Abstract
In recent decades, the toxicity of chiral pesticides to non-target organisms has attracted increasing attention. Cellular metabolic disorders are essential sensitive molecular initiating event for toxicological effects. BF is a typical chiral pesticide, and the liver is the main organ for BF accumulation. This study aimed to investigate the potential molecular mechanism of BF enantiomers' different toxic effects on L02 by a non-targeted metabolomic approach. Results revealed that the BF enantiomers exhibited different metabolic responses. In total, 51 and 36 differential metabolites were perturbed by 1S-cis-BF and 1R-cis-BF at the value of variable importance, respectively. When L02 were exposed to 1R-cis-BF, the significantly disturbed metabolic pathways were nicotinate and nicotinamide metabolism and pyrimidine metabolism. By comparison, more significantly perturbed metabolic pathways were received when the L02 were exposed to 1S-cis-BF, including glycine, serine and threonine metabolism, nicotinate and nicotinamide metabolism, arginine and proline metabolism, cysteine and methionine metabolism, glycerolipid metabolism, histidine metabolism, pyrimidine metabolism, amino sugar and nucleotide sugar metabolism and arginine biosynthesis. The results offer a new perspective in understanding the role of selective cytotoxicity of BF enantiomers, and help to evaluate the risk to human health at the enantiomeric level.

Wang J, Sun H, Yang H, Yang R, Zhu X, Guo S, Huang Y, Xu Y, Li C, Tu J, Sun C. Dessecting the toxicological profile of polysorbate 80 (PS80): comparative analysis of constituent variability and biological impact using a zebrafish model. Eur J Pharm Sci 2024; 198:106796. [PMID: 38735400 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejps.2024.106796] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2024] [Revised: 05/07/2024] [Accepted: 05/08/2024] [Indexed: 05/14/2024]
Abstract
Polysorbate 80, commonly abbreviated as PS80, is a widely used pharmaceutical excipient renowned for its role as a solubilizer and stabilizer in drug formulations. Although PS80 is essential for various pharmaceutical applications, particularly in the formulation of injectable drugs, it has been implicated in a range of adverse reactions. However, due to the complexity of the composition of PS80, the differences in the types and contents of the constituents of PS80 from different manufacturers increase the probability or likelihood of their uneven quality. Addressing the complete spectrum of PS80's components is challenging; thus, most studies to date have examined PS80 as a singular entity. This approach, however, carries a degree of uncertainty, as it overlooks the unique composition and concentration of components within the PS80 used in experiments, which may not reflect the actual diversity in commercially available PS80 products. Recognizing the critical need to understand how PS80's composition influences biological effects and toxicity, our study aims to bridge this knowledge gap. By doing so, we can clarify how different PS80 compositions from various manufacturers might affect the quality of pharmaceutical formulations, and also guide excipient manufacturers toward producing higher-quality PS80. Such insights could further facilitate a more targeted application of PS80 in drug development. Building on our previous work, we isolated and prepared two key components of PS80-polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate (PSM) and polyoxyethylene isosorbide monooleate (PIM)-and conducted a systematic comparison. We evaluated the acute, hemolytic, and target organ toxicity of two different PS80 samples, as well as PSM and PIM, using a zebrafish model. Our research also delved into the potential mechanisms behind the observed toxicological effects, providing an in-depth understanding of PS80's impact on biological systems.The results show that PS80, PSM, and PIM resulted in developmental anomalies in larval zebrafish. The primary organs of acute toxicity in zebrafish exposed to PS80 and its typical components PSM and PIM include the cardiovascular system, kidneys, intestines, skin, and liver. Notably, PIM further induced severe pericardial edema and erythrocyte hemolysis, thereby affecting blood flow. The samples also instigated oxidative damage by disrupting the redox equilibrium in the larvae. Compared to PS80, both PSM and PIM induced greater oxidative damage, with PIM notably causing significantly higher lipid oxidation, suggesting that oxidative stress may play a crucial role in polysorbate80-induced toxicity. Furthermore, our study found that PS80 could induce alterations in DNA conformation. The findings underscore the necessity for excipient regulators to establish comprehensive quality standards for Polysorbate 80 (PS80). By implementing such standards, it is possible to minimize the clinical risks associated with the variability in PS80 composition, ensuring safer pharmaceutical products for patients.

