Abstract
A method for the simultaneous determination of eight quinoxalines and their metabolites in poultry feathers was developed in this study using ultra-performance liquid chromatography combine with quadrupole linear ion trap electrostatic field orbit trap high resolution mass spectrometer. Specificity, matrix effect, linearity, trueness, repeatability, reproducibility, and stability using the Commission of the European Communities, Regulation (EU) 2021/808. The correlation coefficients were all greater than 0.99. The average recoveries of the eight compounds ranged from 76.1% to 112.8%, with coefficient of variation of less than 15%. The limits of detection and quantification of the method were 0.04-0.1 μg/kg and 0.12-0.3 μg/kg, respectively. The method has been successfully applied to depletions of olaquindox and quincetone in feathers of laying hens. Methylquinoxaline-2-carboxylic acid and quincetone are the main metabolites in olaquindox and quincetone in feather, respectively.

Abstract
Titanium dioxide (TiO2) was used in various applications in a wide range of products including food, cosmetics and photocatalyst. General toxicity studies of titanium dioxide, GST (Green Sludge Titanium) have been investigated in several reports, whereas studies concerning mutagenicity and genotoxicity have not been elucidated. Herein, we investigated the potential mutagenicity and genotoxicity of GST by genetic toxicology testing. The bacterial reverse mutation test was conducted by the pre-incubation method in the presence and absence of metabolic activation system (S9 mixture). The chromosome aberration test was performed using cultured Chinese hamster lung cell line in the absence and presence of S9 mixture. The micronucleus test was performed by using specific pathogen-free male ICR mice. Genotoxicity tests were conducted following the test guidelines of the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development with application of Good Laboratory Practice. No statistically significant increases were found in the bacterial reverse mutation test, in vitro chromosome aberration test, and in vivo micronucleus test when tested for induction of genotoxicity in GST. These results suggest that GST did not induce mutagenicity and genotoxicity in both in vitro and in vivo system.

Abstract
We evaluated the potential genotoxic effects of the nutrient supplement SUNACTIVE Zn-P240 in vitro and in vivo. Genotoxicity tests were performed at the Korea Testing and Research Institute, a GLP certification institution. A bacterial reverse mutation test was performed using the pre-incubation method, while the in vitro chromosome aberration test was performed using a cultured Chinese hamster lung cell line in the presence or absence of metabolic activation. The in vivo micronucleus test was performed using ICR mice. The bacterial reverse mutation test revealed that SUNACTIVE Zn-P240 did not induce genetic mutations at the tested doses in Salmonella typhimurium (TA98, TA100, TA1535, and TA1537) and Escherichia coli (WP2uvrA) tester strains. Meanwhile, the results of the in vitro chromosomal aberration and in vivo micronucleus tests revealed that SUNACTIVE Zn-P240 did not induce chromosomal aberrations. These results suggest that SUNACTIVE Zn-P240 did not exhibit mutagenic or clastogenic properties in vitro and in vivo.

Quercetin Attenuates Quinocetone-Induced Cell Apoptosis In Vitro by Activating the P38/Nrf2/HO-1 Pathway and Inhibiting the ROS/Mitochondrial Apoptotic Pathway. Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:antiox11081498. [PMID: 36009217 PMCID: PMC9405464 DOI: 10.3390/antiox11081498] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/22/2022] [Revised: 07/25/2022] [Accepted: 07/28/2022] [Indexed: 01/25/2023] Open
Abstract
Quinocetone (QCT), a member of the quinoxaline 1,4-di-N-oxides (QdNOs) family, can cause genotoxicity and hepatotoxicity, however, the precise molecular mechanisms of QCT are unclear. This present study investigated the protective effect of quercetin on QCT-induced cytotoxicity and the underlying molecular mechanisms in human L02 and HepG2 cells. The results showed that quercetin treatment (at 7.5–30 μM) significantly improved QCT-induced cytotoxicity and oxidative damage in human L02 and HepG2 cells. Meanwhile, quercetin treatment at 30 μM significantly inhibited QCT-induced loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, an increase in the expression of the CytC protein and the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio, and an increase in caspases-9 and -3 activity, and finally improved cell apoptosis. Quercetin pretreatment promoted the expression of the phosphorylation of p38, Nrf2, and HO-1 proteins. Pharmacological inhibition of p38 significantly inhibited quercetin-mediated activation of the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway. Consistently, pharmacological inhibitions of the Nrf2 or p38 pathways both promoted QCT-induced cytotoxicity and partly abolished the protective effects of quercetin. In conclusion, for the first time, our results reveal that quercetin could improve QCT-induced cytotoxicity and apoptosis by activating the p38/Nrf2/HO-1 pathway and inhibiting the ROS/mitochondrial apoptotic pathway. Our study highlights that quercetin may be a promising candidate for preventing QdNOs-induced cytotoxicity in humans or animals.

Abstract
Abstract
A sensitive and validated method for determining quinocetone and its main metabolites (3-methylquinoxaline-2-carboxylic acid and dedioxoquinenone) was established in aquatic products using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS). Samples were extracted with 2.0 mol L−1 hydrochloric acid, then purified on MAX columns. After extraction and purification, the supernatant was evaporated to dry nearly under a gentle stream of nitrogen at 40 °C. Formic acid-acetonitrile-water (0.1/30/70, v/v/v) was adjusted to 1.00 mL final volume. An aliquot (10 μL) was injected into the C18 column for separation with the mobile phase of acetonitrile and 0.5% formic acid in water at 0.25 mL min−1. Calibration curves were linear ranged from 10.00 ng mL−1 to 200.0 ng mL−1 for quinocetone and 3-methylquinoxaline-2-carboxylic acid, and 20.00 ng mL−1 to 400.0 ng mL−1 for dedioxoquinenone. Mean recoveries were 70%–89%, 73%–83% and 72%–84%, respectively. The limit of detection (LOD) was 1.00 μg kg−1, 1.00 μg kg−1 and 2.00 μg kg−1, and quantification (LOQ) were 2.00 μg kg−1, 2.00 μg kg−1 and 4.00 μg kg−1 for quinocetone, 3-methylquinoxaline-2-carboxylic acid, and dedioxoquinenone. Based on the method above, the analytes were determined in Apostichopus japonicus, three fishes (including Ctenopharyngodon idellus, Crucian carp and Oreochromis mossambicus), Penaeus vannamei, Penaeus chinensis, and Chlamys farreri. The method shows good sensitivity, linearity, precision, and accuracy. In short, the proposed method was reliable for the determination of quinocetone, 3-methylquinoxaline-2-carboxylic acid, and dedioxoquinenone in aquatic products.

