The ABCG2 protein in vitro transports the xenobiotic thiabendazole and increases the appearance of its residues in milk. ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY AND PHARMACOLOGY 2024; 107:104421. [PMID: 38493880 DOI: 10.1016/j.etap.2024.104421] [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: 01/25/2024] [Revised: 03/13/2024] [Accepted: 03/15/2024] [Indexed: 03/19/2024]
Abstract
Thiabendazole (TBZ) is a broad-spectrum anthelmintic and fungicide used in humans, animals, and agricultural commodities. TBZ residues are present in crops and animal products, including milk, posing a risk to food safety and public health. ABCG2 is a membrane transporter which affects bioavailability and milk secretion of xenobiotics. Therefore, the aim of this work was to characterize the role of ABCG2 in the in vitro transport and secretion into milk of 5-hydroxythiabendazole (5OH-TBZ), the main TBZ metabolite. Using MDCK-II polarized cells transduced with several species variants of ABCG2, we first demonstrated that 5OH-TBZ is efficiently in vitro transported by ABCG2. Subsequently, using Abcg2 knockout mice, we demonstrated that 5OH-TBZ secretion into milk was affected by Abcg2, with a more than 2-fold higher milk concentration and milk to plasma ratio in wild-type mice compared to their Abcg2-/- counterpart.

Transcriptomic characterization of bovine primary cultured hepatocytes; a cross-comparison with a bovine liver and the Madin-Darby bovine kidney cells. Res Vet Sci 2017; 113:40-49. [PMID: 28863307 DOI: 10.1016/j.rvsc.2017.08.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2017] [Revised: 07/07/2017] [Accepted: 08/07/2017] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
Bovine primary cultured hepatocytes (CHs) are widely used in vitro models for liver toxicity testing. However, little is known about their whole-transcriptome profile and its resemblance to the normal liver tissue. In the present study, we profiled - by microarray - the whole-transcriptome of bovine CHs (n=4) and compared it with the transcriptomic landscape of control liver samples (n=8), as well the Madin-Darby bovine kidney (MDBK) cells (n=4). Compared with liver tissue, the bovine CHs relatively expressed (fold change >2, P<0.05) about 2155 and 2073 transcripts at a lower and higher abundance, respectively. Of those expressed at a lower abundance, many were drug biotransformation enzyme-coding genes, such as the cytochrome P450 family (CYPs), sulfotransferases, methyltransferases, and glutathione S-transferases. Also, several drug transporters and solute carriers were expressed at a lower abundance in bovine CHs. 'Drug metabolism', 'PPAR signaling', and 'metabolism of xenobiotics by CYPs' were among the most negatively-enriched pathways in bovine CHs compared with liver. A qPCR cross-validation using 8 selected genes evidenced a high correlation (r=0.95, P=0.001) with the corresponding microarray results. Although from a kidney origin, and albeit to a lower extent compared to bovine CHs, the MDBK cells showed a basal expression of many CYP-coding genes. Our study provides a whole-transcriptome-based evidence for the bovine CHs and hepatic tissue resemblance. Overall, the bovine CHs' transcriptomic profile might render it unreliable as an in vitro model to study drug metabolism.

Abstract
Many pharmaceutical drugs cause hepatotoxicity in humans leading to severe liver diseases, representing a serious public health issue. This study investigates the ability of the anthelmintic and antifungal drug thiabendazole to cause cell death by apoptosis and metabolic changes in primary cultures of rat hepatocytes. Thiabendazole (200-500 μM) induced apoptosis in hepatocytes after 1 to 24h, causing loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, cytochrome c release from mitochondria, Fas-associated death domain (FADD) translocation from the cytosol to membranes, and activation of caspases-3, -8 and -9. Thus, thiabendazole activated both the mitochondrial and death receptor pathways of apoptosis. Under these conditions, cell death by necrosis was not detected following exposure to thiabendazole (100-500 μM) for 24-48 h, measured by lactate dehydrogenase release and propidium iodide uptake. Furthermore, thiabendazole increased activities of cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoenzymes CYP1A and CYP2B after 24 and 48 h, determined by 7-ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase (EROD) and 7-pentoxyresorufin-O-dealkylase (PROD) activities, respectively. An important finding is that thiabendazole can eliminate hepatocytes by apoptosis, which could be a sensitive marker for hepatic damage and cell death. This study improves understanding of the mode of cell death induced by thiabendazole, which is important given that humans and animals are exposed to this compound as a pharmaceutical agent and in an environmental context.