Stereo-selective cardiac toxicity induced by metconazole via oxidative stress and the wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in zebrafish embryos. ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2024; 350:124034.

Abstract
Metconazole (MEZ), a chiral triazole fungicide, produces enantioselective adverse effects in non-target organisms. Among MEZ's isomers, cis-MEZ displays robust antimicrobial properties. Evaluating MEZ and cis-MEZ's toxicity may mitigate fungicide usage and safeguard non-target organisms. Our study evaluated the toxicity of MEZ and its cis-isomers at concentrations of 0.02, 0.2, 2, and 4 mg L-1. We report stereoselectivity and severe cardiovascular defects in zebrafish, including pericardial oedema, decreased heart rate, increased sinus venous and bulbous arteries distances, intersegmental vessel defects, and altered cardiovascular development genes (hand2, gata4, nkx2.5, tbx5, vmhc, amhc, dll4, vegfaa, and vegfc). Further, MEZ significantly increased oxidative stress and apoptosis in zebrafish, primarily in the cardiac region. Isoquercetin, an antioxidant found in plants, partially mitigates MEZ-induced cardiac defects. Furthermore, MEZ upregulated the Wnt/β-catenin pathway genes (wnt3, β-catenin, axin2, and gsk-3β) and β-catenin protein expression. Inhibitor of Wnt Response-1 (IWR-1) rescued MEZ-induced cardiotoxicity. Our findings highlight oxidative stress, altered cardiovascular development genes, and upregulated Wnt/β-catenin signaling as contributors to cardiovascular toxicity in response to MEZ and cis-MEZ treatments. Importantly, 1R,5S-MEZ exhibited greater cardiotoxicity than 1S,5R-MEZ. Thus, our study provides a comprehensive understanding of cis-MEZ's cardiovascular toxicity in aquatic life.

Abstract
Metconazole is a novel chiral fungicide with two chiral carbon atoms, but the research on its stereoselective behavior is limited. Therefore, the stereoselective behaviors of metconazole in four fruits, including grape, peach, pear and jujube, were summarized in this study. After determining the absolute configuration of metconazole stereoisomers, a chiral separation method through supercritical fluid chromatography/tandem triple quadrupole mass spectrometry was first developed, which combined an improved QuEChERS method obtained the recoveries of 71.6-113 % with RSD ≤ 19.8 %. The LOD and LOQ were 4.30-95.9 and 10.5-143.2 ng/kg, respectively. Different stereoselective and diastereoselective behaviors were observed in four fruits. Dietary risk assessments of rac-metconazole were performed in populations with different ages and genders. Both acute (RQa, 0.0124-0.140 %) and chronic (HQ, 0.0234-0.0794 %) intake risks were acceptable. The results of this study would contribute to more complete risk assessments of metconazole and provide data for chiral studies.

Abstract
Metconazole (MEZ) is a novel chiral triazole fungicide that is widely used to prevent and control soil-borne fungal pathogens and other fungal diseases. However, it has a long half-life in aquatic environments and thus poses potential environmental risks. This study evaluates the acute and stereoselective cardiotoxicity of MEZ in zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryos. In addition, transcriptomics, real-time quantitative PCR, enzyme activity determination, and molecular docking are performed to evaluate the molecular mechanisms underlying the cardiotoxicity of MEZ in zebrafish. MEZ decreases the heart rate while increasing the pericardial oedema rate; additionally, it induces stereoselective cardiotoxicity. 1S,5S-MEZ exhibits stronger cardiotoxicity than 1R,5R-MEZ. Furthermore, MEZ increases the expression of Ahr-associated genes and the transcription factors il6st, il1b, and AP-1. Heart development-related genes, including fbn2b, rbm24b, and tbx20 are differentially expressed. MEZ administration alters the activities of catalase, peroxidase, and glutathione-S-transferase in zebrafish larvae. Molecular docking indicates that 1R,5R-MEZ binds more strongly to the inhibitor-binding sites of p38 in the AGE-RAGE signalling pathway than to other MEZ enantiomers. Studies conducted in vivo and in silico have established the enantioselective cardiotoxicity of MEZ and its underlying mechanisms, highlighting the need to evaluate the environmental risk of chiral MEZ in aquatic organisms at the enantiomeric level.

