Transgenerational Transmission of 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) Effects in Human Granulosa Cells: The Role of MicroRNAs. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:1144. [PMID: 38256218 PMCID: PMC10816780 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25021144] [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: 11/26/2023] [Revised: 12/27/2023] [Accepted: 12/27/2023] [Indexed: 01/24/2024] Open
Abstract
Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) might contribute to the increase in female-specific cancers in Western countries. 2,3,7,8-tetrachlordibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) is considered the "prototypical toxicant" to study EDCs' effects on reproductive health. Epigenetic regulation by small noncoding RNAs (sncRNAs), such as microRNAs (miRNA), is crucial for controlling cancer development. The aim of this study was to analyze transcriptional activity and sncRNA expression changes in the KGN cell line after acute (3 h) and chronic (72 h) exposure to 10 nM TCDD in order to determine whether sncRNAs' deregulation may contribute to transmitting TCDD effects to the subsequent cell generations (day 9 and day 14 after chronic exposure). Using Affymetrix GeneChip miRNA 4.0 arrays, 109 sncRNAs were found to be differentially expressed (fold change < -2 or >2; p-value < 0.05) between cells exposed or not (control) to TCDD for 3 h and 72 h and on day 9 and day 14 after chronic exposure. Ingenuity Pathway Analysis predicted that following the acute and chronic exposure of KGN cells, sncRNAs linked to cellular development, growth and proliferation were downregulated, and those linked to cancer promotion were upregulated on day 9 and day 14. These results indicated that TCDD-induced sncRNA dysregulation may have transgenerational cancer-promoting effects.

Knock-down of aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) affects the lncRNA-mediated response of porcine granulosa cells (AVG-16 cell line) to 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD). Anim Reprod Sci 2023; 255:107277.

Abstract
Recently, we found that 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) - the most toxic dioxin - affected multiple cellular processes in AhR-knocked-down granulosa cells, including the expression of genes and the abundance of proteins. Such alterations may imply the involvement of noncoding RNAs in the remodeling of intracellular regulatory tracks. The aims of the current study were to examine the effects of TCDD on the expression of lncRNAs in AhR-knocked-down granulosa cells of pigs and to indicate potential target genes for differentially expressed lncRNAs (DELs). In the current study, the abundance of AhR protein in porcine granulosa cells was reduced by 98.9% at 24 h after AhR targeted siRNA transfection. Fifty-seven DELs were identified in the AhR-deficient cells treated with TCDD mostly after 3 h (3 h: 56, 12 h: 0, 24 h: 2) after the dioxin treatment. This number was 2.5 times higher than that of intact TCDD-treated granulosa cells. The high number of DELs identified in the early stages of the TCDD action may be associated with a rapid defensive response of cells to harmful actions of this persistent environmental pollutant. In contrast to intact TCDD-treated granulosa cells, AhR-deficient cells were characterized by a broader representation of DELs enriched in GO terms related to the immune response and regulation of transcription and cell cycle. The obtained results support the notion that TCDD may act in an AhR-independent manner. They increase our knowledge on the intracellular mechanism of TCDD action and may in the future contribute to better coping with detrimental consequences of human and animal exposure to TCDD.

Abstract
Taking excessive sodium fluoride may cause female reproductive dysfunction, but underlying molecular mechanism is unclear. The ovarian granulosa cells are the key endocrine cells releasing reproductive hormones. The miRNAs in the granulosa cells play an important function in regulating reproduction. The aim of this study is to explore the role of miRNAs in granulosa cell apoptosis and autophagy, as well as estradiol (E2) release in response to excessive sodium fluoride. The ovarian granulosa cells (KGN cells) were treated in vitro by different concentrations of sodium fluoride (NaF) for 24 h. The level of estradiol (E2) in the incubation medium was measured by ELISA kits. The total RNA and protein were collected and purified from KGN cells. The expression of miRNAs was detected by the real-time PCR. The signal molecules involved in cell apoptosis and autophagy were detected by the real-time PCR and Western blotting. Six miRNAs in granulosa cells were significantly up- or downregulated by NaF and selected for real-time PCR analysis. The miR-378d was the most significantly upregulated one dose dependently by NaF. It was positively correlated to the extent of apoptosis but negatively correlated to the level of autophagy in KGN cells in response to NaF. In addition, miR-378d promoted E2 release in response to 1 and 2 mM NaF but reduced E2 release in response to 4 and 8 mM NaF treatments. It is concluded that expression of miR-378d in ovarian granulosa cells is negatively correlated to the autophagy and E2 release and positively correlated to cell apoptosis under the influence of NaF.

