Abstract
HYPOTHESIS Due to the intrinsic nature of the surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), the detection of molecules with weak binding affinities toward metal substrates is critical for development of a universal SERS sensing platform. We hypothesized the physical trapping of small pesticide molecules for active hot spot generation using tyramine-mediated crosslinking chemistry and silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) enhances SERS detection sensitivity. EXPERIMENTS Tyramine-mediated crosslinking chemistry for sensor application was validated by ultraviolet-visible absorption spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, dynamic light scattering, and Raman spectroscopy. SERS sensing platform using tyramine-mediated crosslinking reaction was systematically studied for detection of 1,4-dyethylnylbenzene as a model analyte. This sensor system was applied to detect two other pesticides, thiabendazole and 1,2,3,5-tetrachlorobenzene, which have different binding affinities toward metal surfaces. FINDINGS The SERS signal of 1,4-dyethylnylbenzene obtained using this sensor system was 3.6 times stronger than that obtained using the Ag colloidal due to the nanogap of approximately 1.3 nm within the generated hot spots. This sensor system based on tyramine-mediated crosslinked Ag NPs was evaluated as a promising tool to achieve a solution based sensitive detection of various pesticide molecules that cannot be adsorbed on the surfaces of typical SERS substrates such as metal nanoparticles.

Modulation of immune functions, inflammatory response, and cytokine production following long-term oral exposure to three food additives; thiabendazole, monosodium glutamate, and brilliant blue in rats. Int Immunopharmacol 2021; 98:107902. [PMID: 34182247 DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2021.107902] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2021] [Revised: 05/06/2021] [Accepted: 06/16/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
The food additives thiabendazole (TBZ), monosodium glutamate (MSG), and brilliant blue (BB) are commonly used in many daily-consumed food products worldwide. They are widely used in major agricultural and industrial applications. Yet, many of its toxicological aspects are still unclear, especially immune modulation. This research was therefore intended to investigate the effects of male Wistar rats' daily oral exposure for 90 days to TBZ (10 mg/kg b.wt), MSG (20 mg/kg b.wt), or BB (1.2 mg/kg b.wt) on the blood cells, immunity, and inflammatory indicators. The three tested food additives showed varying degrees of hematological alterations. Initially, megaloblastic anemia and thrombocytopenia were evident with the three tested food additives. At the same time, TBZ showed no significant changes in the leukogram element except eosinopenia. MSG induced leukopenia, lymphocytopenia, neutrophilia, and eosinophilia. BB evoked neutrophilia and lymphopenia. The immunoglobins M (IgM) and IgG were significantly reduced with the three tested food additives. In contrast, lysozyme and nitric oxide levels were elevated. A reduced considerably lymphocyte proliferation was detected with TBZ and MSG exposure without affecting the phagocytic activity. Various pathologic disturbances in splenic tissues have been detected. An obvious increase in CD4+ but a lessening in CD8+ immunolabeling was evident in TBZ and MSG groups. The cytokines, including interferon-gamma, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, and interleukin 1β, 6, 10, and 13, were significantly upregulated in the spleen of rats exposed to TBZ, MSG, and BB. These results concluded that TBZ, MSG, and BB negatively affect hematological parameters, innate and humoral immune functions together with inflammatory responses. TBZ achieved the maximal negative impacts followed by MSG and finally with BB. Given the prevalence of these food additives, TBZ and MSG should be limited to a minimal volume use, or natural food additives should be used instead.

Abstract
Thiabendazole (TBZ) and its major metabolite 5-hydroxythiabendazole (5OH-TBZ) were screened for potential time-dependent inhibition (TDI) against CYP1A2. Screen assays were carried out in the absence and presence of NADPH. TDI was observed with both compounds, with k(inact) and K(I) values of 0.08 and 0.02 min(-1) and 1.4 and 63.3 microM for TBZ and 5OH-TBZ, respectively. Enzyme inactivation was time-, concentration-, and NADPH-dependent. Inactivation by TBZ was irreversible by dialysis and oxidation by potassium ferricyanide, and there was no protection by glutathione. 5OH-TBZ was a weak TDI of CYP1A2, and enzyme activity was recovered by dialysis. IC(50) determination of TBZ and 5OH-TBZ showed both compounds to be potent inhibitors, with IC(50) values of 0.83 and 13.05 microM, respectively. IC(50) shift studies also demonstrated that TBZ was a TDI of CYP1A2. In silico methods identified the thiazole group as a TDI fragment and predicted it as the site of metabolism. The observation pointed to epoxidation of the thiazole and the benzyl rings of TBZ as possible routes of metabolism and mechanisms of TDI. Drug-drug interaction (DDI) simulation studies using SimCyp showed good predictions for competitive inhibition. However, predictions for mechanism-based inhibition (MBI)-based DDI were not in agreement with clinical observations. There was no TBZ accumulation upon chronic administration of the drug. The in vitro MBI findings might therefore not be capturing the in vivo situation in which the proposed bioactivation route is minor. This might be the case for TBZ in which, in vivo, UDP glucuronosyltransferases and sulfanotransferase metabolize and eliminate the 5OH-TBZ.

