Abstract
Tetrachlorobisphenol A (TCBPA) can promote intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation. However, limited attention has been given to mechanisms underlying TCBPA exposure-associated ROS accumulation. Here, such mechanisms were explored in the simple eukaryotic model organism Saccharomyces cerevisiae exposed to multiple concentrations of TCBPA. Addition of diphenyleneiodonium, a specific inhibitor of NADPH oxidase, blocked TCBPA treatment-associated intracellular ROS accumulation. NADPH oxidase can be activated by calcineurin, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), and tyrosine kinase. Therefore, corresponding specific inhibition respectively on these three kinases was performed and results suggested that the Ca2+ signaling pathway, MAPK pathway, and tyrosine kinase pathway all contributed to the TCBPA exposure-associated intracellular ROS accumulation. In addition, TCBPA exposure-associated up-regulation of genes involved in ROS production and down-regulation of catalase promoted ROS accumulation in S. cerevisiae. To sum up, our current results provide insights into the understanding of TCBPA exposure-associated ROS accumulation.
