Accumulation, metabolites formation and elimination behavior of rac-glufosinate-ammonium and glufosinate-P in zebrafish (Danio rerio). Food Chem X 2022; 15:100383. [PMID: 36211745 PMCID: PMC9532730 DOI: 10.1016/j.fochx.2022.100383] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2022] [Revised: 06/22/2022] [Accepted: 07/03/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Zebrafish samples were purified with diatomaceous earth, CH2Cl2 and Oasis PRiME HLB SPE column. The bioaccumulation of glufosinate in zebrafish is enantioselective. The accumulation of glufosinate-P in zebrafish was greater than that of rac-glufosinate. The elimination half-life of glufosinate in zebrafish is less than 2.3 d. NAG and MPP produced in fish was not over 4% of the parent culture concentration.
An efficient trace detection method for the determination of residues of the glufosinate enantiomers and metabolites in zebrafish by HPLC–Q-Exactive Orbitrap Mass Spectrometry was developed. After the purification of dichloromethane and Oasis PRiME HLB SPE column, the recovery ranges from 77% to 104%, with RSD < 10.03%. The limits of quantitation in zebrafish were 0.006–0.02 mg/kg. The results revealed zebrafish absorbed glufosinate slowly, reaching a steady state in 10–14 days, and the bioaccumulation factor (BCF) of D/L-glufosinate-ammonium was less than 0.3. L-glufosinate-ammonium accumulated preferentially in zebrafish. The residue of the metabolite N-acetyl glutamate (NAG) was smaller than that of 3-methyl phosphonic acid (MPP). D/L-glufosinate-ammonium had an elimination half-life of less than 2.3 days during the elimination phase. The bioaccumulation and elimination behavior of glufosinate-ammonium in zebrafish aquatic system was shown in this work, which offered scientific data for assessing the food safety of rac-glufosinate-ammonium and glufosinate-P (pure L-glufosinate-ammonium) in fish.

Environmental behavior of the chiral fungicide epoxiconazole in earthworm-soil system: Enantioselective enrichment, degradation kinetics, chiral metabolite identification, and biotransformation mechanism. ENVIRONMENT INTERNATIONAL 2022; 167:107442. [PMID: 35921772 DOI: 10.1016/j.envint.2022.107442] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/10/2022] [Revised: 07/21/2022] [Accepted: 07/27/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
The environmental impact of the chiral fungicide epoxiconazole and its chiral transformation products (TPs) on non-target organisms and the environment has become a significant concern due to its widespread use in agricultural practice. Enantioselectivity studies of parent contaminants cannot adequately assess the complexity of its chiral TPs in the environment. This study aimed to investigate the environmental behavior of epoxiconazole in an earthworm-soil system. 2S,3R-(-)-epoxiconazole was preferentially enriched in earthworms during the accumulation phase (p < 0.05), but no enantioselectivity was observed during the elimination phase. One methoxylated and four hydroxylated chiral TPs were identified in soil, earthworm, and excrement. The epoxy ring hydroxylated TP and methoxylated TP of epoxiconazole were discovered for the first time in the environment. The chemically specific enantioselectivity with enantiomer fraction (EF) > 0.8 was observed for the TPs in different matrices. The CYP450 monooxygenase of earthworm was significant activated. In vitro enzyme metabolism experiments (earthworm microsomes and recombinant CYP450 enzymes CYP2A6, CYP 2C9, and CYP 3A4) were carried out to further explain the biotransformation mechanism of epoxiconazole in earthworm. This study provides new evidence of enantiomeric biotransformation of chiral fungicide epoxiconazole in the earthworm-soil system and could provide valuable insights into their environmental risk assessment.

Abstract
Chlordane-related compounds are ubiquitously detected in the environment and can transfer and accumulate to animals through food chain to cause adverse effects. In this study, the dynamic distribution and the enantiomeric profile of chlordane-related compounds in laying hens over time were investigated. The effect of these compounds on immune-associated cells in the intestinal tract and histopathology in some tissues were also evaluated after long-term exposure. The chlordane-related compounds preferentially accumulated in fat, followed by the intestines, ovum, and egg yolk during long-term exposure. The metabolites heptachlor epoxide and oxychlordane were mainly formed in the liver of hens by epoxidation or hydroxylation. The high accumulation ratios of trans-nonachlor and MC5 were found in ovum and egg yolk after long-term exposure, implying a greater risk to the hens' offspring. Chlordane-related compounds may cause abnormal lipometabolism and glycometabolism in liver of hens. Additionally, (-)-Cis-chlordane was dominant in all tissues of laying hens and its dominance increased over time. Conversely, (+)-isomer of metabolite oxychlordane was overwhelmingly dominant during the experiment. These findings about enantioselectivity, metabolic processes and toxicological effects are crucial in understanding the exposure risk of chlordane-related compounds.