Abstract
Presently, toxicological assessment of multiple veterinary antimicrobials has not been performed on mammals. In this study, we assessed the short-term toxicity of enrofloxacin (E) combined with colistin (C) and quinocetone (Q). Young male rats were orally dosed drug mixtures and single drugs in 14 consecutive days, each at the dose of 20, 80, and 400 mg/(kg·BW) for environmental toxicologic study. The results showed that at the high dose treatment, the combination of E + C+Q significantly decreased body intake, lymphocytes count on rats; significantly increased the values of Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), Glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (AST) and, cholinesterase (CHE); it also got the severest histopathological changes, where sinusoidal congestion and a large number of black particles in sinusoids were observed. This means E + C+Q in the high dose groups was able to cause significant damage to the liver. Other combinations or doses did not induce significant liver damage. Transcriptome analysis was then performed on rats in high dose group for further research. For E + C and E + Q, an amount of 375 and 480 differently expressed genes were filtered out, revealing their possible underlying effect on genomes. For E + C+Q, a weighted gene co-expression network analysis was performed and 96 hub genes were identified to reveal the specific effect induced by this combination. This study indicates that joint toxicity should be taken into consideration when involving the risk assessment of these antimicrobials.

Abstract
Considering the high environmental risk, the remediation of veterinary drug pollutants aroused numerous concerning. In this paper, a novel photocatlyst, SnO2/SnIn4S8, was fabricated by in situ precipitation and hydrothermal method and then employed to simulate photocatalytic degradation of olaquindox under visible light. The SEM, TEM, XRD, XPS and electrochemical results clearly showed that the n-type heterojunction between SnO2 and SnIn4S8 was successfully constructed, which greatly reduce the recombination of the photogenic electron and holes, leading to the improvement of photocalytic performance and stability (recycled over 10 times). Besides, the SnO2/SnIn4S8 composite also exhibited good ability to mineralize the olaquindox. Under the optimal condition (pH of 3, 1 g L-1 of 30 wt% SnO2/SnIn4S8 and 10 mg L-1 of initial olaquindox concentration), the olaquindox could be fully and rapidly degraded in 25 min, and completely mineralized in 2 h (99.3 ± 1.7%). LC-QTOF-MS analysis evidently displayed 10 intermediates during the olaquindox degradation. In addition, with the attack of the reactive oxygen species (h+, •OH and •O2-), olaquindox could be effectively decomposed via deoxygenation, hydroxylation and carboxylation reactions. Importantly, compared to photodegradation, the photocatalytic process was an ideal way to eliminate the olaquindox form water because it could avoid the accumulation of toxic byproducts.

Olaquindox-Induced Liver Damage Involved the Crosstalk of Oxidative Stress and p53 In Vivo and In Vitro. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2020; 2020:8835207.

Abstract
Olaquindox (OLA), a member of the quinoxaline-N,N-dioxide family, has been widely used as a growth-promoting feed additive and treatment for bacterial infections. The toxicity has been a major concern, and the precise molecular mechanism remains poorly understood. The present study was aimed at investigating the roles of oxidative stress and p53 in OLA-caused liver damage. In a mouse model, OLA administration could markedly cause liver injury as well as the induction of oxidative stress and activation of p53. Antioxidant N-acetylcysteine (NAC) inhibited OLA-induced oxidative stress and p53 activation in vivo. Furthermore, knockout of the p53 gene could significantly inhibit OLA-induced liver damage by inhibiting oxidative stress and the mitochondria apoptotic pathway, compared to the p53 wild-type liver tissue. The cell model in vitro further demonstrated that p53 knockout or knockdown in the HCT116 cell and L02 cell significantly inhibited cell apoptosis and increased cell viability, presented by suppressing ROS production, oxidative stress, and the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway. Moreover, loss of p53 decreased OLA-induced mitochondrial dysfunction and caspase activations, with the evidence of inhibited activation of phosphorylation- (p-) p38 and p-JNK and upregulated cell autophagy via activation of the LC3 and Beclin1 pathway in HCT116 and L02 cells. Taken together, our findings provided a support that p53 primarily played a proapoptotic role in OLA-induced liver damage against oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction, which were largely dependent on suppression of the JNK/p38 pathway and upregulation of the autophagy pathway via activation of LC3 and Beclin1.

Abstract
Olaquindox (OLA) has been widely used as an animal feed additive in China for decades; however, its toxicity and toxic mechanisms have not been well investigated. In this study, the developmental neurotoxicity and toxic mechanisms of OLA were evaluated in zebrafish. Zebrafish embryos were exposed to different concentrations of OLA (25-1,000 mg/L) from 6 to 120 hours post fertilization (hpf). OLA exposure resulted in many abnormal phenotypes in zebrafish, including shortened body length, notochord degeneration, spinal curvature, brain apoptosis, damage of axon and peripheral motor neuron, and hepatotoxicity. Interestingly, OLA increased zebrafish spontaneous tail coiling, while reduced locomotor capacity. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Q-PCR) showed that the expression levels of nine marker genes for nervous system functions or development, namely, α1-tubulin, glial fibrillary acidic protein (gfap), myelin basic protein (mbp), synapsinII a (syn2a), sonic hedgehog a (shha), encoding HuC (elavl3), mesencephalic astrocyte-derived neurotrophic factor (manf) growth associated protein 43 (gap43), and acetylcholinesterase (ache) were all down-regulated significantly in zebrafish after treated with OLA. Besides, the anti-apoptotic and pro-apoptotic genes bcl-2/bax ratio was reduced. These results show that OLA exposure could cause severe developmental neurotoxicity in the early stages of zebrafish life and OLA might induce neurotoxicity by inhibiting the expression of neuro-developmental genes and promoting apoptosis.

Abstract
The approximately 1011 viruses and microbial cells per gram of fecal matter (dry weight) in the large intestine are important to human health. The responses of three common gut bacteria species, and one opportunistic pathogen, to 117 commonly consumed foods, chemical additives, and plant extracts were tested. Many compounds, including Stevia rebaudiana and bee propolis extracts, exhibited species-specific growth inhibition by prophage induction. Overall, these results show that various foods may change the abundances of gut bacteria by modulating temperate phage and suggests a novel path for landscaping the human gut microbiome.

