THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 935:173418. [PMID: 38788938 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.173418] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2024] [Revised: 05/16/2024] [Accepted: 05/19/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024]
Abstract
Flupyradifurone (FPF) has been reported to have a potential risk to terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. In the present study, the effects of chronic FPF exposure on bees were systematically investigated at the individual behavioral, tissue, cell, enzyme activity, and the gene expression levels. Chronic exposure (14 d) to FPF led to reduced survival (12 mg/L), body weight gain (4 and 12 mg/L), and food utilization efficiency (4 and 12 mg/L). Additionally, FPF exposure (12 mg/L) impaired sucrose sensitivity and memory of bees. Morphological analysis revealed significant cellular and subcellular changes in brain neurons and midgut epithelial cells, including mitochondrial damage, nuclear disintegration, and apoptosis. FPF exposure (4 and 12 mg/L) led to oxidative stress, as evidenced by increased lipid peroxidation and alterations in antioxidant enzyme activity. Notably, gene expression analysis indicated significant dysregulation of apoptosis, immune, detoxification, sucrose responsiveness and memory-related genes, suggesting the involvement of different pathways in FPF-induced toxicity. The multiple stresses and potential mechanisms described here provide a basis for determining the intrinsic toxicity of FPF.

ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2024; 249:118458. [PMID: 38365059 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2024.118458] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/20/2023] [Revised: 02/08/2024] [Accepted: 02/09/2024] [Indexed: 02/18/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Epidemiological data regarding thyroid diseases are lacking, in particular for occupationally exposed populations. OBJECTIVES To compare the risk of hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism between farming activities within the complete population of French farm managers (FMs). METHODS Digital health data from retrospective administrative databases, including insurance claims and electronic health/medical records, was employed. This cohort data spanned the entirety of French farm managers (FMs) who had undertaken work at least once from 2002 to 2016. Survival analysis with the time to initial medication reimbursement as timescale was used to examine the association (hazard ratio, HR) between 26 specific farming activities and both treated hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism. A distinct model was developed for each farming activity, comparing FMs who had never engaged in the specific farming activity between 2002 and 2016 with those who had. All analyses were adjusted for potential confounders (e.g., age), and sensitivity analyses were conducted. RESULTS Among 1088561 FMs (mean age 46.6 [SD 14.1]; 31% females), there were 31834 hypothyroidism cases (75% females) and 620 hyperthyroidism cases (67% females), respectively. The highest risks were observed for cattle activities for both hyperthyroidism (HR ranging from 1.75 to 2.42) and hypothyroidism (HR ranging from 1.41 to 1.44). For hypothyroidism, higher risks were also observed for several animal farming activities (pig, poultry, and rabbit), as well as fruit arboriculture (HR = 1.22 [1.14-1.31]). The lowest risks were observed for activities involving horses. Sex differences in the risk of hypothyroidism were observed for eight activities, with the risk being higher for males (HR = 1.09 [1.01-1.20]) than females in viticulture (HR = 0.97 [0.93-1.00]). The risk of hyperthyroidism was two times higher for male dairy farmers than females. DISCUSSION Our findings offer a comprehensive overview of thyroid disease risks within the FM community. Thyroid ailments might not stem from a single cause but likely arise from the combined effects of various causal agents and triggering factors (agricultural exposome). Further investigation into distinct farming activities-especially those involving cattle-is essential to pinpoint potential risk factors that could enhance thyroid disease monitoring in agriculture.

Abstract
Tobacco mosaic virus coat protein (TMV-CP), as a potential target for the development of antiviral agents, can assist in the long-distance movement of viruses and plays an extremely important role in virus replication and propagation. This work focuses on the synthesis and the action mechanism of novel 4H-pyrazolo[3,4-d] pyrimidin-4-one hydrazine derivatives. The synthesized compounds exhibited promising antiviral activity on TMV. Specifically, compound G2 exhibited high inactivating activity (93%) toward TMV, slightly better than commercial reagent NNM (90%). The action of mechanism was further explored by employed molecular docking, molecular dynamics simulation, microscale thermophoresis, qRT-PCR, and transmission electron microscopy. Results indicated that G2 had the capability to interact with amino acid residues such as Trp352, Tyr139, and Asn73 in the active pocket of TMV-CP, creating strong hydrophobic interactions and thus obstructing the virus's self-assembly.