Abstract
There are many organochlorine pollutants in the environment, which can be directly or indirectly exposed to by mothers, and as estrogen endocrine disruptors can cause damage to the lactation capacity of the mammary gland. In addition, because breast milk contains a lot of nutrients, it is the most important food source for new-born babies. If mothers are exposed to organochlorine pesticides (OCPs), the lipophilic organochlorine contaminants can accumulate in breast milk fat and be passed to the infant through breast milk. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate organochlorine contaminants in human milk to estimate the health risks of these contaminants to breastfed infants. In addition, toxic substances in the mother can also be passed to the fetus through the placenta, which is also something we need to pay attention to. This article introduces several types of OCPs, such as dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT), methoxychlor (MXC), hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH), endosulfan, chlordane, heptachlorand and hexachlorobenzene (HCB), mainly expounds their effects on women's lactation ability and infant health, and provides reference for maternal and infant health. In addition, some measures and methods for the control of organochlorine pollutants are also described here.

Abstract
Chiral organohalides including dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT), Hexabromocyclododecane (HBCD) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) raise a significant concern in the environmental occurrence, fate and ecotoxicology due to their enantioselective biological effects. This review provides a state-of-the-art overview on enantioselective microbial transformation of the chiral organohalides. We firstly summarized worldwide field assessments of chiral organohalides in a variety of environmental matrices, which suggested the pivotal role of microorganisms in enantioselective transformation of chiral organohalides. Then, laboratory studies provided experimental evidences to further link enantioselective attenuation of chiral organohalides to specific functional microorganisms and enzymes, revealing mechanistic insights into the enantioselective microbial transformation processes. Particularly, a few amino acid residues in the functional enzymes could play a key role in mediating the enantioselectivity at the molecular level. Finally, major challenges and further developments toward an in-depth understanding of the enantioselective microbial transformation of chiral organohalides are identified and discussed.

Abstract
Chirality is a critical topic in the medicinal and agrochemical fields. One quarter of all agrochemicals was chiral in 1996, and this proportion has increased remarkably with the introduction of new compounds over time. Despite scientists have made great efforts to probe the enantiomeric selectivity of chiral chemicals in the environment since early 1990s, the different behaviours of individual enantiomers in biologically mediated processes are still unclear. In the present review, we highlight state-of-the-knowledge on the stereoselective biotransformation and accumulation of chiral contaminants in organisms ranging from invertebrates to humans. Chiral insecticides, fungicides, and herbicides, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), pharmaceuticals, flame retardants hexabromocyclododecane (HBCD), and perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) are all included in the target compounds. Key findings included: a) Changes in the enantiomeric fractions in vitro and in vivo models revealed that enantioselectivity commonly occurs in biotransformation and bioaccumulation. b) Emerging contaminants have become more important in the field of enantioselectivity together with their metabolites in biological transformation process. c) Chiral signatures have also been regarded as powerful tools for tracking pollution sources when the contribution of precursor is unknown. Future studies are needed in order to understand not only preliminary enrichment results but also detailed molecular mechanisms in diverse models to comprehensively understand the behaviours of chiral compounds.

Abstract
Nevadensin is major constituents of Lysionotus pauciflorus Maxim. (Chinese name: Shidiaolan), which has a variety of pharmacological effects such as anti-mycobacterium tuberculosis activities, antitussive, anti-inflammatory and anti-hypertensive. In this paper, we investigated the metabolism of nevadensin in vitro and in vivo. A strategy was firstly developed to identify the metabolites of nevadensin by using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography/quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UHPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS). An on-line data acquisition method a multiple mass defect filter (MMDF) combined with dynamic background subtraction (DBS) was developed to trace all probable metabolites. Furthermore, some assistant tools, such as key fragment ions (KFI), were employed for compound hunting and identification. Based on the proposed method, 23 metabolites were structurally characterized in vivo including 16 phase I and 7 phase II metabolites, and 12 metabolites were detected in vitro containing 10 phase I and 2 phase II metabolites. The results indicated that oxidation, hydrolysis, demethylation, methylation, sulfate conjugation and glucuronide conjugation were main metabolic pathways of nevadensin. In a word, this study maybe can provide reference and valuable evidence for further investigation of the metabolic mechanism of nevadensin.