Novel Electrochemical Sensor Fabricated for Individual and Simultaneous Ultrasensitive Determination of Olaquindox and Carbadox Based on MWCNT-OH/CMK-8 Hybrid Nanocomposite Film. Molecules 2019; 24:molecules24173041. [PMID: 31443345 PMCID: PMC6749216 DOI: 10.3390/molecules24173041] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2019] [Revised: 08/08/2019] [Accepted: 08/19/2019] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
A hybrid nanocomposite consisting of hydroxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs-OH) and cube mesoporous carbon (CMK-8) was applied in this study to construct an MWCNT-OH/CMK-8/gold electrode (GE) electrochemical sensor and simultaneously perform the electro-reduction of olaquindox (OLA) and carbadox (CBX). The respective peak currents of CBX and OLA on the modified electrode increased by 720- and 595-fold relative to the peak current of GE. The performances of the modified electrode were investigated with electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, and differential pulse voltammetry. Then, the modified electrodes were used for the individual and simultaneous determination of OLA and CBX. The fabricated sensor demonstrated a linear response at 0.2-500 nmol/L in optimum experimental conditions, and the detection limits were 104.1 and 62.9 pmol/L for the simultaneous determination of OLA and CBX, respectively. As for individual determination, wide linear relationships were obtained for the detected OLA with levels of 0.05-500 nmol/L with LOD of 20.7 pmol/L and the detected CBX with levels of 0.10-500 nmol/L with LOD of 50.2 pmol/L. The fabricated sensor was successfully used in the independent and simultaneous determination of OLA and CBX in spiked pork samples.

Abstract
The excretion, metabolism, distribution, and residue depletion of olaquindox (OLA), an antibacterial and growth-promoting agent used in food-producing animals for decades without a clear understanding of metabolic fate, was completely studied in pigs, broilers, carp, and rats using a radio-tracing approach combined with liquid chromatography-ion trap/time-of-flight mass spectroscopy to define the scientific marker residue (MR). After a single gavage of [3H]OLA, over 92% of the dose was excreted via urine. OLA was transformed into eight metabolites (O1-O8) in pigs and broilers, four metabolites (O1, O2, O4, and O7) in carp, and nine metabolites (O1-O9) in rats. O2 was the major residue in edible tissues of four species and persisted for the longest time in the kidneys with the longest half-life of 3.52-4.6 d. Bisdesoxyolaquindox (O2) is designated to be the MR, and the kidneys are considered to be the target tissue for OLA in food producing animals. Monitoring for this metabolite would improve the food safety evaluation and residue control of this drug.

Abstract
To monitor the illegal use of olaquindox in animals, a monoclonal antibody-based surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor method has been developed to detect 3-methyl-quinoxaline-2-carboxylic acid, the marker residues of olaquindox, in swine tissues. The limit of detection was 1.4 µg kg-1 in swine muscle and 2.7 µg kg-1 in swine liver, which are lower than the EU recommended concentration (10 µg kg-1). The recoveries were from 82% to 104.6%, with coefficients of variation of less than 12.2%. Good correlations between SPR and HPLC results (r = 0.9806, muscle; r = 0.9698, liver) and between SPR and ic-ELISA results (r = 0.9918, muscle; r = 0.9873, liver) were observed in the affected tissues, which demonstrated the reliability of the SPR method. This method would be a rapid and reliable tool for the screening of the residues of olaquindox in the edible tissues of animals.

Abstract
Mequindox (MEQ) is a synthetic antibacterial agent. Recent studies showed that MEQ and its primary metabolites exhibit strong genotoxicity to mammalian cells, and MEQ induced carcinogenicity in mice. These findings suggest that chronic exposure to MEQ could lead to an increased risk of cancer later in life. In the present study, four groups of Wistar rats (55 rats/sex/group) were fed with diets containing MEQ (0, 25, 55, and 110 mg/kg) for 2 years. The results showed that the hematological system, liver, kidneys, and adrenal glands, as well as the developmental and reproductive systems, were the main targets for MEQ. Liver toxicity mediated by MEQ was associated with apoptosis and the nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) signaling pathway. In addition, MEQ increased the incidence of tumors in rats. Phosphorylated histone H2AX (γ-H2AX) is identified as a biomarker of cellular response to DNA double-strand breaks (DSB). Our data demonstrated that γ-H2AX expression was significantly increased in tumors. Thus, high levels of DSB might be responsible for carcinogenesis in rats, and further investigation is absolutely required to clarify the exact molecular mechanisms for carcinogenicity caused by MEQ in vivo.

Abstract
Olaquindox as one of the effective antimicrobial agents and growth-promoting feed additives, had been widely used in animal and fish production. However, few studies have been done to unveil its possible toxic effect and tissue injury on aquatic animal. In this study, the toxic effect and underlying mechanisms of olaquindox toxicity were investigated in common carp when feed with different doses of olaquindox for 90 days. The morbidity and mortality, pathological changes, hematology parameters, residue concentration in the tissues of common carp were assessed, hepatocyte apoptosis was detected through ultrastructural observation and flow cytometry methods. The results showed that the morbidity and mortality increased with the increasing dosages of dietary olaquindox, subchronic exposure to olaquindox caused remarkably pathological changes, including congestion and bleeding, intramuscular edema, vacuolar degeneration, degeneration and deformation in renal tubules architecture, respiratory epithelium fusion and intestinal epithelial microvilli disintegration. Besides, dietary olaquindox led to significant changes in blood biochemical parameters including red blood cell, hemoglobin, alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase, an elevated residue concentration of olaquindox was detected in liver and kidney after exposure, hepatocyte apoptosis and necrosis were observed. Moreover, insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) mRNA level in liver was higher than normal level with the dose below 25 mg/kg olaquindox and was lower than normal level with the dose above 50 mg/kg. Our results demonstrated that dietary olaquindox may pose subchronic toxicity and residue in fish organs and provided scientific data for the safe application of olaquindox in fish.

Abstract
Quinoxalines are benzopyrazines containing benzene and pyrazine rings fused together. In the recent past, quinoxalines have attracted Medicinal Chemists considerably for their syntheses and chemistry due to their distinct pharmacological activities. Diverse synthetic protocols have been developed via multicomponent reactions, single pot synthesis and combinatorial approach using efficient catalysts, reagents, and nano-composites etc. Further, the versatility of the quinoxaline core and its reasonable chemical simplicity devise it extremely promising source of bioactive compounds. Therefore, a wide variety of bioactive quinoxalines has been realised as antitumour, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and antiviral agents. Already, a few of them are clinical drugs while many more are under various phases of clinical trials. Present review focuses on chemistry and pharmacology (both efficacy and safety) of quinoxalines and also provides some insight in to their structure-activity relationship.