Abstract
Xenoestrogens and phytoestrogens are referred to as "foreign estrogens" that are produced outside of the human body and have been shown to exert estrogen-like activity. Xenoestrogens are synthetic industrial chemicals, whereas phytoestrogens are chemicals present in the plant. Considering that these environmental estrogen mimics potentially promote hormone-related cancers, an understanding of how they interact with estrogenic pathways in human cells is crucial to resolve their possible impacts in cancer. Here, we conducted an extensive literature evaluation on the origins of these chemicals, emerging research techniques, updated molecular mechanisms, and ongoing clinical studies of estrogen mimics in human cancers. In this review, we describe new applications of patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models and single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) techniques in shaping the current knowledge. At the molecular and cellular levels, we provide comprehensive and up-to-date insights into the mechanism of xenoestrogens and phytoestrogens in modulating the hallmarks of cancer. At the systemic level, we bring the emerging concept of window of susceptibility (WOS) into focus. WOS is the critical timing during the female lifespan that includes the prenatal, pubertal, pregnancy, and menopausal transition periods, during which the mammary glands are more sensitive to environmental exposures. Lastly, we reviewed 18 clinical trials on the application of phytoestrogens in the prevention or treatment of different cancers, conducted from 2002 to the present, and provide evidence-based perspectives on the clinical applications of phytoestrogens in cancers. Further research with carefully thought-through concepts and advanced methods on environmental estrogens will help to improve understanding for the identification of environmental influences, as well as provide novel mechanisms to guide the development of prevention and therapeutic approaches for human cancers.

Abstract
Studies investigating aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR)-active compounds in the environment typically focus on non- and mid-polar substances, such as PAHs; while, information on polar AhR agonists remains limited. Here, we identified polar AhR agonists in sediments collected from the inland creeks of an industrialized area (Lake Sihwa, Korea) using effect-directed analysis combined with full-scan screening analysis (FSA; using LC-QTOFMS). Strong AhR-mediated potencies were observed for the polar and latter fractions of RP-HPLC (F3.5-F3.8) from sediment organic extracts in the H4IIE-luc in vitro bioassays. FSA was performed on the corresponding fractions. Twenty-eight tentative AhR agonists were chosen using a five-step process. Toxicological confirmation using bioassay revealed that canrenone, rutaecarpine, ciprofloxacin, mepanipyrim, genistein, protopine, hydrocortisone, and medroxyprogesterone were significantly active. The relative potencies of these AhR-active compounds compared to that of benzo[a]pyrene ranged from 0.00002 to 2.0. Potency balance analysis showed that polar AhR agonists explained, on average, ~6% of total AhR-mediated potencies in samples. Some novel polar AhR agonists also exhibited endocrine-disrupting potentials capable of binding to estrogen and glucocorticoid receptors, as identified by QSAR modeling. In conclusion, the focused studies on distributions, sources, fate, and ecotoxicological effects of novel polar AhR agonists in the environment are necessary.

Abstract
Genistein is an isoflavone first isolated from the brooming plant Dyer's Genista tinctoria L. and is widely distributed in the Fabaceae family. As an isoflavone, mammalian genistein exerts estrogen-like functions. Several biological effects of genistein have been reported in preclinical studies, such as the antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antiviral activities, the effects of angiogenesis and estrogen, and the pharmacological activities on diabetes and lipid metabolism. The purpose of this review is to provide up-to-date evidence of preclinical pharmacological activities with mechanisms of action, bioavailability, and clinical evidence of genistein. The literature was researched using the most important keyword "genistein" from the PubMed, Science, and Google Scholar databases, and the taxonomy was validated using The Plant List. Data were also collected from specialized books and other online resources. The main positive effects of genistein refer to the protection against cardiovascular diseases and to the decrease of the incidence of some types of cancer, especially breast cancer. Although the mechanism of protection against cancer involves several aspects of genistein metabolism, the researchers attribute this effect to the similarity between the structure of soy genistein and that of estrogen. This structural similarity allows genistein to displace estrogen from cellular receptors, thus blocking their hormonal activity. The pharmacological activities resulting from the experimental studies of this review support the traditional uses of genistein, but in the future, further investigations are needed on the efficacy, safety, and use of nanotechnologies to increase bioavailability and therapeutic efficacy.

