Agrochemicals and other xenobiotics are metabolized by xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes (XMEs) to products that may be more or less toxic than the parent chemical. In this regard, phase-I XMEs such as cytochrome P450s (CYPs) are of primary importance. Interactions at the level of metabolism may take place via either inhibition or induction of XMEs. Such interactions have often been investigated, in vitro, in experimental animals, using subcellular fractions such as liver microsomes, but seldom in humans or at the level of individual XME isoforms. The authors have been investigating the metabolism of a number of agrochemicals by human liver microsomes and recombinant CYP isoforms and have recently embarked on studies of the induction of XMEs in human hepatocytes. The insecticides chlorpyrifos, carbaryl, carbofuran and fipronil, as well as the repellant DEET, are all extensively metabolized by human liver microsomes and, although a number of CYP isoforms may be involved, CYP2B6 and CYP3A4 are usually the most important. Permethrin is hydrolyzed by esterase(s) present in both human liver microsomes and cytosol. A number of metabolic interactions have been observed. Chlorpyrifos and other phosphorothioates are potent inhibitors of the CYP-dependent metabolism of both endogenous substrates, such as testosterone and estradiol, and exogenous substrates, such as carbaryl, presumably as a result of the interaction of highly reactive sulfur, released during the oxidative desulfuration reaction, with the heme iron of CYP. The hydrolysis of permethrin in human liver can be inhibited by chlorpyrifos oxon and by carbaryl. Fipronil can inhibit testosterone metabolism by CYP3A4 and is an effective inducer of CYP isoforms in human hepatocytes.  相似文献

Through the use of a number of bioconversion experiments we demonstrated that P450 proteins (CYP1A9 and CYP1C1) from Japanese eel (Anguilla japonica) metabolized a number of herbicides and the drug phenacetin. We performed bioconversion experiments in which substrates were added directly to incubation medium. The resulting metabolites were extracted and analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography. Proteins CYP1A9 and CYP1C1 metabolized 50 nmol of the drug phenacetin to yield 12.1 and 1.1 nmol of product (acetaminophen), respectively. Further incubation of CYP1A9 with 50 nmol of the herbicides chlorotoluron, diuron, linuron, simazine, or atrazine yielded 16.5, 18.5, 7.3, 1.6, or 0.8 nmol of product, respectively. CYP1C1 also metabolized linuron, diuron, and simazine yield 5.4, 4.6, or 0.7 nmol of product, respectively. Next, polyclonal antibody was isolated by immunizing with two conjugated-peptides (amino acid residues 272–290 and 294–310) of CYP1A9. This antibody did not recognize human CYP1A2 or CYP1C1. Western blotting using the antibody revealed one band in the livers of Japanese eel and tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus). Theses results suggest that CYP1A9 and CYP1C1 metabolize herbicides, and that CYP1A9 is an useful biomarker of contamination when detected with this antibody.  相似文献

Transgenic potato and rice plants were generated by the introduction of human P450 species, CYP1A1, CYP2B6, CYP2C9 and CYP2C19, which metabolized a number of herbicides, insecticides and industrial chemicals. The transgenic potato plant T1977 co-expressing CYP1A1, CYP2B6 and CYP2C19 genes showed remarkable cross-resistance to several herbicides with different structures and modes of action due to metabolism of these herbicides by the P450 species expressed. The transgenic rice plant 2C9-57R2 expressing CYP2C9 gene showed resistance to sulfonylureas, and the transgenic rice plant 2C19-12R1 expressing CYP2C19 gene showed cross-resistance to certain herbicides with different structures and modes of action. These transgenic plants appear to be useful for herbicide resistance as well as phytoremediation of environmental contaminants.  相似文献

Organochlorine residues and shell thicknesses were surveyed in eggs of the clapper rail (Rallus longirostris), purple gallinule (Porphyrula martinica), common gallinule (Gallinula chloropas), and limpkin (Aramus guarauna) from the eastern and southern United States. Clapper rail eggs were collected during 1972-73 in New Jersey, Virginia, and South Carolina. During 1973-74, gallinule eggs were collected in Florida, South Carolina, and Louisiana, and limpkin eggs were collected in Florida. Egg contents were analyzed for residues of organochlorine pesticides, including DDT, TDE, DDE, dieldrin, mirex, heptachlor epoxide, oxychlordane, cis-chlordane (and/or trans-nonachlor), cis-nonachlor, hexachlorobenzene (HCB), toxaphene, and endrin, and for polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). Shell thicknesses of recent eggs of these species were compared with archival eggs that had been collected before 1947. With the exception of the limpkin, the majority of eggs analyzed contained residues of p,p'-DDE and PCBs. Geometric means ranged from 0.10 ppm to 1.3 ppm. Small amounts (less than 1.0 ppm) of mirex, dieldrin, cis-chlordane (and/or trans-nonachlor), TDE, and DDT were detected in a few eggs. No evidence of eggshell thinning was found for any of the species studied. DDE residues in clapper rail eggs were higher in New Jersey and Virginia than in South Carolina.  相似文献