Abstract
Cyadox is a novel derivative of quinoxaline-1,4-dioxides (QdNOs) with the potential to be developed as a feed additive. However, the pharmacological and toxicological bioactive molecules of cyadox and the molecular mechanism of its pharmacological and toxic actions remain unclear. In the present study, cyadox and its main metabolites of cy1, cy4, cy6, and cy12 were selected; the growth promotion characteristic was indicated by the mRNA level of EGF; and the cytotoxicity of cyadox was determined by methylthiazol tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release, and Annexin V-FITC/PI apoptosis detection kit with flow cytometry. The intracellular ROS, cyclin D1, and Akt/P53/FOXO1 signaling pathway were also investigated. Our data suggested that cyadox showed relatively higher activity than its metabolites, and the ROS was generated from N-O reduction of cyadox. Moreover, cyadox (2 μM) activated the Akt and increased the EGF, cyclin D1, and FOXO1 expression levels. Cyadox (100 μM) induced cytotoxicity in L02 cells in a concentration- and time-dependent manner. Additionally, the activated P53 pathway, hyperactivated Akt, and apoptosis were found in L02 cells after incubation with 100 μM cyadox. Our data demonstrated that Akt promoted cell survival when it was mildly activated by cyadox at 2 μM, and Akt leads to apoptosis when it was severely activated by cyadox at 100 μM. Thus, the present study revealed that N-O reduction of cyadox and ROS-mediated AKT/FOXO1 and AKT/P53 pathways were involved in growth promotion and cytotoxicity of cyadox.

ROS-mediated oligomerization of VDAC2 is associated with quinocetone-induced apoptotic cell death. Toxicol In Vitro 2017; 47:195-206.

Abstract
Quinocetone (QCT) has been approved and widely used as an animal feed additive in China since 2003. However, investigations indicate that QCT shows potential toxicity both in vitro and in vivo. Although voltage dependent anion channel 1 (VDAC1) involved in regulating QCT-induced apoptotic cell death has been established, the role of voltage dependent anion channel 2 (VDAC2) in QCT-induced toxicity remains unclear. In this study, we showed that QCT-induced cell death was coupled to VDAC2 oligomerization. Moreover, VDAC inhibitor 4, 4'-diisothiocyano stilbene-2, 2'-disulfonic acid (DIDS) alleviated QCT-induced cell death and VDAC2 oligomerization. Meanwhile, overexpression VDAC2 aggravated QCT-induced VDAC2 oligomerization. In addition, caspase inhibitor Z-VAD-FMK and reactive oxidative species (ROS) scavenger N-acetyl-l-cysteine (NAC) apparently blocked QCT-induced cell death and VDAC2 oligomerization. Finally, overexpression N-terminal truncated VDAC2 attenuated QCT-induced VDAC2 oligomerization but had no influence on its localization to mitochondria when comparing to the full length of VDAC2. Taken together, our results reveal that ROS-mediated VDAC2 oligomerization is associated with QCT-induced apoptotic cell death. The N-terminal region of VDAC2 is required for QCT-induced VDAC2 oligomerization.

Abstract
Leishmaniasis is a neglected tropical disease caused by the parasite of the genus Leishmania. About 13 million people are infected worldwide, and it is estimated that 350 million are at risk of infection. Clinical manifestations depend on the parasite species and factors related to the host such as the immune system, nutrition, housing, and financial resources. Available treatments have severe side effects; therefore, research currently focuses on finding more active and less toxic compounds. Quinoxalines have been described as promising alternatives. In this context, 17 isopropyl quinoxaline-7-carboxylate 1,4-di-N-oxide derivatives were evaluated as potential leishmanicidal agents. Their effect on the cell metabolism of Leishmania mexicana promastigotes and their cytotoxic effects on the J774.A1 cell line and on erythrocytes were evaluated, and their selectivity index was calculated. Compounds T-069 (IC50 = 1.49 μg/mL), T-070 (IC50 = 1.71 μg/mL), T-072 (IC50 = 6.62 μg/mL), T-073 (IC50 = 1.25 μg/mL), T-085 (IC50 = 0.74 μg/mL), and T-116 (IC50 = 0.88 μg/mL) were the most active against L. mexicana promastigotes and their mechanism of action was characterized by flow cytometry and microscopy. Compound T-073, the most selective quinoxaline derivative, induced cell membrane damage, phosphatidylserine exposition, reactive oxygen species production, disruption of the mitochondrion membrane potential, and DNA fragmentation, all in a dose-dependent manner, indicating the induction of regulated necrosis. Light and transmission electron microscopy showed the drastic morphological changes induced and the mitochondrion as the most sensitive organelle in response to T-073. This study describes the mechanism by which active isopropyl quinoxaline-7-carboxylate 1,4-di-N-oxide quinoxalines affect the parasite.

Abstract
Mequindox (MEQ) is a synthetic antimicrobial agent widely used in China since the 1980s. Although the toxicity of MEQ is well recognized, its testis toxicity has not been adequately investigated. In the present study, we provide evidence that MEQ triggers oxidative stress, mitochondrion dysfunction and spermatogenesis deficiency in mice after exposure to MEQ (0, 25, 55, and 110 mg/kg in the diet) for up to 18 months. The genotoxicity and adrenal toxicity may contribute to sperm abnormalities caused by MEQ. Moreover, using LC/MS-IT-TOF analysis, two metabolites, 3-methyl-2-(1-hydroxyethyl) quinoxaline-N4-monoxide (M4) and 3-methyl-2-(1-hydroxyethyl) quinoxaline-N1-monoxide (M8), were detected in the serum of mice, which directly confirms the relationship between the N→O group reduction metabolism of MEQ and oxidative stress. Interestingly, only M4 was detected in the testes, suggesting that the higher reproductive toxicity of M4 than M8 might be due to the increased stability of M4-radical (M4-R) compared to M8-radical (M8-R). Furthermore, the expression of the blood-testis barrier (BTB)-associated junctions such as tight junctions, gap junctions and basal ectoplasmic specializations were also examined. The present study demonstrated for the first time the role of the M4 in testis toxicity, and illustrated that the oxidative stress, mitochondrion dysfunction and interference in spermatogenesis, as well as the altered expression of BTB related junctions, were involved in the reproductive toxicity mediated by MEQ in vivo.

ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY AND PHARMACOLOGY 2017; 54:28-33. [PMID: 28668705 DOI: 10.1016/j.etap.2017.06.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2017] [Revised: 06/17/2017] [Accepted: 06/19/2017] [Indexed: 06/07/2023]
Abstract
β-Phellandrene, a plant extract, can be used as natural pesticides and synthetic materials. As a factor that human may be exposed to, the toxicity information about β-phellandrene is scared at present. This study focused on the genetic toxicity of β-phellandrene. The genetic toxicity of β-phellandrene was evaluated by micronucleus test, comet assay, Ames test, and chromosomal aberration test. In this study, 2850, 1425, 712.5mg/kg β-phellandrene were used in vivo experiments (comet assay and micronucleus test). For Ames test, pure β-phellandrene and different concentrations were used in the experiment. According to the results of cell viability assay (MTT test), the concentration of chromosomal aberration test was formulated. The result of comet assay showed that β-phellandrene can significantly induce DNA damage at the dosage of 1425 and 2850mg/kg. While the results of Micronucleus test and chromosome aberration test showed that β-phellandrene does not lead to apparently genetic toxicity on chromosome level. Ames tests suggest that β-phellandrene had the ability to increase gene mutation with or without S9 mixture. So, it could be drawn that β-phellandrene would have certain genetic toxicity, and the toxicity is reflected as DNA strand breaks and mutation. This study filled the lack of genetic toxicity study of β-phellandrene, and enriched information for risk assessment for β-phellandrene.

Abstract
Carbadox is a quinoxaline-di-N-oxide antibiotic fed to over 40% of young pigs in the United States that has been shown to induce phage DNA transduction in vitro; however, the effects of carbadox on swine microbiome functions are poorly understood. We investigated the in vivo longitudinal effects of carbadox on swine gut microbial gene expression (fecal metatranscriptome) and phage population dynamics (fecal dsDNA viromes). Microbial metagenome, transcriptome, and virome sequences were annotated for taxonomic inference and gene function by using FIGfam (isofunctional homolog sequences) and SEED subsystems databases. When the beta diversities of microbial FIGfam annotations were compared, the control and carbadox communities were distinct 2 days after carbadox introduction. This effect was driven by carbadox-associated lower expression of FIGfams (n = 66) related to microbial respiration, carbohydrate utilization, and RNA metabolism (q < 0.1), suggesting bacteriostatic or bactericidal effects within certain populations. Interestingly, carbadox treatment caused greater expression of FIGfams related to all stages of the phage lytic cycle 2 days following the introduction of carbadox (q ≤0.07), suggesting the carbadox-mediated induction of prophages and phage DNA recombination. These effects were diminished by 7 days of continuous carbadox in the feed, suggesting an acute impact. Additionally, the viromes included a few genes that encoded resistance to tetracycline, aminoglycoside, and beta-lactam antibiotics but these did not change in frequency over time or with treatment. The results show decreased bacterial growth and metabolism, prophage induction, and potential transduction of bacterial fitness genes in swine gut bacterial communities as a result of carbadox administration. FDA regulations on agricultural antibiotic use have focused on antibiotics that are important for human medicine. Carbadox is an antibiotic not used in humans but frequently used on U.S. pig farms. It is important to study possible side effects of carbadox use because it has been shown to promote bacterial evolution, which could indirectly impact antibiotic resistance in bacteria of clinical importance. Interestingly, the present study shows greater prophage gene expression in feces from carbadox-fed animals than in feces from nonmedicated animals 2 days after the initiation of in-feed carbadox treatment. Importantly, the phage genetic material isolated in this study contained genes that could provide resistance to antibiotics that are important in human medicine, indicating that human-relevant antibiotic resistance genes are mobile between bacteria via phages. This study highlights the collateral effects of antibiotics and demonstrates the need to consider diverse antibiotic effects whenever antibiotics are being used or new regulations are considered.

Abstract
Quinocetone (QCT), an antimicrobial growth promoter, is widely used in food-producing animals. However, information about pharmacokinetics (PK) of QCT in ducks still remains unavailable up to now. In this study, QCT and its major metabolites (1-desoxyquinocetone, di-desoxyquinocetone and 3-methyl-quinoxaline-2-carboxylic) in ducks were studied using a simple and sensitive UHPLC-MS/MS assay. Twenty ducks were divided into two groups. (n = 10/group). One group received QCT by oral administration at dose of 40 mg/kg while another group received QCT intravenously at 10 mg/kg. Plasma samples were collected at various time points from 0 to 96 hr. QCT and its major metabolites in duck plasma samples were extracted by 1 ml acetonitrile and detected by UHPLC-MS/MS, with the gradient mobile phase that consisted of 0.1% formic acid in water (A) and acetonitrile (B). A noncompartment analysis was used to calculate the PK parameters. The results showed that following oral dosing, the peak plasma concentration (Cmax ) of QCT was 32.14 ng/ml and the area under the curve (AUCINF_obs) was 233.63 (h ng)/ ml. Following intravenous dosing, the Cmax , AUCINF_obs and Vss_obs were 96.70 ng/ml, 152.34 (h ng)/ ml and 807.00 L/kg, respectively. These data indicated that the QCT was less absorbed in vivo following oral administration, with low bioavailability (38.43%). QCT and its major metabolites such as 1-desoxyquinocetone and 3-methyl-quinoxaline-2-carboxylic were detected at individual time points in individual ducks, while the di-desoxyquinocetone was not detected in all time points in all ducks. This study enriches basic scientific data about pharmacokinetics of QCT in ducks after oral and intravenous administration and will be beneficial for clinical application in ducks.

Abstract
To characterize the effects of several subtherapeutic antibiotic combinations on the abundance and diversity of fecal microbes, 400 weaned pigs were selected and randomly assigned to 8 groups, where they were continuously fed different antibiotic combinations for 28 days. Then, a total of 48 pigs were randomly selected to collect feces samples for DNA extraction and 16S rRNA high-throughput sequencing. Compared with that of pigs without antibiotic administration, the diversities of fecal microbes were decreased in the pigs fed chlortetracycline (CTC), olaquindox (OLA), and either enramycin (ER) or virginiamycin (VIR), and the relative abundances of members of the phylum Bacteroidetes and the genus Prevotella were increased. Compared with that of pigs without antibiotic administration, the relative abundances of members of the phylum Proteobacteria and the genus Succinivibrio were decreased in the pigs fed CTC, a mixture of zinc bacitracin (ZB) + colistin sulfate (COL), a mixture of CTC+ZB+COL, a mixture of CTC+OLA, or a mixture of CTC+OLA+ER. α-Diversity and β-diversity were decreased (P < 0.05) in the pigs fed ZB+COL or a mixture of CTC+OLA+ER or CTC+OLA+VIR. This study provides experimental data to deepen our understanding on the effects of antibiotic combinations on intestinal microbes.