Abstract
Flubendiamide (FLU), a widely used diamide insecticide, has been observed to potentiate adipogenesis in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes in vitro. Whether exposure to FLU disrupts hepatic lipid homeostasis in mammals and induces visceral obesity, however, remains unclear. The aim of this study was to assess the effects of FLU when administered orally to male C57BL/6J mice under normal diet (ND) and high-fat diet (HFD) conditions. FLU accumulated at higher levels in the tissues of the HFD group than those of the ND group, indicating that an HFD contributed to the accumulation of lipophilic pesticides in vivo. Notably, FLU (logP = 4.14) is highly lipophilic and easily accumulates in fat. Exposure to FLU had opposing effects on the lipid metabolism of the liver in the ND and HFD groups. Liver triacylglycerol levels in the ND group were reduced, while those in the HFD group were increased, resulting in more severe hepatic steatosis. More lipid accumulation was also observed in HepG2 cells exposed to FLU. Changes in hepatic lipid deposition in vivo occurred as the enhanced transcriptional regulation of the genes involved in lipid uptake, de novo lipogenesis, and fatty acid β-oxidation (FAO). Moreover, an excessive increase in FAO caused oxidative stress, which in turn exacerbated the inflammation of the liver. This study revealed the disruptive effect of FLU exposure on hepatic lipid homeostasis, which may facilitate the triggering of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in HFD-fed mice.

Exploratory analysis of the associations between neonicotinoids insecticides and serum lipid profiles among US adults: A cross-sectional, population-based study. ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2023; 268:115724. [PMID: 37992647 DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2023.115724] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2023] [Revised: 10/13/2023] [Accepted: 11/19/2023] [Indexed: 11/24/2023]
Abstract
Neonicotinoid insecticides (NNIs) are widely used in agriculture, horticulture, forestry, and household environment, but their potential impact on human health remains a subject of concern. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between NNIs and their metabolites in urine with serum lipid profiles in adults using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2015-2016. The study included 1192 participants aged over 20 years with urinary NNIs levels, serum lipid parameter levels and potential confounders. Urinary concentrations of NNIs, including imidacloprid, acetamiprid, clothianidin, thiacloprid, N-desmethyl-acetamiprid, and 5-hydroxy-imidacloprid, were quantified. Serum lipids profiles, such as total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and apolipoprotein B (Apo-B), were assessed. Considering the effects of lipid-lowering medications, the censored normal regression model was used to explore the associations between urinary NNIs and TC, TG, HDL-C, LDL-C and Apo-B levels. The results revealed a significant increase of 9.0 mg/dL (95%CI: 2.0, 16.1) in TC levels among participants with detectable N-desmethyl-acetamiprid compared to those with undetectable levels. Stratified analysis indicated that the association between N-desmethyl-acetamiprid and HDL-C levels was more pronounced among participants aged ≥ 46 years compared to those aged between 20 and 45 years with undetectable N-desmethyl-acetamiprid (pinteraction=0.044). Additionally, there were marginal effect modification of BMI on the association between N-desmethyl-acetamiprid and LDL-C (pinteraction=0.097) and Apo-B (pinteraction=0.052) levels. Specifically, participants with BMI ≥ 25 kg/m² and detectable N-desmethyl-acetamiprid tended to have higher LDL-C and Apo-B levels compared to those with BMI < 25 kg/m² and undetectable N-desmethyl-acetamiprid. However, no significant associations were observed between other NNIs and lipid profiles in the present study. To validate these findings, further longitudinal studies with larger sample sizes should be conducted, particularly within populations characterized by a high detection rate of NNIs.

Abstract
Here, the transcriptomics and metabolomics on a model of exposure to a cocktail of neonicotinoids (Neo) containing seven commercial compounds and a synergist piperonyl butoxide (PBO) were established. The results showed that Neo and PBO disrupted mRNA and metabolite levels in a dose-dependent manner. Neo caused tryptophan pathway-related neurotoxicity, reduced lipolysis, and promoted fat mass accumulation in the liver, while PBO induced an increase in inflammatory factors and damage to intercellular membranes. Co-exposure enhanced Neo-induced liver steatosis, focal necrosis, and oxidative stress by inhibiting oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). Furthermore, diglycerides and metabolic biomarkers demonstrated that the activation of insulin signaling is associated with restricted OXPHOS, which commonly leads to a high risk of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) as the result of over-synthesis of lipids, low energy supply, and high thermogenesis. The study demonstrates that chronic disease can be induced by Neo and the synergist PBO at the molecular level.