Abstract
Benzimidazoles are anthelmintic agents widely used in the treatment of parasitic infections in a range of species and as fungicidal agents in the control of spoilage of crops during storage and transport. In this paper, the more important benzimidazoles are introduced and their pharmacological effects and physiochemical properties discussed. The metabolism of these drugs is described relating to the occurrence and persistence of residues in biological matrices, providing information for selection of suitable matrices and target residues for testing. Methods for determination of benzimidazoles are reviewed for a range of biological matrices. The importance of selecting suitable extraction and clean-up procedures is discussed, along with the difficulties encountered in adapting single residue methods to multi-residue methods. The importance of suitable detection systems for determination of benzimidazoles, namely, screening, HPLC, GC and confirmatory methods is described in detail. The future for benzimidazole residue analysis is discussed, focusing on selection of appropriate residues for screening methods and protocols for confirmation of benzimidazole residues.

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
The effect of thiabendazole (TB) on some rat hepatic xenobiotic metabolising enzymes has been investigated. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were fed control diet or diets containing 102-5188 ppm TB for 28 days. As a positive control for induction of hepatic xenobiotic metabolism, rats were also fed diets containing 1457 and 10,155 ppm butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT). Treatment with TB and BHT resulted in dose-dependent increases in relative liver weight. TB was found to be a mixed inducer of cytochrome P450 (CYP) forms in the CYP1A and CYP2B subfamilies. The administration of high doses of TB resulted in the induction of 7-ethoxyresorufin O-deethylase and 7-pentoxyresorufin O-depentylase activities, CYP1A1, CYP1A2, CYP2B1 and CYP2B1/2 mRNA levels and CYP1A2 and CYP2B1/2 apoprotein levels. In contrast, BHT was a CYP2B form inducer, increasing 7-pentoxyresorufin O-depentylase activity, CYP2B1 and CYP2B1/2 mRNA levels and CYP2B1/2 apoprotein levels. Both TB and BHT induced GSH S-transferase activities towards a range of substrates. In addition, TB and BHT markedly induced GSTP1 mRNA levels, but had only a small effect on GSTT1 mRNA levels. In summary, these results demonstrate that TB induces both phase I and II xenobiotic metabolising enzymes in rat liver.

Abstract
Tissue-bound residues of thiabendazole (TBZ), a veterinary anthelmintic and postharvest fungicide, are formed when this compound is incubated with rabbit hepatocytes or administered to mice or pigs. Several pretreatment steps were investigated for removing free TBZ and metabolites prior to the release of bound residues, and three procedures were evaluated for the release of bound residues from solvent-extracted rabbit hepatocytes: incubation under acidic conditions, enzymatic action using cystathionine beta-lyase, and Raney nickel desulfurization. Immunoaffinity chromatography utilizes monoclonal antibodies capable of binding TBZ or its 5-hydroxy metabolite enabled isolation of crossreactive residue fractions. Residues released from incurred pig liver and isolated by immunoaffinity included TBZ, as determined by HPLC with photodiode array detection. The methodology described should facilitate food safety assessments of TBZ.

Abstract
Drug-specific monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) were produced against the very small drug hapten (162.15 Da), 5-benzimidazolecarboxylic acid, an analogue of 2-(4-Thiazolyl)benzimidazole (TBZ) but lacking the thiol group. TBZ is widely used as a broad-spectrum anthelmintic in various animal species and humans and also as a food preservative and agricultural fungicide. The anti-5-benzimidazolecarboxylic acid antibodies produced have potential use for extraction and/or detection of protein-bound residue forms of TBZ. Three in vivo immunisation regimes (with combinations of two related small drug haptens and two different adjuvants/carrier molecules) and an in vitro immunisation procedure using a combination of three related unconjugated small drug haptens were investigated. Specificity for the hapten immunogen/s was initially determined using two different ELISA procedures. BIACORE analysis, in conjunction with drug binding inhibition studies, was used to confirm the specificity of a small number of selected clones. In vivo immunisation with a drug molecule conjugated to a lipopeptide/T-cell epitope, which acts both as a carrier molecule and an adjuvant was the most useful of the methods tested for the production of specific MAbs to a typically very small hapten with low immunogenic properties.