于2011年采集北京、山东和湖南三地的烟粉虱,进行B、Q隐种鉴定,并测定4种杀虫剂的抗药性,同时通过荧光定量PCR分析CYP4v2和CYP6CX1两个基因的mRNA水平的表达量。结果表明,北京、湖南和长沙烟粉虱均为Q隐种。抗药性监测表明,北京和湖南种群对阿维菌素敏感,山东种群抗性水平较低,而对烟碱类药剂噻虫嗪出现不同程度的抗药性,其中湖南地区烟粉虱对噻虫嗪的抗药性达到49.08倍的高抗水平,北京和山东地区也达到中抗水平。另外,这3个地区的种群对毒死蜱和联苯菊酯抗性水平都较低。通过qRT-PCR分析三地的CYP4v2和CYP6CX1基因表达量,发现相对于敏感种群CYP4v2基因在北京、山东和湖南3个地理种群中分别过量表达3.85倍、19.57倍和10.78倍,而CYP6CX1基因在北京种群中过量表达20.55倍。结果提示田间烟粉虱的细胞色素P450基因CYP4v2和CYP6CX1过量表达可能会是烟粉虱抗药性的形成机制之一。  相似文献

Cytochrome P450 proteins play important roles in plant herbicide selectivity. Here, we demonstrate metabolism of the herbicide pelargonic acid by CYP72A18, a novel cytochrome P450 isolated from the rice Oryza sativa L. cv. Nipponbare. The CYP72A18 cDNA was cloned from rice and heterologously expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae AH22 cells from the alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH1) promoter. Microsomes isolated from recombinant yeast cells contained the CYP72A18, which was found to catalyze the (ω-1)-hydroxylation of the herbicide pelargonic acid. We also show that (ω-1)-hydroxypelargonic acid has reduced herbicide activity against rice seedlings. Based on these results, we suggest that CYP72A18 participates in the detoxification of the herbicide pelargonic acid in rice plants.  相似文献

寄生蜂是重要的天敌昆虫,被广泛应用于生物防治,但在实际生产应用中面临诸多问题,如环境适应性和耐药性问题。细胞色素P450是真核生物中广泛存在的超基因家族酶系,参与农药、植物次生代谢物及环境有害物质等的代谢,同时也参与昆虫体内多种内源性化合物的合成与代谢。本文通过对植食性榕小蜂和9种寄生蜂基因组数据的生物信息学分析,共获得615个P450基因,分析表明不同寄生蜂P450基因家族的差异主要发生在CYP3和CYP4簇,而CYP2和Mito簇相对保守;相较于外寄生蜂,内寄生蜂的P450超基因家族有明显的收缩现象;此外,发现了2个在寄生蜂中1:1:1高度保守的P450基因,CYP18和CYP314,以及茧蜂特有的CYP304基因和内寄生蜂特有的CYP28基因。本研究从基因组水平系统地分析了寄生蜂P450超基因家族的进化,为寄生蜂的遗传改良和规模化饲养等提供理论基础。  相似文献

Sulfoxaflor [N-[methyloxido[1-[6-(trifluoromethyl)-3-pyridinyl]ethyl]-λ4-sulfanylidene] cyanamide] is in development as the first product from the new sulfoximine class of insect control agents. Highly effective against a variety of sap-feeding pest insects, available data indicate no cross-resistance to sulfoxaflor in pest insect strains that exhibit high levels of resistance to neonicotinoids and other insecticides. In vitro studies of the cytochrome P450 monooxygenase CYP6G1 from Drosophila melanogaster, expressed in a Drosophila cell line, show very high levels of metabolism for a variety of neonicotinoids, but not for sulfoxaflor and its chloropyridine-analog. A sulfoxaflor analog with nitrogen in place of the carbon in the bridge between the pyridine and sulfoximine moiety shows a modest degree of metabolism. In silico homology modeling of the CYP6G1 with the sulfoximines and neonicotinoids suggests that steric effects may limit interactions of the sulfoximines with the reactive heme-oxo complex. A distinct relationship was identified for the summed Hückel charges and the degree of metabolism observed. These observations help explain the lack of sulfoxaflor metabolism by CYP6G1, and in turn provide a basis for the lack of cross-resistance to sulfoxaflor in insecticide resistant strains of pest insects.  相似文献