Abstract
Dioxins are a group of highly toxic environmental persistent organic pollutants, which are lipophilic in nature. 2, 3, 7, 8- tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) is the most toxic representative of this class. TCDD causes several human health effects like endocrine disruption, carcinogenesis and reproductive toxicity mediated by aryl-hydrocarbon receptor. Current detection methods of dioxins like gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry etc. are costly and time consuming. Therefore, the present study aims to develop a relatively faster and cheaper technique called reverse transcription-loop mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) assay to detect dioxins. Cultured granulosa cells used as a model system were treated with different doses (5, 10 and 15 pg/mL) of aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR)responsive xenobiotic, TCDD, in accordance with maximum residue limit values. Cells were treated for 6, 12 and 24 h, respectively to study the gene expression of TCDD receptor called AhR and AhR responsive genes, CYP1A1 and CYP1B1, in a dose and time dependent manner. All targeted genes expression significantly increased after 6 and 12 h by 1.3-8 folds. For the development of RT-LAMP assay, CYP1A1 gene was used with 6 h TCDD treatment. RT-LAMP assay was standardized with optimal color change at 30 min using 50 ng of cellular RNA. In all the cases, we could distinguish RT-LAMP-positive condition from one sample to another sample due to intensity of color. The method was also validated by spectrometric method. In conclusion, the developed method will be used to screen AhR receptor responsive xenobiotics by observing the color change in RT-LAMP assay like dioxin used in the present study.

Abstract
Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are compounds that interfere with the expression, synthesis, and activity of hormones in organisms. They are released into the environment from flame retardants and products containing plasticizers. Persistent pesticides, such as dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) and hexachlorobenzene, also disrupt the endocrine system through interaction with hormone receptors. Endogenous hormones, such as 17β-estradiol (E2), are released in the urine and feces of farm animals and seep into terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems through sewage. Pigs are widely used as animal models to determine the effects of EDCs because they are physiologically, biochemically, and histologically similar to humans. EDCs primarily disrupt the reproductive and nervous systems of pigs. Moreover, embryonic development during the prenatal and early postnatal periods is particularly sensitive to EDCs. Mycotoxins, such as zearalenone, are food contaminants that alter hormonal activities in pigs. Mycotoxins also alter the innate immune system in pigs, making them vulnerable to diseases. It has been reported that farm animals are exposed to various types of EDCs, which accumulate in tissues, such as those of gonads, livers, and intestines. There is a lack of an integrated understanding of the impact of EDCs on porcine reproduction and development. Thus, this article aims to provide a comprehensive review of literature regarding the effects of EDCs in pigs.

[PMID: 32002328 PMCID: PMC6982409 DOI: 10.7717/peerj.8371] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2019] [Accepted: 12/09/2019] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Background 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) is a toxic man-made chemical, adversely affecting reproductive processes. The well-characterized canonical mechanism of TCDD action involves the activation of aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) pathway, but AhR-independent mechanisms were also suggested. By applying RNA interference technology and Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) we aimed to identify genes involved in the mechanism of TCDD action in AhR knock-down porcine granulosa cells. Methods Porcine granulosa cells were transfected with small interfering RNAs targeting mRNA of AhR. After transfection, medium was exchanged and the AhR knock-down cells were treated with TCDD (100 nM) for 3, 12 or 24 h, total cellular RNA was isolated and designated for NGS. Following sequencing, differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified. To analyze functions and establish possible interactions of DEGs, the Gene Ontology (GO) database and the Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes (STRING) database were used, respectively. Results The AhR gene expression level and protein abundance were significantly decreased after AhR-targeted siRNAs transfection of the cells. In TCDD-treated AhR knock-down cells we identified 360 differentially expressed genes (DEGs; P-adjusted < 0.05 and log2 fold change [log2FC] ≥ 1.0). The functional enrichment analysis of DEGs revealed that TCDD influenced the expression of genes involved, among other, in the metabolism of vitamin A, follicular development and oocyte maturation, proliferation and differentiation as well as inflammation, stress response, apoptosis and oncogenesis. The three-time point study demonstrated that TCDD-induced changes in the transcriptome of AhR knock-down porcine granulosa cells were especially pronounced during the early stages of the treatment (3 h). Conclusions TCDD affected the transcriptome of AhR knock-down porcine granulosa cells. The molecules involved in the AhR-independent action of TCDD were indicated in the study. The obtained data contribute to better understanding of molecular processes induced by xenobiotics in the ovary.

