JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 471:134389. [PMID: 38669931 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2024.134389] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/27/2023] [Revised: 02/19/2024] [Accepted: 04/21/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024]
Abstract
Tris(2,4-di-tert-butylphenyl)phosphate (AO168 =O), a novel organophosphate ester, is prevalent and abundant in the environment, posing great exposure risks to ecological and public health. Nevertheless, the toxicological effects of AO168 =O remain entirely unknown to date. The results in this study indicated that acute exposure to AO168 =O at 10 and 100 μg/L for 5 days obviously impaired cardiac morphology and function of zebrafish larvae, as proofed by decreased heartbeat, stroke volume, and cardiac output and the occurrence of pericardial edema and ventricular hypertrophy. Transcriptomics, polymerase chain reaction, and molecular docking revealed that the strong interaction of AO168 =O and transferrin receptor 1 activated the transportation of ferric iron into intracellular environment. The release of free ferrous ion to cytoplasmic iron pool also contributed to the iron overload in heart region, thus inducing ferroptosis in larvae via generation of excessive reactive oxygen species, glutathione peroxidase 4 inhibition, glutathione depletion and lipid peroxidation. Ferroptosis inhibitor (Fer-1) co-exposure effectively relieved the cardiac dysfunctions of zebrafish, verifying the dominant role of ferroptosis in the cardiotoxicity caused by AO168 =O. This research firstly reported the adverse impact and associated mechanisms of AO168 =O in cardiomyogenesis of vertebrates, underlining the urgency of concerning the health risks of AO168 =O.

Jia X, Meng L, Tang W, Sun L, Peng F, Zhang P. Impact of the gene polymorphisms in the renin-angiotensin system on cardiomyopathy risk: A meta-analysis. PLoS One 2024; 19:e0295626. [PMID: 38166133 PMCID: PMC10760857 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0295626] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/25/2023] [Accepted: 11/22/2023] [Indexed: 01/04/2024] Open
Abstract
Due to the inconsistent findings from various studies, the role of gene polymorphisms in the renin-angiotensin system in influencing the development of cardiomyopathy remains unclear. In this study, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to summarize the findings regarding the impact of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) I/D, angiotensinogen (AGT) M235T, and angiotensin II Type 1 receptor (AGTR1) A1166C gene polymorphisms in patients with cardiomyopathy. We performed a comprehensive search of several electronic databases, including PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, and Web of Science, covering articles published from the time of database creation to April 17, 2023. Studies on the assessment of genetic polymorphisms in genes related to the renin-angiotensin system in relation to cardiomyopathy were included. The primary outcome was cardiomyopathy. Risk of bias was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale scale. The meta-analysis includes 19 studies with 4,052 cases and 5,592 controls. The ACE I/D polymorphisms were found to be associated with cardiomyopathy (allelic model D vs I: OR = 1.29, 95CI% = 1.08-1.52; dominant model DD+ID vs II: OR = 1.43, 95CI% = 1.01-2.02; recessive model DD vs ID+II: OR = 0.79, 95CI% = 0.64-0.98). AGT M235T polymorphism and cardiomyopathy were not significantly correlated (allelic model T vs M: OR = 1.26, 95CI% = 0.96-1.66; dominant model TT+MT vs MM: OR = 1.30, 95CI% = 0.98-1.73; recessive model TT vs MT+MM: OR = 0.63, 95CI% = 0.37-1.07). AGTR1 polymorphism and cardiomyopathy were not significantly associated under allelic model A vs C (OR = 0.69, 95CI% = 0.46-1.03) and recessive model AA vs CA+CC (OR = 0.89, 95CI% = 0.34-2.30), but under the dominant model AA+CA vs CC (OR = 0.51, 95CI% = 0.38-0.68). The current meta-analysis reveals that polymorphisms in ACE I/D may be a genetic risk factor for cardiomyopathy. There is an association between AGTR1 gene polymorphisms and risk of cardiomyopathy under the specific model.
