, CYP6CY22 and CYP6UN1 contributed to dinotefuran resistance in A. gossypii.

Abstract
Insecticide induced-hormesis, a bi-phasic phenomenon characterized by low dose stimulation and high dose inhibition following exposure to insecticide, is crucial to insect pest resurgence. In this study, the effects of low or sublethal concentrations of thiamethoxam on biological traits and genes expression were investigated for Aphis gossypii Glover following 72 h exposures. Leaf-Dip bioassay results showed that thiamethoxam was very toxic against adult A. gossypii with an LC50 of 1.175 mg L-1. The low lethal (LC15) and sublethal (LC5) concentrations of thiamethoxam significantly reduced longevity and fecundity of the directly exposed aphids. However, stimulatory effects on pre-adult stage, longevity, and fertility were observed in the progeny generation (F1) of A. gossypii, when parental aphids (F0) were exposed to LC15 of thiamethoxam. Subsequently, biological traits such as intrinsic rate of increase (r), finite rate of increase (λ), and net reproductive rate (R0) increased significantly to F1 individuals due to LC15 treatment. No significant responses were observed for LC5 of thiamethoxam. The LC15 of thiamethoxam significantly increased the expression level of vitellogenin and ecdysone receptors genes in progeny generation, while no effects were observed for treatment with LC5. Additionally, the expression levels of P450 genes including CYP6CY14, CYP6CZ1, CYP6DC1, CYP6CY9, and CYP6DD1 were up-regulated in the exposed aphids. Taken together, our results show the hormetic effects of thiamethoxam on F1 individuals, which might be due to the intermittent changes in expression of genes involved in fertility, growth and insecticide detoxification in A. gossypii.

Abstract
Insect cytochrome P450 monooxygenases play an important role in plant allelochemical detoxification. In this study, a full-length gene CYP305A1 of the P450 Clan 2 family was cloned from Aphis gossypii Glover, and its promoter was identified and characterized. The transcript level of CYP305A1 and its promoter activity were significantly induced by two plant allelochemicals, gossypol and 2-tridecanone. Furthermore, the 5'-end promoter region from -810 to +62 bp was demonstrated to be essential for basal transcriptional activity of CYP305A1, and the promoter region from -810 to -581 bp was shown as an essential plant allelochemical responsive element and had a cis-element 5'-CACACTA-3' as the binding site of aryl hydrocarbon receptor. Interestingly, there was an identical overlapping region of 1,094 bp between CYP305A1 promoter and the venom protease gene. When the expression of CYP305A1 gene was knocked down by RNA interference with CYP305A1 dsRNA, the expression of the venom protease gene was decreased. However, the knockdown of the expression of the venom protease gene did not affect the CYP305A1 expression. These results provide important insights for understanding the functions of P450 genes and the regulatory mechanism of P450 gene expressions in the resistance of Aphis gossypii Glover to plant allelochemicals.
