Then C, Miyazaki J, Bauer-Panskus A. Deficiencies in the Risk Assessment of Genetically Engineered Bt Cowpea Approved for Cultivation in Nigeria: A Critical Review. PLANTS 2022; 11:plants11030380. [PMID: 35161361 PMCID: PMC8838765 DOI: 10.3390/plants11030380] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/29/2021] [Revised: 01/22/2022] [Accepted: 01/25/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
We analyze the application filed for the marketing and cultivation of genetically engineered Bt cowpea (event AAT 709A) approved in Nigeria in 2019. Cowpea (Vigna ungiguiculata) is extensively grown throughout sub-Saharan Africa and consumed by around two hundred million people. The transgenic plants produce an insecticidal, recombinant Bt toxin meant to protect the plants against the larvae of Maruca vitrata, which feed on the plants and are also known as pod borer. Our analysis of the application reveals issues of concern regarding the safety of the Bt toxins produced in the plants. These concerns include stability of gene expression, impact on soil organisms, effects on non-target species and food safety. In addition, we show deficiencies in the risk assessment of potential gene flow and uncontrolled spread of the transgenes and cultivated varieties as well as the maintenance of seed collections. As far as information is publicly available, we analyze the application by referring to established standards of GMO risk assessment. We take the provisions of the Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety (CPB) into account, of which both Nigeria and the EU are parties. We also refer to the EU standards for GMO risk assessment, which are complementary to the provisions of the CPB.

BREAST CANCER: BASIC AND CLINICAL RESEARCH 2022; 16:11782234211065154. [PMID: 35002244 PMCID: PMC8738886 DOI: 10.1177/11782234211065154] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2021] [Accepted: 11/17/2021] [Indexed: 12/07/2022] Open
Abstract
The Cry1Ac protoxin from Bacillus thuringiensis is a systemic
and mucosal adjuvant, able to confer protective immunity in different infection
murine models and induce both Th1 and TCD8+ cytotoxic lymphocyte responses,
which are required to induce antitumor immunity. The Cry1Ac toxin, despite
having not being characterized as an adjuvant, has also proved to be immunogenic
and able to activate macrophages. Here, we investigated the potential antitumor
adjuvant effect conferred by the Cry1Ac protoxin and Cry1Ac toxin in a triple
negative breast cancer (TNBC) murine model. First, we evaluated the ability of
Cry1Ac proteins to improve dendritic cell (DC) activation and cellular response
through intraperitoneal (i.p.) coadministration with the 4T1 cellular lysate.
Mice coadministered with the Cry1Ac protoxin showed an increase in the number
and activation of CD11c+MHCII- and CD11c+MHCII+low in the peritoneal
cavity and an increase in DC activation (CD11c+MHCII+) in the spleen. Cry1Ac
protoxin increased the proliferation of TCD4+ and TCD8+ lymphocytes in the
spleen and mesenteric lymph nodes (MLN), while the Cry1Ac toxin only increased
the proliferation of TCD4+ and TCD8+ in the MLN. Remarkably, when tested in the
in vivo TNBC mouse model, prophylactic immunizations with 4T1 lysates plus the
Cry1Ac protoxin protected mice from developing tumors. The antitumor effect
conferred by the Cry1Ac protoxin also increased specific cytotoxic T cell
responses, and prevented the typical tumor-related decrease of T cells
(TCD3+ and TCD4+) as well the increase of myeloid-derived suppressor cells
(MDSC) in spleen. Also in the tumor microenvironment of mice coadministered
twice with Cry1Ac protoxin immunological improvements were found such as
reductions in immunosupressive populations (T regulatory lymphocytes and MDSC)
along with increases in macrophages upregulating CD86. These results show a
differential antitumor adjuvant capability of Cry1Ac proteins, highlighting the
ability of Cry1Ac protoxin to enhance local and systemic tumor immunity in TNBC.
Finally, using a therapeutic approach, we evaluated the coadministration of
Cry1Ac protoxin with doxorubicin. A significant reduction in tumor volume and
lung metastasis was found, with increased intratumoral levels of tumor necrosis
factor-α and IL-6 with respect to the vehicle group, further supporting its
antitumor applicability.