Abstract
Olaquindox, a feed additive, has drawn public attention due to its potential mutagenicity, genotoxicity, hepatoxicity and nephrotoxicity. The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC2) pathways in olaquindox-induced autophagy in human embryonic kidney 293 (HEK293) cells. The results revealed that olaquindox treatment reduced the cell viability of HEK293 cells and downregulated the expression of TSC2 in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Meanwhile, olaquindox treatment markedly induced the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), cascaded to autophagy, oxidative stress, and apoptotic cell death, which was effectively eliminated by the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine (NAC). Furthermore, overexpression of TSC2 attenuated olaquindox-induced autophagy in contrast to inducing the production of ROS, oxidative stress and apoptosis. Consistently, knockdown of TSC2 upregulated autophagy, and decreased olaquindox-induced cell apoptosis. In conclusion, our findings indicate that TSC2 partly participates in olaquindox-induced autophagy, oxidative stress and apoptosis, and demonstrate that TSC2 has a negative regulation role in olaquindox-induced autophagy in HEK293 cells.

Abstract
Quinocetone (QCT) has been used as an animal feed additive in China since 2003. However, investigations indicate that QCT has potential toxicity due to the fact that it shows cytotoxicity, genotoxicity, hepatotoxicity, nephrotoxicity and immunotoxicity in vitro and animal models. Although QCT-induced mitochondrial apoptosis has been established, the molecular mechanism remains unclear. This study was aimed to investigate the role of voltage-dependent anion channel 1 (VDAC1) oligomerization and Wnt/β-catenin pathway in QCT-induced mitochondrial apoptosis. The results showed VDAC inhibitor 4, 4-diisothiocyano stilbene-2, 2-disulfonic acid (DIDS) partly compromised QCT-induced cell viability decrease (from 34.1% to 68.5%) and mitochondrial apoptosis accompanied by abating VDAC1 oligomerization, cytochrome c (Cyt c) release and the expression levels of cleaved caspase-9, -3 and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP). Meanwhile, overexpression VDAC1 exacerbated QCT-induced VDAC1 oligomerization and Cyt c release. In addition, lithium chloride (LiCl), an activator of Wnt/β-catenin pathway, markedly attenuated QCT-induced mitochondrial apoptosis by partly restoring the expression levels of Wnt1 and β-catenin. Finally, reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenger N-acetyl-l-cysteine (NAC) obviously blocked QCT-induced VDAC1 oligomerization and the inhibition of Wnt1/β-catenin pathway. Taken together, our results reveal that QCT induces mitochondrial apoptosis by ROS-dependent promotion of VDAC1 oligomerization and suppression of Wnt1/β-catenin pathway.

Toxic metabolites, MAPK and Nrf2/Keap1 signaling pathways involved in oxidative toxicity in mice liver after chronic exposure to Mequindox. Sci Rep 2017; 7:41854.

Abstract
Mequindox (MEQ) is a synthetic antimicrobial agent of quinoxaline-1,4-dioxide group (QdNOs). The liver is regarded as the toxicity target of QdNOs, and the role of N → O group-associated various toxicities mediated by QdNOs is well recognized. However, the mechanism underlying the in vivo effects of MEQ on the liver, and whether the metabolic pathway of MEQ is altered in response to the pathophysiological conditions still remain unclear. We now provide evidence that MEQ triggers oxidative damage in the liver. Moreover, using LC/MS-ITTOF analysis, two metabolites of MEQ were detected in the liver, which directly confirms the potential connection between N → O group reduction metabolism of MEQ and liver toxicity. The gender difference in MEQ-induced oxidative stress might be due to adrenal toxicity and the generation of M4 (2-isoethanol 1-desoxymequindox). Furthermore, up-regulation of the MAPK and Nrf2-Keap1 family and phase II detoxifying enzymes (HO-1, GCLC and NQO1) were also observed. The present study demonstrated for the first time the protein peroxidation and a proposal metabolic pathway after chronic exposure of MEQ, and illustrated that the MAPK, Nrf2-Keap1 and NF-кB signaling pathways, as well as the altered metabolism of MEQ, were involved in oxidative toxicity mediated by MEQ in vivo.

Abstract
Olaquindox, a quinoxaline 1,4-dioxide derivative, is widely used as a feed additive in many countries. The potential genotoxicity of olaquindox, hence, is of concern. However, the proper mechanism of toxicity was unclear. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of growth arrest and DNA damage 45 alpha (GADD45a) on olaquindox-induced DNA damage and cell cycle arrest in HepG2 cells. The results showed that olaquindox could induce reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated DNA damage and S-phase arrest, where increases of GADD45a, cyclin A, Cdk 2, p21 and p53 protein expression, decrease of cyclin D1 and the activation of phosphorylation-c-Jun N-terminal kinases (p-JNK), phosphorylation-p38 (p-p38) and phosphorylation-extracellular signal-regulated kinases (p-ERK) were involved. However, GADD45a knockdown cells treated with olaquindox could significantly decrease cell viability, exacerbate DNA damage and increase S-phase arrest, associated with the marked activation of p-JNK, p-p38, but not p-ERK. Furthermore, SP600125 and SB203580 aggravated olaquindox-induced DNA damage and S-phase arrest, suppressed the expression of GADD45a. Taken together, these findings revealed that GADD45a played a protective role in olaquindox treatment and JNK/p38 pathways may partly contribute to GADD45a regulated olaquindox-induced DNA damage and S-phase arrest. Our findings increase the understanding on the molecular mechanisms of olaquindox.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Ginseng Rh2+ is enzyme-treated ginseng extract containing high amounts of converted ginsenosides, such as compound k, Rh2, Rg3, which have potent anticancer activity. We conducted general and genetic toxicity tests to evaluate the safety of ginseng Rh2+. METHODS An acute oral toxicity test was performed at a high-level dose of 4,000 mg/kg/day in Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. A 14-day range-finding study was also conducted to set dose levels for the 90-day study. A subchronic 90-day toxicity study was performed at dose levels of 1,000 and 2,000 mg/kg/day to investigate the no-observed-adverse-effect level (NOAEL) of ginseng Rh2+ and target organs. To identify the mutagenic potential of ginseng Rh2+, we conducted a bacterial reverse mutation test (Ames test) using amino-acid-requiring strains of Salmonella typhimurium and Escherichia coli (E. coli), a chromosome aberration test with Chinese hamster lung (CHL) cells, and an in vivo micronucleus test using ICR mice bone marrow as recommended by the Korean Ministry of Food and Drug Safety. RESULTS According to the results of the acute oral toxicity study, the approximate lethal dose (ALD) of ginseng Rh2+ was estimated to be higher than 4,000 mg/kg. For the 90-day study, no toxicological effect of ginseng Rh2+ was observed in body-weight changes, food consumption, clinical signs, organ weights, histopathology, ophthalmology, and clinical pathology. The NOAEL of ginseng Rh2+ was established to be 2,000 mg/kg/day, and no target organ was found in this test. In addition, no evidence of mutagenicity was found either on the in vitro genotoxicity tests, including the Ames test and the chromosome aberration test, or on the in vivo in mice bone marrow micronucleus test. CONCLUSION On the basis of our findings, ginseng Rh2+ is a non-toxic material with no genotoxicity. We expect that ginseng Rh2+ may be used as a novel adjuvant anticancer agent that is safe for long-term administration.

