Abstract
Benzo[a]pyrene (BaP), a widely existed polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon pollutant in aquatic environment, has toxic effects on marine animals and their generations, but the intergenerational immunotoxic mechanism underlying has not been clearly understood. In the study, the offspring of marine medaka (oryzias melastigma) which were exposed to 0.5 μg L-1 BaP suffered from circadian rhythm oscillation disorders and severe DNA damage. Many clock-associated genes like per1 were significantly modulated in offspring, both per1 and p53 were significantly inhibited that altered the progression of cell cycle and inhibited DNA repair, which possibly resulted in the increased mortality of offspring. The hypermethylation of the per1 promotor and abnormal levels of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) suggested that the underlying mechanism was probably related to the epigenetic modification. Moreover, the offspring from paternal BaP exposure had more severe DNA damage and a higher degree of hypermethylation than those from maternal exposure. F1 larvae from BaP-exposed parents were more sensitive to BaP exposure, showing that the expression of immune and metabolism-related genes were significantly up-regulated. Taken together, the parental toxicity induced by BaP could be passed to F1 generation and the mechanism underlying was probably associated with a characteristic circadian rhythm disorder.

The effect of inhibitors of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-related kinases on dibenzo[def,p]chrysene genotoxicity measured by γH2AX levels and neutral comet assay in HepG2 human hepatocellular cancer cells. Toxicol In Vitro 2019; 63:104749. [PMID: 31838185 DOI: 10.1016/j.tiv.2019.104749] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2019] [Revised: 12/11/2019] [Accepted: 12/11/2019] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
In the study the modulating effect of inhibition of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-related kinases (PIKK): ATM (Ataxia Telangiectasia Mutated), ATR (Ataxia Telangiectasia and Rad3 Related) and DNA-PK (DNA-dependent protein kinase) on genotoxicity of dibenzo[def,p]chrysene (DBC) in HepG2 human hepatocellular cancer cells was investigated. The cytotoxicity of DBC was determined, also in combination with PIKK inhibitors, using the MTT reduction assay. The high cytotoxicity of DBC was observed after 72 h incubation (IC50 = 0.06 μM). The PIKK inhibitors applied at non-cytotoxic concentrations: caffeine (1 mM) and KU55933 (2.5 μM) had no significant influence on the DBC cytotoxicity, however NU7026 (5 μM) caused significant increase in the cell viability by about 25%. The combinations of the inhibitors (double or triple) where NU7026 was present also caused increase in the cell viability (i.e. cytoprotective effect) compared to the effect of DBC. The level of damage to the genetic material (DNA double strand breaks, DSB) was assessed by measuring levels of phosphorylated form of H2A histone (γH2AX) and neutral comet assay. DBC induced DSB in a concentration and time-dependent manner. NU7026 considerably reduced the level of DSB level measured by γH2AX and comet assay. The obtained results confirm that DBC is cytotoxic and causes damage to the genetic material including DSB. The DNA-PK inhibitor NU7026 increases cell viability after exposure to DBC and reduces DNA damage, what indicates an important role of the sensor kinase in mediating the effect.

Abstract
Recent studies have identified carbon nanotube (CNT)-induced epigenetic changes as one of the key players in patho-physiological response. In the present study, we investigated whether CNT exposure is associated with epigenetic changes in human bronchial epithelial cells (16 HBE), in vitro. We focused on global DNA methylation, methylation of LINE-1 elements and promoter sequence of twelve functionally important genes (SKI, DNMT1, HDAC4, NPAT, ATM, BCL2L11, MAP3K10, PIK3R2, MYO1C, TCF3, FGFR 1 and AGRN). Additionally, we studied the influence of CNT exposure on miRNA expression. Using a LC-MS/MS method and pyrosequencing for LINE-1, we observed no significant changes in global DNA methylation (%) between the concentrations of multi-walled and single-walled CNT (MWCNT and SWCNT, respectively). Significant changes in sequence-specific methylation was observed in at least one CpG site for DNMT1 (SWCNT), HDAC4 (MWCNT), NPAT/ATM (MWCNT and SWCNT), MAP3K10 (MWCNT), PIK3R2 (MWCNT and SWCNT) and MYO1C (SWCNT). While changes in DNA methylation of the genes were relatively small, these changes were associated with changes in RNA expression, especially for MWCNT. However, the study did not reveal any significant alteration in the miRNA expression, associated with MWCNT and SWCNT exposure. Based on our results, mainly MWCNT influence DNA methylation and expression of the studied genes and could have significant impact on several critical cellular processes.

Abstract
Data in this article depict patterns of methylation in lung tissues obtained from the offspring of B6129SF1/J dams and 129S1/SvImJ sires exposed in utero to benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) or dibenzo[def,p]chrysene (DBC) as compared to non-exposed offspring. Genome-wide methylation of lung tumors in adult offspring was determined using methylated DNA immunoprecipitation (MeDIP) with the NimbleGen mouse DNA methylation CpG island array. This data article refers to the research article “DNA methylation in lung tissues of mouse offspring exposed in utero to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons,” [1] in which comprehensive data interpretation and analysis are provided.