Atrazine (ATZ) metabolism by human liver microsomes (HLM), cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoforms, and human liver (HL) S9 fractions, was investigated using HPLC/PDA and LC/MS/MS. CYP-dependent metabolites from pooled HLM are desethylatrazine (DEA), desisopropylatrazine (DIA), 1-hydroxyisopropylatrazine (HIATZ), and 2-hydroxyethyl atrazine (HEATZ). DEA and DIA were major metabolites in pooled HLM. CYP1A2 and 2C19, respectively, were major isoforms for DEA and DIA production. CYP3A4, while less active, is generally at high concentrations, produces both DEA and DIA and is significant. The percent total normalized rates (%TNR) for CYP1A2 and 3A4 in pooled HLM were 63% and 24% for DEA, and 35% and 56% for DIA production. Single donor HLM samples, showed correlations for CYP1A2 (r = 0.92) and 3A4 (r = 0.81) for DEA and DIA production, while variations in production of DEA and DIA were 8.5- and 6.0-fold, respectively. Pooled S9 fractions also mediate glutathione conjugation of atrazine, DEA and DIA.  相似文献

Elevated oxidative detoxification is a major mechanism responsible for pyrethroid resistance in Helicoverpa armigera from Asia. Constitutive overexpression of CYP9A12 and CYP9A14 was associated with pyrethroid resistance in the YGF strain of H. armigera. CYP9A12 and CYP9A14 were functionally expressed in the W(R) strain of yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) transformed with a plasmid shuttle vector pYES2. The cell lysates prepared from yeast transformed with CYP9A12 and CYP9A14, respectively, exhibited considerable O-demethylation activities against two model substrates p-nitroanisole (0.59 and 0.42 nmol p-nitrophenol min−1 mg protein−1) and methoxyresorufin (2.98 and 5.41 pmol resorufin min−1 mg protein−1), and clearance activity against the pyrethroid esfenvalerate (8.18 and 4.29 pmol esfenvalerate min−1 mg protein−1). These results provide important evidence on the role of CYP9A12 and CYP9A14 in conferring pyrethroid resistance in H. armigera, and also demonstrate that the yeast expression system can provide necessary redox environment for insect P450s to metabolize xenobiotics.  相似文献

In toxicological studies hepatocytes offer an excellent alternative to whole-animal experiments, provided their metabolic competence has been established. We have compared Phase 1 and 2 metabolism in rat, mouse, chicken and ox liver microsomes and cytosol with freshly isolated hepatocytes. The relative amounts of total cytochrome P450 in microsomes and hepatocytes were equivalent. Rat liver had the highest P450 content while chicken liver had the lowest content (148·2(±75·7) and 20·6(±11·5) pmol mg-1 hepatocellular protein, respectively). The metabolism of testosterone was assessed to determine selective cytochrome P450 isoenzyme activities. Only two metabolite products were common to all four species, namely 6β-hydroxytestosterone (6β-OHT) and androstenedione (ASD), which co-eluted with 6-dehydrotestosterone (6DHT). 16α-OHT was present in all incubations except for ox microsomes. The rate of metabolism of testosterone was generally lower in microsomes than hepatocytes, with the exception of the ox, but the pattern and quantity of metabolite formation was similar. The quantity of total products formed was 15- to 27-fold higher in rat and mouse livers than in chicken or ox. The major product formed in freshly isolated hepatocytes from mice and chickens was ASD/6DHT which accounted for 60% and 76% of the total metabolites, respectively. ASD/6DHT formation accounted for only 33% and 17% of the total metabolites formed by rat and ox hepatocytes, respectively. 2α-OHT production occurred in rat and mouse hepatocytes (14% of the total metabolites in rat and 7% in mouse hepatocytes) but was lacking in chicken or ox cells. The stability of P450 isoforms in culture was species-dependent. Rat and mouse hepatocyte cultures lost 54% and 31% of their initial P450 content after 72 h, while there was no loss in chicken hepatocytes over the same period. There was a good correlation between the relative glutathione S-transferase (GST) activities in cytosol and freshly isolated hepatocytes. Mouse liver exhibited highest GST activity (664·2(±203·5)) compared with rat, chicken or ox (320·4(±64·0), 341·5(±13·9) and 256·3(±109·9) nmol min-1 mg-1 cytosolic protein, respectively). © 1997 SCI.  相似文献