Abstract
Olaquindox, a quinoxaline 1, 4-dioxide derivative, has been widely used as a feed additive for promoting animal growth in China. The aim of present study was to investigate the effect of grow arrest and DNA damage 45 alpha (GADD45a) on olaquindox-induced apoptosis in HepG2 cells. The result showed that olaquindox induced the decrease of cell viability in a dose dependent manner. Compared to the control group, olaquindox treatment at 400 and 800μg/mL increased the expression level of GADD45a protein and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, decreased mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), and subsequently increased the expression of Bax while decreased the expression of Bcl-2, leading to the release of cytochrome c (Cyt c). However, knockdown of GADD45a enhanced olaquindox-induced ROS production, disrupted MMP and subsequently caused Cyt c release, then further increased olaquindox- induced cell apoptosis by increasing the activities of caspase-9, caspase-3, and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP). In conclusion, the results revealed that GADD45a played a critical role in olaquindox-induced apoptosis in HepG2 cells, which may embrace the regulatory ability on the mitochondrial apoptosis pathway.

Abstract
A novel molecularly imprinted electrochemical sensor (MIECS) was proposed to determine olaquindox (OLA) using gold nanoparticles in molecularly imprinted polymer (AuNPs@MIP) and carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (cMWCNTs). Glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was modified with cMWCNTs (cMWCNTs/GCE), and AuNPs/cMWCNT/GCE was obtained by electrodeposition on cMWCNTs/GCE using chronoamperometry in HAuCl4. Then, the obtained MIP/AuNPs/cMWCNTs/GCE was electropolymerized using OLA as template and o-PD as monomer to determine OLA. Important experimental parameters, namely, scan cycles, mole ratio of template molecules to functional monomers, pH value, and incubation time were optimized. The novel MIP sensor can offer a 2.7nM of detection limit for OLA. In addition, a series of food and feedstuffs were analyzed to demonstrate the feasibility of MIECS.

Abstract
Quinoxaline 1,4-dioxide derivatives (QdNOs) have been widely used as growth promoters and antibacterial agents. Carbadox (CBX), olaquindox (OLA), quinocetone (QCT), cyadox (CYA) and mequindox (MEQ) are the classical members of QdNOs. Some members of QdNOs are known to cause a variety of toxic effects. To date, however, almost no review has addressed the toxicity and metabolism of QdNOs in relation to oxidative stress. This review focused on the research progress associated with oxidative stress as a plausible mechanism for QdNO-induced toxicity and metabolism. The present review documented that the studies were performed over the past 10 years to interpret the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and oxidative stress as the results of QdNO treatment and have correlated them with various types of QdNO toxicity, suggesting that oxidative stress plays critical roles in their toxicities. The major metabolic pathways of QdNOs are N→O group reduction and hydroxylation. Xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR), aldehyde oxidase (SsAOX1), carbonyl reductase (CBR1) and cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes were involved in the QdNOs metabolism. Further understanding the role of oxidative stress in QdNOs-induced toxicity will throw new light onto the use of antioxidants and scavengers of ROS as well as onto the blind spots of metabolism and the metabolizing enzymes of QdNOs. The present review might contribute to revealing the QdNOs toxicity, protecting against oxidative damage and helping to improve the rational use of concurrent drugs, while developing novel QdNO compounds with more efficient potentials and less toxic effects.

Abstract
Quinoxaline-di-N-oxides (QdNOs) are potential antibacterial agents with a wide range of biological properties. Quinocetone (QCT), carbadox (CBX), olaquindox (OLA), mequindox (MEQ) and cyadox (CYA) are classical QdNOs. Though the genotoxicity of parent drugs has been evaluated, the genotoxicity of their primary N → O reduced metabolites remains unclear. In the present study, a battery of four different short-term tests, mouse lymphoma assay (MLA), Ames test, chromosomal aberration assay in vitro and bone marrow erythrocyte micronucleus assay in vivo was carried out to investigate the genotoxicity of the six primary N → O reduced metabolites. Additionally, the genotoxicity of five parent drugs was evaluated by the MLA. Strong genotoxicity of N1-MEQ, B-MEQ and B-CBX was found in three of the assays but not in the Ames assay, and the rank order was N1-MEQ>B-MEQ>B-CBX that is consistent with prototype QdNOs. Negative results for the five QdNOs were noted in the MLA. We present for the first time a comparison of the genotoxicity of primary N → O reduced metabolites, and evaluate the ability of five QdNOs to cause mutations in the MLA. The present study demonstrates that metabolites are involved in genetic toxicity mediated by QdNOs, and improve the prudent use of QdNOs for public health.

Abstract
The present study is undertaken to explore quinocetone-induced autophagy and its possible mechanism. Western blotting and green fluorescence protein (GFP)-LC3 vector transfection were performed to determine the ratio of LC3 conversion and its subcellular localization. Results revealed that the quinocetone induced autophagy in time- and dose-dependent manners. Besides, we tested the expressions of immunoglobulin heavy chain binding protein (BiP) and C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP) and the transcription of BiP, HerpUD, and sec24D by western blotting and RT-PCR, respectively. Results showed that quinocetone also induced endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress during quinocetone-induced autophagy. Furthermore, we observed the cleavage of ATF6, the phosphorylation of MRLC, and the expression of death-associated protein kinase (DAPK1) by western blotting; the transcription of DAPK1 by RT-PCR; and the subcellular localization of ATF6 and mAtg9 by immunofluorescence. These results suggest that quinocetone stimulates the MRLC-mediated mAtg9 trafficking, which is critical for autophagosome formation, via the ATF6 upregulated expression of DAPK1. Last, we generated ATF6 and DAPK1 stable knockdown HepG2 cell lines and found that the conversion ratios of LC3 were decreased upon the treatment of quinocetone. Together, we propose that quinocetone induces autophagy through ER stress signaling pathway-induced cytoskeleton activation.