Abstract
Metconazole is one of the widely-used chiral triazole fungicides in controlling wheat leaf rust, powdery mildew, Fusarium head blight with high efficacy, and so forth. In the current work, the effects of chiral stationary phases, alcoholic modifiers, and column temperature on the chiral separation of metconazole were discussed in detail. Amylose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate)-coated chiral stationary phase exhibited much stronger chiral recognition ability toward metconazole stereoisomers in the CO2 /ethanol mixture as compared to the others. Then, a two-step semi-preparative separation of metconazole was performed through supercritical fluid chromatography and high-performance liquid chromatography, and the enantiomeric excess values of four stereoisomers were achieved over 98%. Moreover, the enantioselective cytotoxicity of cis-metconazole against HepG2 cells has been investigated, and the order of the cell proliferation toxicity against HepG2 cells was (1R, 5S)-metconazole > (1S, 5R)-metconazole > the mixture. Briefly, this study would provide valuable information in the preparative separation of optically pure metconazole products through chromatographic techniques and their environmental risk assessment.

Abstract
The stereoselective behaviors and dietary risks of metconazole (MZE) in soil and five vegetables were investigated. The results showed that there was species-specific stereoselective and diastereoselective dissipation, and the half-lives ranged from 0.69 to 8.17 days. cis-(+)-1S,5R-MZE was preferentially dissipated in soybean pods, cabbages, celeries, and tomatoes, which was contrary to soybean plants and soil. trans-(+)-1R,5R-MZE was preferentially dissipated in peanut plants, peanut shells, celeries, and tomatoes, while trans-(-)-1S,5S-MZE was preferentially dissipated in soybean plants. cis-MZE was preferentially dissipated in the test vegetables and soil, except celery. The stereoisomeric excess changes were higher than 10%, indicating that the stereoselectivity and diastereoselectivity should be considered in the risk assessment of MZE in soybean plants, pods, and peanut plants. The acute and chronic dietary intake risks of rac-MZE for different groups of people were acceptable. The preferentially dissipated and high activity cis-(+)-1S,5R-MZE with lower toxicity might be suitable for application as monocase.

In vitro exposure to triazoles used as fungicides impairs human granulosa cells steroidogenesis. ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY AND PHARMACOLOGY 2023; 104:104295.

Abstract
Triazoles are the main components of fungicides used in conventional agriculture. Some data suggests that they may be endocrine disruptors. Here, we found five triazoles, prothioconazole, metconazole, difenoconazole, tetraconazole, and cyproconazole, in soil or water from the Centre-Val de Loire region of France. We then studied their effects from 0.001 µM to 1000 µM for 48 h on the steroidogenesis and cytotoxicity of ovarian cells from patients in this region and the human granulosa line KGN. In addition, the expression of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) nuclear receptor in KGN cells was studied. Overall, all triazoles reduced the secretion of progesterone, estradiol, or both at doses that were non-cytotoxic but higher than those found in the environment. This was mainly associated, depending on the triazole, with a decrease in the expression of CYP51, STAR, CYP11A1, CYP19A1, or HSD3B proteins, or a combination thereof, in hGCs and KGN cells and an increase in AHR in KGN cells.

Abstract
Fluindapyr is a novel chiral succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor used to control fungal diseases. The enantioselective effects of fluindapyr in paddy ecosystems are unknown. We developed a new chiral determination method of fluindapyr using ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. The absolute configuration of the fluindapyr enantiomers was identified by an electron circular dichroism model. A new husk-based biochar material was used to optimize and establish a QuEchERs method for paddy soil determination. Under anaerobic conditions, the half-lives of R-fluindapyr and S-fluindapyr in paddy soil were 69.6 and 101.8 days, respectively. R-fluindapyr degraded more rapidly than S-fluindapyr. S-fluindapyr was 87.8 times more active against Rhizoctonia solani than R-fluindapyr. The enantioselective bioactivity mechanism was illustrated by molecular docking between the fluindapyr enantiomers and SDH of R. solani. The binding powers of R-fluindapyr and S-fluindapyr to proteins were -32.12 and - 42.91 kcal/mol, respectively. This study reports the stereoselectivity of fluindapyr about determination, degradation, bioactivity, and its mechanism. It provides a foundation for an in-depth study of fluindapyr at the enantiomer level.