Insights into the Metabolic Response of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum CCFM1287 upon Patulin Exposure. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms231911652.

Abstract
Patulin (PAT) is a common mycotoxin in the food industry, and is found in apple products in particular. Consumption of food or feed contaminated with PAT can cause acute or chronic toxicity in humans and animals. Lactiplantibacillus plantarum CCFM1287 is a probiotic strain that effectively degrades PAT in PBS and food systems. In this study, it was found that the concentration of PAT (50 mg/L) in MRS medium decreased by 85.09% during the first stages of CCFM1287 growth, and this change was consistent with the first-order degradation kinetic model. Meanwhile, the regulation of oxidative stress by L. plantarum CCFM1287 in response to PAT exposure and metabolic changes that occur during PAT degradation were investigated. The degree of intracellular damage was attenuated after 16 h of exposure compared to 8 h. Meanwhile, metabolomic data showed that 30 and 29 significantly different metabolites were screened intracellularly in the strain after 8 h and 16 h of PAT stress at 50 mg/L, respectively. The results of pathway enrichment analysis suggested that the purine metabolic pathway was significantly enriched at both 8 h and 16 h. However, as is consistent with the performance of the antioxidant system, the changes in Lactiplantibacillus diminished with increasing time of PAT exposure. Therefore, this study helps to further explain the mechanism of PAT degradation by L. plantarum CCFM1287.

Abstract
Information on pesticide metabolites is crucial for accurate environmental risk assessment. However, identifying the various metabolites of a novel pesticide is challenging since the potential metabolic pathways are unknown. In this study, we coupled diverse positional 14C labeling with high-resolution mass spectrometry to quantitatively and qualitatively study pesticide metabolism in rats. With the unique M/(M + 2) ratios derived from 14C, precursor compounds of metabolites could be better distinguished from impurity ions. Additionally, the use of diverse 14C labeling positions is a powerful tool to elucidate the complete metabolic fate of novel contaminants. Vanisulfane is a novel vanillin-derived antiviral agent with encouraging prospects for the efficient control of cucumber mosaic virus in China, but its metabolic pathways in mammals are still poorly understood. Thus, the metabolism of vanisulfane was studied in rats of both sexes by this strategy. The results showed that phase I and phase II metabolism occurred in both sexes. The former included mainly oxidation reactions, and the latter involved binding reactions that formed glucuronide, sulfate and amino acid conjugates. Sex-related differences were observed in the experiment, with earlier appearance of downstream metabolites and a preference for sulfate conjugate formation in males compared to females. This research facilitates the risk evaluation of vanisulfane, and offers an effective framework for screening unknown pesticide metabolic pathways, which could be applied to establish the metabolic profiles of other novel contaminants with limited information.

Abstract
Overweight, obesity, and related diseases are currently the major public health problems worldwide. Astilbin, extracted from the rhizome of Smilax glabra Roxb., is known to have significant anti-inflammatory activity and hepatoprotective effect. Studies have shown that it can inhibit adipogenesis in adipocytes in vitro; however, the intervention benefits of astilbin against obesity and related diseases along with its associated mechanisms remain unknown. This study aimed to demonstrate the impact of astilbin consumption on the overall biochemical pattern of high-fat diet (HFD) mice by using a combined multi-omics approach. Our data indicated that astilbin reduced body weight, insulin resistance, and inflammation in mice fed an HFD. Astilbin improved HFD-induced gut microbial dysbiosis by decreasing the Firmicutes-to-Bacteroidetes ratio, by increasing beneficial bacteria such as Alistipes and Muribaculum and decreasing harmful bacteria including Lachnospiraceae FCS020 group, Coriobacteriaceae UCG-002, and Lachnospiraceae UCG-008, resulting in enhanced intestinal carbohydrate and lipid metabolism. Meanwhile, astilbin protected the integrity of the intestinal barrier in HFD mice, increased short-chain fatty acid levels, and reduced metabolic endotoxemia. We further showed that astilbin attenuated hepatic lipid droplet aggregation and triglyceride accumulation in HFD mice, affected glutamate metabolism-related pathways, and enhanced hepatic ATP transduction pathways and attenuated xanthine metabolism pathways in mice, which were positively correlated with the abundance of Alistipes and negatively correlated with Ruminococcaceae UCG-003. The results highlighted that astilbin could be used as a prebiotic for the prevention of "gut-liver axis" damage and metabolic disruption in obese individuals.