ABSTRACT We identified the cytochrome P450 sterol 14alpha-demethylase (CYP51A1) gene from Venturia inaequalis and optional insertions located upstream from CYP51A1 and evaluated their potential role in conferring resistance to the sterol demethylation-inhibitor (DMI) fungicide my-clobutanil. The CYP51A1 gene was completely sequenced from one my-clobutanil sensitive (S) and two myclobutanil-resistant (R) strains. No nucleotide variation was found when the three sequences were aligned. Allele-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis indicated that a previously described single base pair mutation that correlated with resistance to DMI fungicides in strains of other filamentous fungi was absent in 19 S and 32 R strains of V. inaequalis from Michigan and elsewhere. The sequencing results and PCR analyses suggest that resistance in these strains was not due to a mutation in the sterol demethylase target site for DMI fungicides. Expression of CYP51A1 was determined for strains from an orchard that had never been sprayed with DMI fungicides (baseline orchard), and the data provided a reference for evaluating the expression of strains collected from a research orchard and from three commercial Michigan apple orchards with a long history of DMI use and a high frequency of R strains. Overexpression of CYP51A1 was significantly higher in 9 of 11 R strains from the research orchard than in S strains from the baseline orchard. The high expression was correlated with the presence of a 553-bp insertion located upstream of CYP51A1. Overexpression of the CYP51A1 gene was also detected in eight of eight, five of nine, and nine of nine R strains from three commercial orchards, but the insertion was not detected in the majority of these strains. The results suggest that overexpression of the target-site CYP51A1 gene is an important mechanism of resistance in some field resistant strains of V. inaequalis, but other mechanisms of resistance also appear to exist.  相似文献

Ecotoxicity tests are performed on vertebrates and invertebrates for the environmental risk assessment of pesticides and other chemicals and for a variety of ecotoxicological studies in the laboratory and in the field. Existing practices and strategies in ecotoxicity testing are reviewed, including an account of current requirements of the European Commission for the testing of pesticides and the recent REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restrictions of Chemicals) proposals for industrial chemicals. Criticisms of existing practices have been made on both scientific and ethical grounds, and these are considered before dealing with the question of possible alternative methods and strategies both for environmental risk assessment and for ecotoxicological studies more generally. New approaches from an ecological point of view are compared with recent developments in laboratory-based methods such as toxicity tests, biomarker assays and bioassays. With regard to the development of new strategies for risk assessment, it is suggested that full consideration should be given to the findings of earlier long-term studies of pollution, which identified mechanisms of action by which environmental chemicals can cause natural populations to decline. Neurotoxicity and endocrine disruption are two cases in point, and biomarker assays for them could have an important role in testing new chemicals suspected of having these properties. In a concluding discussion, possible ways of improving testing protocols are discussed, having regard for current issues in the field of environmental risk assessment as exemplified by the debate over the REACH proposals. The importance of flexibility and the roles of ecologists and ecotoxicologists are stressed in the context of environmental risk assessment.  相似文献

Plant cell cultures in which the appropriate P450 cDNA is introduced are expected to metabolise certain pesticides in large quantities. Two species of human P450 (CYP1A1 and CYP1A2) were introduced into tobacco cells (Nicotiana tabacum L) by Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. The transgenic plant cell cultures were selected by combination of kanamycin-resistance, 7-ethoxycoumarin O-de-ethylase activity, PCR and Western blot analysis. For metabolism studies, 14C-labelled atrazine was used as a model substance. The metabolites de-ethylatrazine and de-isopropylatrazine were found in the control culture as well as in the transgenic culture, whereas the non-phytotoxic metabolite de-ethyl-de-isopropylatrazine was found only in the transgenic cell cultures. The results showed that both foreign enzymes CYP1A1 and CYP1A2 catalyse N-dealkylation of atrazine. However, CYP1A2 exhibited a higher conversion rate than CYP1A1. In a time-course study the enzyme CYP1A2 catalysed predominantly N-de-ethylation followed by de-isopropylation. The extent of metabolism was considerably higher than in non-transformed cell cultures. The transgenic cell cultures can therefore be suitable tools for the production of large quantities of primary oxidised pesticide metabolites.  相似文献

The main degradation products formed from the dicarboximidic fungicides chlozolinate, vinclozolin and procymidone in wine have been isolated and identified using spectroscopic and chromatographic methods. The fungicides were added to wine after fermentation. Chlozolinate underwent a rapid hydrolytic loss of the ethoxy-carbonyl substituent, to give an oxazolidine that underwent hydrolytic cleavage to give 3′,5′-dichloro-2-hydroxypropanilide. The oxazolidine ring of vinclozolin underwent a similar hydrolysis to give the corresponding anilide 3′,5′-dichloro-2-hydroxy-2-methylbut-3-enanilide. Both these anilides were stable in wine for 150 days. A different degradation behaviour was observed with procymidone and led to the formation of 3,5-dichloroaniline (3,5-DCA), which, in turn, broke down but the derivatives could not be isolated. After consideration of the different behaviours of the fungicides on degradation in wine and in aqueous ethanol at pH4, together with their kinetic data, breakdown pathways are proposed.  相似文献