Abstract
This research described a sensitive and rapid UPLC-MS/MS method for the determination of mequindox and its six major metabolites in chicken muscle, chicken liver, swine muscle, and swine liver. Among the metabolites, carbonyl reduction-1,4-bisdesoxy-mequindox is novel. Target analytes could be extracted by ethyl acetate without any acidolysis or enzymolysis steps. After purification by a Bond Elut C18 cartridge, analysis was carried out by UPLC-MS/MS using positive ion multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. Validation was performed in spiked samples, and mean recoveries ranged from 64.3 to 114.4%, with intraday and interday variations of less than 14.7 and 19.2%, respectively. The limit of detection (LOD) was <1.0 μg kg(-1), whereas the limit of quantification (LOQ) was <4.0 μg kg(-1). This procedure will help monitor mequindox residues in animal-derived food, and it will also facilitate further pharmacokinetics of mequindox.

Abstract
Quinoxaline 1,4-di-N-oxides (QdNOs) have manifold biological properties, including antimicrobial, antitumoral, antitrypanosomal and antiinflammatory/antioxidant activities. These diverse activities endow them broad applications and prospects in human and veterinary medicines. As QdNOs arouse widespread interest, the evaluation of their medicinal chemistry is still in progress. In the meantime, adverse effects have been reported in some of the QdNO derivatives. For example, genotoxicity and bacterial resistance have been found in QdNO antibacterial growth promoters, conferring urgent need for discovery of new QdNO drugs. However, the modes of actions of QdNOs are not fully understood, hindering the development and innovation of these promising compounds. Here, QdNOs are categorized based on the activities and usages, among which the antimicrobial activities are consist of antibacterial, antimycobacterial and anticandida activities, and the antiprotozoal activities include antitrypanosomal, antimalarial, antitrichomonas, and antiamoebic activities. The structure-activity relationship and the mode of actions of each type of activity of QdNOs are summarized, and the toxicity and the underlying mechanisms are also discussed, providing insight for the future research and development of these fascinating compounds.

Abstract
Quinoxalines possessing the quinoxaline-1,4-dioxide (QdNOs) basic structure are used for their antibacterial action, although their mechanism of genotoxicity is not clear. After comparing the sensitivity of V79 cells and HepG2 cells to quinocetone (QCT) and other QdNOs, it was found that HepG2 cells are more sensitive. The results show that QCT induces the generation of O2˙- and OH˙ during metabolism. Free radicals could then attack guanine and induce 8-hydroxy-deoxyguanine (8-OHdG) generation, causing DNA strand breakage, the inhibition of topoisomerase II (topo II) activity, and alter PCNA, Gadd45 and topo II gene expression. QCT also caused mutations in the mtDNA genes COX1, COX3 and ATP6, which might affect the function of the mitochondrial respiratory chain and increase the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Nuclear extracts from HepG2 cells treated with QCT had markedly reduced topo II activity, as judged by the inability to convert pBR322 DNA from the catenated to the decatenated form by producing stable DNA-topo II complexes. This study suggests that QCT electrostatically bound to DNA in a groove, affecting the dissociation of topo II from DNA and impacting DNA replication. Taken together, these data reveal that DNA damage induced by QCT resulted from O2˙- and OH˙ generated in the metabolism process. This data throws new light onto the genotoxicity of quinoxalines.

Abstract
An immunochromatographic (ICG) strip was developed for the simultaneous quantitative determination of five quinoxaline-1,4-dioxides in animal feed. For this purpose, polyclonal antibodies (PcAb) with group-specific quinoxaline-1,4-dioxides were conjugated to colloidal gold particles as the detection reagent for ICG strips to test for quinoxaline-1,4-dioxides. This method achieved semi-quantitative detection of quinoxaline-1,4-dioxides within 5-10 min. The visual lower detection limits of the strip for quinocetone, cyadox, carbadox, mequindox and olaquindox were 10, 15, 15, 20 and 20 ng ml(-1), respectively. Using an ICG strip reader, the 50% inhibitions (IC50 values) were calculated to be 9.1, 13.5, 16.6, 20.2 and 21.3 ng ml(-1) for quinocetone, cyadox, carbadox, mequindox and olaquindox, respectively. When used to analyse samples of animal feed, acceptable recovery rates of 77.5-99.5% and coefficients of variation (CVs) of 4.3-10.7% were obtained. Levels measured with the ICG strip for 10 spiked samples were confirmed by HPLC with a high correlation coefficient of 0.9965 (n = 10). In conclusion, the method was rapid and accurate for simultaneous determination of five quinoxaline-1,4-dioxides antibiotics in animal feed.

Olaquindox induces DNA damage via the lysosomal and mitochondrial pathway involving ROS production and p53 activation in HEK293 cells. ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY AND PHARMACOLOGY 2015; 40:792-799. [PMID: 26453893 DOI: 10.1016/j.etap.2015.09.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2015] [Revised: 09/13/2015] [Accepted: 09/14/2015] [Indexed: 06/05/2023]
Abstract
Olaquindox (OLA) is a potent antibacterial agent used as a feed additive and growth promoter. In this study, the genotoxic potential of OLA was investigated in the human embryonic kidney cell line 293 (HEK293). Results showed that OLA caused significant increases of DNA migration. Lysosomal membrane permeability and mitochondrial membrane potential were reduced after treatment with OLA. OLA was shown to induce ROS production and GSH depletion. The expression of p53 protein is increased in cells incubated with OLA. The activation of p53 and ATM gene was assessed by exposure to OLA. Furthermore, NAC reduced DNA migration, ROS formation, GSH depletion and the expression of the p53 protein and gene. And desipramine significantly decreased AO fluorescence intensity and the expression of the p53 protein and gene. These results support the assumption that OLA exerted genotoxic effects and induced DNA strand breaks in HEK293 cells, possibly through lysosomal-mitochondrial pathway involving ROS production and p53 activation.