Abstract
A hallmark of Bacillus thuringiensis bacteria is the formation of one or more parasporal crystal (Cry) proteins during sporulation. The toxicity of these proteins is highly specific to insect larvae, exerting lethal effects in different insect species but not in humans or other mammals. The aim of this review is to summarize previous findings on Bacillus thuringiensis, including the characteristics of the bacterium, its subsequent contribution to biotechnology as a bioinsecticide due to the presence of Cry proteins, and its potential application as an adjuvant. In several studies, Cry proteins have been administered together with specific antigens to immunize experimental animal models. The results have shown that these proteins can enhance immunogenicity by generating an adequate immune response capable of protecting the model against an experimental infectious challenge, whereas protection is decreased when the specific antigen is administered without the Cry protein. Therefore, based on previous results and the structural homology between Cry proteins, these molecules have arisen as potential adjuvants in the development of vaccines for both animals and humans. Finally, a model of the interaction of Cry proteins with different components of the immune response is proposed.

Differential capability of Bacillus thuringiensis Cry1Ac protoxin and toxin to induce in vivo activation of dendritic cells and B lymphocytes. DEVELOPMENTAL AND COMPARATIVE IMMUNOLOGY 2021; 121:104071. [PMID: 33766585 DOI: 10.1016/j.dci.2021.104071] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2020] [Revised: 03/08/2021] [Accepted: 03/09/2021] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
The insecticidal Bacillus thuringiensis protein Cry1Ac is produced as a protoxin and becomes activated to a toxin when ingested by larvae. Both proteins are immunogenic and able to activate macrophages. The proposed mechanism of immunostimulation by Cry1Ac protoxin has been related to its capacity to activate antigen-presenting cells (APC), but its ability to activate dendritic cells (DC) has not been explored. Here we evaluated, in the popliteal lymph nodes (PLN), spleen and peritoneum, the activation of DC CD11c+ MHC-II+ following injection with single doses (50 μg) of Cry1Ac toxin or protoxin via the intradermal (i.d.) and intraperitoneal (i.p.) routes in C57BL/6 mice. In vivo stimulation with both Cry1Ac proteins induced activation of DC via upregulation of CD86, primarily in PLN 24 h after i. d. injection. Moreover, this activation was detected in DC, displaying CD103+, a typical marker of migratory DC, while upregulation of CD80 was uniquely induced by toxin. Tracking experiments showed that Cy5-labeled Cry1Ac proteins could rapidly reach the PLN and localize near DC, but some label remained in the footpad. When the capacity of Cry1Ac-activated DC to induce antigen presentation was examined, significant proliferation of naïve T lymphocytes was induced exclusively by the protoxin. The protoxin elicited a Th17-biased cytokine profile. Moreover, only the Cry1Ac toxin induced a pronounced proliferation of B cells from both untreated and Cry1Ac-injected mice, suggesting that it acts as a polyclonal activator. In conclusion, Cry1Ac protoxin and toxin show a distinctive capacity to activate APCs.

Abstract
Infectious diseases represent a major cause of deaths worldwide. No vaccine or effective treatment exists nowadays, especially against intracellular pathogens. The increase in multiple drug and superbug antibiotic resistance strains, excessive medication, or misuse of drugs has prompted the search for other safe and effective alternatives. Consistent with this, adjuvants (Latin word "adjuvare": "help or aid") co-administered (Exo) in vaccines have emerged as a promising alternative to initiate and boost an innate, downstream signal that led to adaptative immune response. Nowadays, a promising model of strong immunogens and adjuvants at mucosal sites are the microbial bacterial toxins. Other adjuvants that are also used and might successfully replace aluminum salts in combination with nanotechnology are CpG-ODN, poly IC, type I IFNs, mRNA platforms. Therefore, in the present review, we focused to revisit the old to the new adjuvants compounds, the properties that make them friends in vaccine formulations against infectious diseases.