Abstract
Acetofenate (AF) is a chiral organochlorine pesticide used for controlling hygiene pests. In this study, the metabolism of AF in rabbits in vivo and in vitro was investigated and the primary chiral metabolite acetofenate-alcohol (AF-A) was analyzed. The cytotoxicity of AF and AF-A was also determined. AF in rabbits in vivo was eliminated so rapidly that AF could not be detected within 10min after intravenous administration at 20mg/kg (body weight), and AF-A was quickly formed. In vitro metabolism assay, using plasma and liver microsomes, showed that AF was also quickly metabolized to AF-A and the metabolic process was significantly enantioselective with preferential degradation of (-)-AF and formation of (-)-AF-A. The cytotoxicity of AF and AF-A were investigated by assessing cell proliferation, apoptosis and generation of reactive oxygen species. The results showed that AF and AF-A induce enantioselective cytotoxicity. This study will be helpful for improving knowledge about the metabolism and toxicity of AF on an enantiomeric level and providing evidence to understand the potential environmental risk.

Abstract
Epidemiological studies indicate that exposure to persistent organic pollutants is positively associated with the prevalence of obesity. To delineate the potential role of technical-grade chlordane in obesity development, chlordane metabolism and chlordane-induced metabolic changes were investigated in mice fed high-fat diet (HFD) over a 6-week period. Gas chromatography-electron capture detector analysis showed that HFD induced more accumulation of technical chlordane in the liver, muscle and adipose tissue. The enantioselectivities of oxychlordane in selected tissues were also influenced by HFD. 1H NMR-based liver metabolome indicated that technical chlordane can enhance the metabolic alterations induced by HFD. Compared with the low-fat diet (LFD) group, no differences were observed in the LFD + chlordane group. However, as many as 16 metabolites were significantly different between the HFD group and HFD + chlordane group. Moreover, compared to the LFD + chlordane group, the abundances of 24 metabolites significantly increased or decreased in the HFD + chlordane group. Twenty metabolites were altered in the HFD group compared to the LFD group. Tryptophan profiling suggested that both chlordane and HFD can disturb tryptophan catabolism. These interactions between technical chlordane and HFD suggest that technical chlordane is a candidate obesogen.

Abstract
Acaricide etoxazole belongs to the ovicides/miticides diphenyloxazole class, affecting adults to lay sterile eggs by inhibiting chitin biosynthesis possibly. The reverse-phase HPLC-MS/MS method was used to determine the etoxazole enantiomers. The enantioselective degradation behavior of rac-etoxazole in liver microsomes of rat and human in vitro with NADPH was dramatically different. The t1/2 of (R)-etoxazole was 15.23 min in rat liver microsomes and 30.54 min in human liver microsomes, while 21.73 and 23.50 min were obtained for (S)-etoxazole, respectively. The Vmax of (R)-etoxazole was almost 5-fold of (S)-etoxazole in liver microsomes of rat in vitro. However, the Vmax of (S)-etoxazole was almost 2-fold of (R)-etoxazole in liver microsomes of human in vitro. The CLint of etoxazole was also shown the enantioselectivity on the contrary in liver microsomes of rat and human. These results indicated that the metabolism of two etoxazole enantiomers was selective in liver microsomes of rat and human in vitro, and enantioselectivity in the two kinds of liver microsomes was in the difference in degradation performance. The reason might be related to the composition and content involved in the enzyme system.

Applicability of the Rayleigh equation for enantioselective metabolism of chiral xenobiotics by microsomes, hepatocytes and in-vivo retention in rabbit tissues. Sci Rep 2016; 6:23715.

Abstract
In this study we propose a new approach for analyzing the enantioselective biodegradation of some antidepressant drugs mediated by human and rat liver microsomes by using the Rayleigh equation to describe the enantiomeric enrichment−conversion dependencies. Analysis of reported degradation data of additional six pesticides, an alpha blocker and a flame retardant by microsomes or hepatocytes in vitro reaffirmed the universality of the approach. In all the in vitro studied cases that involved enantioselective degradation, a Rayleigh dependence of the enantiomeric enrichment was observed. Published data regarding in vivo retention of myclobutanil in liver, kidney, muscle and brain tissues of rabbits following injection of the racemate were remodeled showing prevalence of the Rayleigh law for the chiral enrichment of the fungicide in the various tissues. This approach will revolutionize data organization in metabolic pathway research of target xenobiotics by either liver microsomes, hepatocytes or their organ-specific in vivo retention. The fact that the enantiomeric enrichment as a function of the conversion can be described by a single quantifier, will pave the road for the use of structure activity predictors of the enantiomeric enrichment and for mechanistic discrimination based on parametric dependence of the quantifier.