Abstract
Fenbendazole residues in bovine milk were analyzed by ELISAs using two monoclonal antibodies. One monoclonal antibody (MAb 587) bound the major benzimidazole anthelmintic drugs, including fenbendazole, oxfendazole, and fenbendazole sulfone. The other (MAb 591) was more specific for fenbendazole, with 13% cross-reactivity with the sulfone and no significant binding to the sulfoxide metabolite. The limit of detection of the ELISA method in the milk matrix was 7 ppb for MAb 587 and 3 ppb for MAb 591. Fenbendazole was administered in feed, drench, and paste form to three groups of dairy cattle. Milk was collected immediately before dosing and then every 12 h for 5 days. The ELISA indicated that residue levels varied widely among individual cows in each group. Fenbendazole levels peaked at approximately 12-24 h and declined rapidly thereafter. Metabolites were detected at much higher levels than the parent compound, peaked at approximately 24-36 h, and declined gradually. Residue levels were undetectable by 72 h. The ELISA data correlated well with the total residues determined by chromatographic analysis, but the use of the two separate ELISAs did not afford an advantage over ELISA with the single, broadly reactive MAb 587. The ELISA method could be used to flag high-residue samples in on-site monitoring of fenbendazole in milk and is a potential tool for studying drug pharmacokinetics.

Abstract
In the present study, time-dependent variations of drug-metabolising enzyme activities (DMEs) in primary cultures of rabbit hepatocytes, a species of economic importance in Mediterranean countries, were investigated. Cross-bred rabbits were anesthetised and their livers perfused in situ by a two-step collagenase technique; cells suspensions were filtered, seeded in collagen-coated dishes and cultivated at 37 degrees C in a controlled atmosphere for 24 and 72 h. Cytochrome P450 and b(5) contents as well as the catalytic activity of some P450-dependent monooxygenases were measured in subcellular fractions obtained by differential ultracentrifugation; microsomal proteins were also subjected to immunoblotting, using antibodies to rat P4501A, 2B, 2E1 and 3A isoforms. The activity of some microsomal hydrolytic enzymes was also determined. As regards conjugative enzymes, glutathione content and activities of glutathione S-transferase, uridindiphosphoglucuronosyl-transferase, acetyl-transferase and 1,2-epoxibuthane glutathione transferase were assayed. An overall reduction of the catalytic activity was observed 72 h after plating, reaching in certain instances the level of statistical significance. On the whole, our data confirm those previously reported with hepatocytes obtained from other species; however, the evidence that DMEs were still measurable after 72 h supports the usefulness of this in vitro method for drug metabolism studies in the rabbit as well.

Abstract
Thiabendazole (TBZ), an anthelmintic and fungicide benzimidazole, was recently demonstrated to be extensively metabolized by cytochrome P450 (CYP) 1A2 in man and rabbit, yielding 5-hydroxythiabendazole (5OH-TBZ), the major metabolite furtherly conjugated, and two minor unidentified metabolites (M1 and M2). In this study, exposure of rabbit and human cells to 14C-TBZ was also shown to be associated with the appearance of radioactivity irreversibly bound to proteins. The nature of CYP isoforms involved in this covalent binding was investigated by using cultured rabbit hepatocytes treated or not with various CYP inducers (CYP1A1/2 by beta-naphthoflavone, CYP2B4 by phenobarbital, CYP3A6 by rifampicine, CYP4A by clofibrate) and human liver and bronchial CYP-expressing cells. The covalent binding to proteins was particularly increased in beta-naphthoflavone-treated rabbit cells (2- to 4-fold over control) and human cells expressing CYP1A2 (22- to 42-fold over control). Thus, CYP1A2 is a major isoenzyme involved in the formation of TBZ-derived residues bound to protein. Furthermore, according to the good correlation between covalent binding and M1 or 5OH-TBZ production, TBZ would be firstly metabolized to 5OH-TBZ and subsequently converted to a chemically reactive metabolic intermediate binding to proteins. This metabolic activation could take place preferentially in liver and lung, the main biotransformation organs, rather than in intestines where TBZ was shown to be not metabolized. Moreover, TBZ was rapidly transported by passive diffusion through the human intestinal cells by comparison with the protein-bound residues which were not able to cross the intestinal barrier. Consequently, the absence of toxicity measured in intestines could be related to the low degree of TBZ metabolism and the lack of absorption of protein adducts. Nevertheless, caution is necessary in the use of TBZ concurrently with other drugs able to regulate CYP1A2, particularly in respect to liver and lung tissues, recognised as sites of covalent-binding.
