Abstract
BACKGROUND Mechanisms for how environmental chemicals might influence pain has received little attention. Epidemiological studies suggest that environmental factors such as pollutants might play a role in migraine prevalence. Potential targets for pollutants are the transient receptor potential (TRP) channels ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) and vanilloid 1 (TRPV1), which on activation release pain-inducing neuropeptide calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP). OBJECTIVE In this study, we aimed to examine the hypothesis that environmental pollutants via TRP channel signaling and subsequent CGRP release trigger migraine signaling and pain. METHODS A calcium imaging-based screen of environmental chemicals was used to investigate activation of migraine pain-associated TRP channels TRPA1 and TRPV1. Based on this screen, whole-cell patch clamp and in silico docking were performed for the pesticide pentachlorophenol (PCP) as proof of concept. Subsequently, PCP-mediated release of CGRP and vasodilatory responses of cerebral arteries were investigated. Finally, we tested whether PCP could induce a TRPA1-dependent induction of cutaneous hypersensitivity in vivo in mice as a model of migraine-like pain. RESULTS A total of 16 out of the 52 screened environmental chemicals activated TRPA1 at 10 or 100 μ M . None of the investigated compounds activated TRPV1. Using PCP as a model of chemical interaction with TRPA1, in silico molecular modeling suggested that PCP is stabilized in a lipid-binding pocket of TRPA1 in comparison with TRPV1. In vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo experiments showed that PCP induced calcium influx in neurons and resulted in a TRPA1-dependent CGRP release from the brainstem and dilation of cerebral arteries. In a mouse model of migraine-like pain, PCP induced a TRPA1-dependent increased pain response (N total = 144 ). DISCUSSION Here we show that multiple environmental pollutants interact with the TRPA1-CGRP migraine pain pathway. The data provide valuable insights into how environmental chemicals can interact with neurobiology and provide a potential mechanism for putative increases in migraine prevalence over the last decades. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP12413.

Redox-active quinones induces genome-wide DNA methylation changes by an iron-mediated and Tet-dependent mechanism. Nucleic Acids Res 2014; 42:1593-605. [PMID: 24214992 PMCID: PMC3919571 DOI: 10.1093/nar/gkt1090] [Citation(s) in RCA: 96] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2013] [Revised: 10/12/2013] [Accepted: 10/16/2013] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
DNA methylation has been proven to be a critical epigenetic mark important for various cellular processes. Here, we report that redox-active quinones, a ubiquitous class of chemicals found in natural products, cancer therapeutics and environment, stimulate the conversion of 5 mC to 5 hmC in vivo, and increase 5 hmC in 5751 genes in cells. 5 hmC increase is associated with significantly altered gene expression of 3414 genes. Interestingly, in quinone-treated cells, labile iron-sensitive protein ferritin light chain showed a significant increase at both mRNA and protein levels indicating a role of iron regulation in stimulating Tet-mediated 5 mC oxidation. Consistently, the deprivation of cellular labile iron using specific chelator blocked the 5 hmC increase, and a delivery of labile iron increased the 5 hmC level. Moreover, both Tet1/Tet2 knockout and dimethyloxalylglycine-induced Tet inhibition diminished the 5 hmC increase. These results suggest an iron-regulated Tet-dependent DNA demethylation mechanism mediated by redox-active biomolecules.