Abstract
In the present study, the enantioselective metabolism, cytotoxicity of hexaconazole and its influence on tryptophan metabolism in rat hepatocytes in vitro were investigated. Following the exposure of primary rat hepatocytes to rac-hexaconazole, the concentrations of its enantiomers in the media were determined by chiral high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS). The half-lives (t1/2) of (+)-hexaconazole and (-)-hexaconazole were 5.17 h and 19.80 h, respectively, indicating that the metabolic process was enantioselective with (-)-hexaconazole enrichment. Using the MTT method, the EC50 values of rac-hexaconazole, (+)-hexaconazole and (-)-hexaconazole after 12h of exposure were determined to be 71.62, 62.71 and 67.94 μM, respectively. Tryptophan metabolism was monitored using metabolomics profiling techniques. Hexaconazole and its enantiomers caused the down-regulation of tryptophan levels and the up-regulation of kynurenine (KYN) levels, suggesting a role for hexaconazole in the activation of the KYN pathway and providing information for the mechanism of its toxicity.

Abstract
Chiral PCBs, such as PCB 95, are developmental neurotoxicants that undergo atropisomeric enrichment in nonpregnant adult mice. Because pregnancy is associated with changes in hepatic cytochrome P450 enzyme activity as well as lipid disposition and metabolism, this study investigates the effect of pregnancy on the maternal disposition of chiral PCBs. Female C57BL/6 mice (8 weeks old) were dosed daily beginning 2 weeks prior to conception and continuing throughout gestation and lactation (56 days total) with racemic PCB 95 (0, 0.1, 1.0, or 6.0 mg/kg body wt/day) in peanut butter. Levels and chiral signatures of PCB 95 and its hydroxylated metabolites (OH-PCBs) were determined in adipose, blood, brain, and liver. Tissue levels of PCB 95 increased 4- to 12-fold with increasing dose, with considerable enrichment of the second eluting atropisomer in all tissues (EF range 0.11 to 0.26). OH-PCBs displayed atropisomeric enrichment in blood and liver but were not detected in adipose and brain. Levels of PCB 95 and its metabolites were 2- to 11-fold lower in pregnant dams relative to those previously reported in nonpregnant age-matched female mice; however, PCB 95 and OH-PCB profiles and chiral signatures were similar between both studies. In contrast, human brain samples contained racemic PCB 95 residues (EF = 0.50). These results demonstrate that changes in cytochrome P450 enzyme activity and lipid disposition during pregnancy reduce the PCB body burden in dams but do not affect metabolite profiles or chiral signatures. The differences in chiral signatures between mice and humans suggest species-specific differences in atropisomeric disposition, the toxicological significance of which remains to be determined.

Abstract
Myclobutanil, (RS)-2-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-(1H-1, 2, 4-triazol-1-ylmethyl) hexanenitrile is a widely used triazole fungicide. In this study, enantioselective metabolism and cytotoxicity were investigated in rat hepatocytes by chiral HPLC-MS/MS and the methyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay, respectively. Furthermore, tryptophan metabolism disturbance in rat hepatocytes after myclobutanil exposure was also evaluated by target metabolomics method. The half-life (t1/2) of (+)-myclobutanil was 10.66 h, whereas that for (-)-myclobutanil was 15.07 h. Such results indicated that the metabolic process of myclobutanil in rat hepatocytes was enantioselective with an enrichment of (-)-myclobutanil. For the cytotoxicity research, the calculated EC50 (12 h) values for rac-myclobutanil, (+)- and (-)-myclobutanil were 123.65, 150.65 and 152.60 µM, respectively. The results of tryptophan metabolites profiling showed that the levels of kynurenine (KYN) and XA were both up-regulated compared to the control, suggesting the activation effect of the KYN pathway by myclobutanil and its enantiomers which may provide an important insight into its toxicity mechanism. The data presented here could be useful for the environmental hazard assessment of myclobutanil.