Abstract
2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) is a toxic man-made chemical compound contaminating the environment and affecting human/animal health and reproduction. Intracellular TCDD action usually involves the activation of aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR). The aim of the current study was to examine TCDD-induced changes in the proteome of AhR-silenced porcine granulosa cells. The AhR-silenced cells were treated with TCDD (100 nM) for 3, 12 or 24 h. Total protein was isolated, labeled with cyanines and next, the samples were separated by isoelectric focusing and SDS-PAGE. Proteins of interest were identified by MALDI-TOF/TOF mass spectrometry (MS) analysis and confirmed by western blotting and fluorescence immunocytochemistry. The AhR-targeted siRNA transfection reduced the granulosal expression level of AhR by 60–70%. In AhR-silenced porcine granulosa cells, TCDD influenced the abundance of only three proteins: annexin V, protein disulfide isomerase and ATP synthase subunit beta. The obtained results revealed the ability of TCDD to alter protein abundance in an AhR-independent manner. This study offers a new insight into the mechanism of TCDD action and provide directions for future functional studies focused on molecular effects exerted by TCDD.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2019; 674:71-76. [PMID: 31004905 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2019.03.467] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2019] [Revised: 03/25/2019] [Accepted: 03/30/2019] [Indexed: 06/09/2023]
Abstract
The objective of the research is to study the action of Vitellogenin and P-4501A1 following coexposure at different times to genistein and PCB-126 using zebrafish as a model system. Polychlorinated biphenyls are ubiquitous substances in environment. The genistein is a phytoestrogen extracted from soybeans and it's contained in food for humans and animals. For this study, 200 adult zebrafish were used. Our findings show a marked immunoreactivity of Vtg at 12h in liver than the control with only PCB-126. Regarding effects of PCB-126 on Vtg after pretreatment with genistein in fishes, the immunohistochemistry results show a minor increase at 12h. After 24h the immunoreactivity is lower than 12h and then slightly increased at 72h with only PCB-126 and PCB-126 and genistein together. CYP1A1 progressively increases from 12h to 72h in all groups with minor immunoreactivity when we treated fish with genistein and PCB-126. We show a reduction in the estrogenic effect when the fishes were treated with genistein and PCB-126 together at 12h than the group treated with only PCB-126. Moreover, low concentrations of genistein decrease the marked P450 expression induced by PCB-126. This shows that genistein decreases the expression of P450 target genes mediated by AhR.

Temporal changes in the transcriptomic profile of granulosa cells of pigs treated with 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin. Anim Reprod Sci 2019; 207:83-94. [PMID: 31213330 DOI: 10.1016/j.anireprosci.2019.06.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2019] [Revised: 05/15/2019] [Accepted: 06/04/2019] [Indexed: 01/17/2023]
Abstract
The 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) compound is an environmental chemical adversely affecting reproductive processes. Intracellular TCDD effects are mediated via aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR). The aim of the current study was to identify genes linking the AhR pathway with phenotypic consequences of TCDD action in granulosa cells of pigs. By applying multifactorial analysis, with TCDD and incubation time as factors, it was possible to determine temporal changes induced by TCDD in the cell transcriptome. Among the identified 144 differentially expressed genes (DEGs; Padjusted<0.05, log2 fold change (FC)≥1), 111 DEGs were classified as sustained genes (FC values changing between 3 and 24 h). Eighty six DEGs were classified as early genes and only nine as late genes (FC changes observed between 3 and 12 h or 12 and 24 h, respectively). The sustained gene category included genes related to TCDD mechanism of action (AHR, ARNTL, CYP1A1), cell proliferation (TGFβ3), follicular development and ovulation (PTGS2) as well as stress response (NR3C1). The early gene category contained DEGs associated with cell proliferation (DUSP4, TAB1) and cellular response to stress (DHX34). The CYP1A1 gene was the only DEG classified as an early, late and sustained gene. The multifactorial approach allowed for statistically analyzing TCDD-induced changes over time in the gene expression in granulosa cells of pigs. Changes over time in the granulosal transcriptome profile indicated the involvement of stress related molecules in the cellular response to TCDD and TCDD effects on ovulation. The TCDD effects were particularly evident during the early stage of action by this compound.

Abstract
Background Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) may regulate gene expression in numerous biological processes including cellular response to xenobiotics. The exposure of living organisms to 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD), a persistent environmental contaminant, results in reproductive defects in many species including pigs. The aims of the study were to identify and characterize lncRNAs in porcine granulosa cells as well as to examine the effects of TCDD on the lncRNA expression profile in the cells. Results One thousand six hundred sixty-six lncRNAs were identified and characterized in porcine granulosa cells. The identified lncRNAs were found to be shorter than mRNAs. In addition, the number of exons was lower in lncRNAs than in mRNAs and their exons were longer. TCDD affected the expression of 22 lncRNAs (differentially expressed lncRNAs [DELs]; log2 fold change ≥ 1, P-adjusted < 0.05) in the examined cells. Potential functions of DELs were indirectly predicted via searching their target cis- and trans-regulated protein-coding genes. The co-expression analysis revealed that DELs may influence the expression of numerous genes, including those involved in cellular response to xenobiotics, dioxin metabolism, endoplasmic reticulum stress and cell proliferation. Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) and cytochrome P450 1A1 (CYP1A1) were found among the trans-regulated genes. Conclusions These findings indicate that the identified lncRNAs may constitute a part of the regulatory mechanism of TCDD action in granulosa cells. To our knowledge, this is the first study describing lncRNAs in porcine granulosa cells as well as TCDD effects on the lncRNA expression profile. These results may trigger new research directions leading to better understanding of molecular processes induced by xenobiotics in the ovary.