Abstract
Thiabendazole (TBZ) is a broad-spectrum antihelmintic used for treatment of parasitic infections in animals and humans and as an agricultural fungicide for postharvest treatment of fruits and vegetables. It is teratogenic and nephrotoxic in mice, and cases of hepatotoxicity have been observed in humans. Recent reports have demonstrated a correlation between 5-hydroxythiabendazole (5-OHTBZ) formation, a major metabolite of TBZ, and covalent binding of [(14)C]TBZ to hepatocytes, suggesting another pathway of activation of TBZ. Current in vitro studies were undertaken to probe the bioactivation of TBZ via 5-OHTBZ by cytochrome P450 (P450) and peroxidases and identify the reactive species by trapping with reduced glutathione (GSH). Microsomal incubation of TBZ or 5-OHTBZ supplemented with NADPH and GSH afforded a GSH adduct of 5-OHTBZ and was consistent with a bioactivation pathway that involved a P450-catalyzed two-electron oxidation of 5-OHTBZ to a quinone imine. The same adduct was detected in GSH-fortified incubations of 5-OHTBZ with peroxidases. The identity of the GSH conjugate suggested that the same reactive intermediate was formed by both these enzyme systems. Characterization of the conjugate by mass spectrometry and NMR revealed the addition of GSH at the 4-position of 5-OHTBZ. In addition, the formation of a dimer of 5-OHTBZ was discernible in peroxidase-mediated incubations. These results were consistent with a one-electron oxidation of 5-OHTBZ to a radical species that could undergo disproportionation or an additional one-electron oxidation to form a quinone imine. Overall, these studies suggest that 5-OHTBZ can also play a role in TBZ-induced toxicity via its bioactivation by P450 and peroxidases.

Abstract
This paper summarises and extends the work developed over the last decade by the Joint FAO/WHO Meeting on Pesticide Residues (JMPR) for acute health risk assessment of agricultural pesticides. The general considerations in setting of acute reference doses (ARfDs) in a step-wise process, as well as specific considerations and guidance regarding selected toxicological endpoints are described in detail. The endpoints selected are based on the practical experience with agricultural pesticides by the JMPR and are not a comprehensive listing of all possible relevant endpoints. Haematotoxicity, immunotoxicity, neurotoxicity, liver and kidney toxicity, endocrine effects as well as developmental effects are taken into account as acute toxic alerts, relevant for the consideration of ARfDs for pesticides. The general biological background and the data available through standard toxicological testing for regulatory purposes, interpretation of the data, conclusions and recommendations for future improvements are described for each relevant endpoint. The paper also considers a single dose study protocol. This type of study is not intended to be included in routine toxicological testing for regulatory purposes, but rather to guide further testing when the current database indicates the necessity for an ARfD but does not allow a reliable derivation of the value.

Abstract
Male and female CD-1 mice (50 mice per group) were administered thiabendazole (TBZ) in diet at levels of 0 (control), 0.031, 0.125 and 0.5% for 78 weeks. A life time study was terminated after 78 weeks due to enhanced strain specific mortality. There were no significant differences in mortality between the control and treated groups. Mean body weights of high-dose groups showed significant decreases compared with the controls. The bladder weights of male and female mice of the 0.5% group were significantly higher than those of the control mice. Gross findings in treated mice included the renal atrophy, hydronephrosis, calculi in renal pelvis and/or bladder and ovarian atrophy. Microscopic findings in the kidneys of treated mice included the nephrosis, hydronephrosis or hyperplasia of transitional epithelium of renal pelvis or papilla. In the bladder of treated mice, hyperplasia or squamous metaplasia of transitional epithelium and one transitional cell papilloma were observed. Dose-dependent decreases in the incidence of spontaneous lesion in the male or female reproductive system were recognized. It is concluded that TBZ is not carcinogenic to CD-1 mice of both sexes. However, caution should be exercised in the long-term application of high TBZ doses.

Abstract
The effects of thiabendazole (TBZ) on mitochondrial function of the renal cortex were investigated in ICR mice. Mice were given 1000 or 2000 mg TBZ/kg body weight by gavage and mitochondria were isolated from the renal cortex for the measurement of respiratory rates. The state 3 and DNP-uncoupled respiratory rates of renal cortical mitochondria were dose-dependently depressed at 6 hours after dosing. The depression of these respiratory rates of renal cortical mitochondria was more marked at 16 hours after dosing. There was no depression in these respiratory rates of renal cortical mitochondria at 3 hours after dosing, although renal cortical concentrations of TBZ were higher than those at 6 or 16 hours after dosing. Histochemical examination revealed that NAD-linked isocitrate dehydrogenase, a marker enzyme of mitochondria, was inhibited in renal cortical tubules at 16 hours after dosing of 1000 or 2000 mg TBZ/kg body weight. Furthermore, renal cortical ATP level was significantly decreased at 16 hours after dosing of 1000 or 2000 mg TBZ/kg body weight. The results indicate that administration of TBZ caused mitochondrial dysfunction in renal cortical tubules of mice.

Abstract
The nephrotoxicity and recovery following administration of thiabendazole (TBZ) were investigated in ICR adult mice. A single oral administration of TBZ (500-2000 mg/kg body wt.) caused a dose-dependent proximal tubular necrosis in the kidney and increase in serum urea nitrogen 24 h after dosing. These changes were marked in mice of high dose groups (1000 or 2000 mg TBZ/kg body wt.). The time course of changes on kidney of mice treated with 1000 or 2000 mg TBZ/kg body weight were examined at 1, 2, 3, 5, 7 or 10 days after dosing. Light microscopy showed necrosis of proximal convoluted tubules from 1 day after dosing. Tubular necrosis was extensive 2 or 3 days after dosing. Partial regeneration from tubular necrosis was seen 3 days after dosing, and substantial regeneration had occurred from 5 days after dosing. Thus, TBZ-induced renal injury was most severe at 2 or 3 days after dosing and was followed by regeneration. Electron microscopy showed swelling of mitochondria in the proximal tubular epithelium at 1 day after dosing. The pathological changes were correlated with the changes in urinalysis, serum urea nitrogen concentration and kidney weight.