Abstract
Here, we aimed to further characterize the mechanisms involved in protoxin (p) Cry1Ac-induced macrophage activation. We demonstrated that pCry1Ac induces MAPK ERK1/2, p38, and JNK phosphorylation in RAW264.7 macrophages. Because MAPK activation is mainly triggered via ligand-receptor interactions, we focused on the identification of potential pCry1Ac-receptor proteins. Flow cytometry and confocal analysis showed specific saturable pCry1Ac-binding to the macrophage surface and evidenced its internalization via the clathrin-pathway. We performed immunoprecipitation assays and identified by MALDI-TOF-TOF several possible pCry1Ac-binding proteins, such as heat shock proteins (HSPs), vimentin, α-enolase, and actin; whose interaction and presence was confirmed, respectively, by ligand blot and Western blot assays. We also detected cell-surface (cs) pCry1Ac-HSP70 colocalization, so HSP70 was chosen for further characterization. Co-immunoprecipitation with HSP70 antibodies followed by Western blot confirmed the pCry1Ac-HSP70 interaction. Furthermore, pretreatment of RAW264.7 cells with HSP70 antibodies reduced pCry1Ac-induced ERK1 phosphorylation and MCP-1 production; thus suggest the functional participation of csHSP70 in pCry1Ac-induced macrophage activation. csHSP70 also was evaluated in peritoneal-cavity (PerC) macrophages of untreated BALB/c mice, interestingly it was found that the predominant population namely large-peritoneal-macrophages (LPM) displayed csHSP70 + hi. Furthermore, the dynamics of PerC macrophage subsets, LPM, and small-peritoneal macrophages (SPM) were evaluated in response to in vivo pCry1Ac stimuli in presence or not of phenylethynesulfonamide (PES) a functional HSP70 inhibitor. It was found that pCry1Ac increased the proportion of SPM CD11b + F4/80 + lowMHCII + csHSP70 + low and markedly reduced the amount of LPM CD11b + F4/80 + hiMHCII-csHSP70 + hi; while PES, partially suppressed this pCry1Ac-induced effect, further suggesting the participation of HSP70 in macrophage activation process.

Cry1Ac toxin induces macrophage activation via ERK1/2, JNK and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinases. Int J Biochem Cell Biol 2016; 78:106-115.

Abstract
The Cry1Ac toxin from Bacillus thuringiensis is used commercially as a bio-insecticide and is expressed in transgenic plants that are used for human and animal consumption. Although it was originally considered innocuous for mammals, the Cry1Ac toxin is not inert and has the ability to induce mucosal and systemic immunogenicity. Herein, we examined whether the Cry1Ac toxin promotes macrophage activation and explored the signalling pathways that may mediate this effect. Treatment of primary and RAW264.7 macrophages with the Cry1Ac toxin resulted in upregulation of the costimulatory molecules CD80, CD86 and ICOS-L and enhanced production of nitric oxide, the chemokine MCP-1 and the proinflammatory cytokines TNF-α and IL-6. Remarkably, the Cry1Ac toxin induced phosphorylation of the mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) ERK1/2, JNK and p38 and promoted nuclear translocation of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) p50 and p65. p38 and ERK1/2 MAPKs were involved in this effect, as indicated by the Cry1Ac-induced upregulation of CD80 and IL-6 and TNF-α abrogation by the p38 MAPK inhibitor SB203580. Furthermore, treatment the MEK1/2 kinase inhibitor PD98059 blocked increases in MCP-1 secretion and augmented Cry1Ac-induced ICOS-L upregulation. These data demonstrate the capacity of the Cry1Ac toxin to induce macrophage activation via the MAPK and NF-κB pathways.

Abstract
Crystal proteins (Cry) produced during the growth and sporulation phases of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) bacterium are known as delta endotoxins. These toxins are being used worldwide as bioinsecticides to control pests in agriculture, and some Cry toxins are used against mosquitoes to control vector transmission. This review summarizes the relevant information currently available regarding the biosafety and biological effects that Bt and its insecticidal Cry proteins elicit in mammals. This work was performed because of concerns regarding the possible health impact of Cry toxins on vertebrates, particularly because Bt toxins might be associated with immune-activating or allergic responses. The controversial data published to date are discussed in this review considering earlier toxicological studies of B. thuringiensis, spores, toxins and Bt crops. We discussed the experimental studies performed in humans, mice, rats and sheep as well as in diverse mammalian cell lines. Although the term 'toxic' is not appropriate for defining the effects these toxins have on mammals, they cannot be considered innocuous, as they have some physiological effects that may become pathological; thus, trials that are more comprehensive are necessary to determine their effects on mammals because knowledge in this field remains limited.
