Interaction of mycotoxins zearalenone, α-zearalenol, and β-zearalenol with cytochrome P450 (CYP1A2, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, and 3A4) enzymes and organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATP1A2, OATP1B1, OATP1B3, and OATP2B1).

Abstract
Zearalenone (ZEN) is a mycoestrogen produced by Fusarium fungi. ZEN is a frequent contaminant in cereal-based products, representing significant health threat. The major reduced metabolites of ZEN are α-zearalenol (α-ZEL) and β-zearalenol (β-ZEL). Since the toxicokinetic interactions of ZEN/ZELs with cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYPs) and organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATPs) have been barely characterized, we examined these interactions applying in vitro models. ZEN and ZELs were relatively strong inhibitors of CYP3A4 and moderate inhibitors of CYP1A2 and CYP2C9. Both CYP1A2 and CYP3A4 decreased ZEN and β-ZEL concentrations in depletion assays, while only CYP1A2 reduced α-ZEL levels. OATPs tested were strongly or moderately inhibited by ZEN and ZELs; however, these mycotoxins did not show higher cytotoxicity in OATP-overexpressing cells. Our results help the deeper understanding of the toxicokinetic/pharmacokinetic interactions of ZEN, α-ZEL, and β-ZEL.

Abstract
Mangoes have a unique nutrient profile (carotenoids, polyphenols, sugars, and vitamins) that we hypothesized would mitigate post-exercise inflammation. This study examined the effects of mango ingestion on moderating exercise-induced inflammation in a randomized crossover trial with 22 cyclists. In random order with trials separated by a 2-week washout period, the cyclists ingested 330 g mango/day with 0.5 L water or 0.5 L of water alone for 2 weeks, followed by a 2.25 h cycling bout challenge. Blood and urine samples were collected pre- and post-2 weeks of supplementation, with additional blood samples collected immediately post-exercise and 1.5-h, 3-h, and 24 h post-exercise. Urine samples were analyzed for targeted mango-related metabolites. The blood samples were analyzed for 67 oxylipins, which are upstream regulators of inflammation and other physiological processes. After 2 weeks of mango ingestion, three targeted urine mango-related phenolic metabolites were significantly elevated compared to water alone (interaction effects, p ≤ 0.003). Significant post-exercise increases were measured for 49 oxylipins, but various subgroup analyses showed no differences in the pattern of change between trials (all interaction effects, p > 0.150). The 2.25 h cycling bouts induced significant inflammation, but no countermeasure effect was found after 2 weeks of mango ingestion despite the elevation of mango gut-derived phenolic metabolites.

Abstract
Luteolin, naringenin, myricetin, and ampelopsin are abundant flavonoids in nature, and several dietary supplements also contain them at very high doses. After the peroral intake, flavonoids go through extensive presystemic biotransformation; therefore, typically their sulfate/glucuronic acid conjugates reach high concentrations in the circulation. Xanthine oxidase (XO) enzyme is involved in uric acid production, and it also takes part in the elimination of certain drugs (e.g., 6-mercaptopurine). The inhibitory effects of flavonoid aglycones on XO have been widely studied; however, only limited data are available regarding their sulfate and glucuronic acid conjugates. In this study, we examined the impacts of luteolin, naringenin, myricetin, ampelopsin, and their sulfate/glucuronide derivatives on XO-catalyzed xanthine and 6-mercaptopurine oxidations employing in vitro enzyme incubation assays and molecular modeling studies. Our major results/conclusions are the following: (1) Sulfate metabolites were stronger while glucuronic acid derivatives were weaker inhibitors of XO compared to the parent flavonoids. (2) Naringenin, ampelopsin, and their metabolites were weak inhibitors of the enzyme. (3) Luteolin, myricetin, and their sulfates were highly potent inhibitors of XO, and the glucuronides of luteolin showed moderate inhibitory impacts. (4) Conjugated metabolites of luteolin and myricetin can be involved in the inhibitory effects of these flavonoids on XO enzyme.

Abstract
Malignant tumors remain one of the main sources of morbidity and mortality around the world. A chemotherapeutic approach to cancer treatment poses a multitude of challenges, primarily due to the low selectivity and genotoxicity of the majority of chemotherapeutic drugs currently used in the clinical practice, often leading to treatment-induced tumors formation. Highly selective antitumor drugs can largely resolve this issue, but their high selectivity leads to significant drawbacks due to the intrinsic tumor heterogeneity. In contrast, plant polyphenols can simultaneously affect many processes that are involved in the acquiring and maintaining of hallmark properties of malignant cells, and their toxic dose is typically much higher than the therapeutic one. In the present work we describe the mechanisms of the action of polyphenols on cancer cells, including their effects on genetic and epigenetic instability, tumor-promoting inflammation, and altered microbiota.

Front Physiol 2023; 14:1180896. [PMID: 37351262 PMCID: PMC10282659 DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2023.1180896] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2023] [Accepted: 05/22/2023] [Indexed: 06/24/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction: Previous studies have established that endogenous inorganic polysulfides have significant biological actions activating the Transient Receptor Potential Ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) receptor. Organic polysulfides exert similar effects, but they are much more stable molecules, therefore these compounds are more suitable as drugs. In this study, we aimed to better understand the mechanism of action of organic polysulfides by identification of their binding site on the TRPA1 receptor. Methods: Polysulfides can readily interact with the thiol side chain of the cysteine residues of the protein. To investigate their role in the TRPA1 activation, we replaced several cysteine residues by alanine via site-directed mutagenesis. We searched for TRPA1 mutant variants with decreased or lost activating effect of the polysulfides, but with other functions remaining intact (such as the effects of non-electrophilic agonists and antagonists). The binding properties of the mutant receptors were analyzed by in silico molecular docking. Functional changes were tested by in vitro methods: calcium sensitive fluorescent flow cytometry, whole-cell patch-clamp and radioactive calcium-45 liquid scintillation counting. Results: The cysteines forming the conventional binding site of electrophilic agonists, namely C621, C641 and C665 also bind the organic polysulfides, with the key role of C621. However, only their combined mutation abolished completely the organic polysulfide-induced activation of the receptor. Discussion: Since previous papers provided evidence that organic polysulfides exert analgesic and anti-inflammatory actions in different in vivo animal models, we anticipate that the development of TRPA1-targeted, organic polysulfide-based drugs will be promoted by this identification of the binding site.

Abstract
Fumonisins are frequent food contaminants. The high exposure to fumonisins can cause harmful effects in humans and animals. Fumonisin B1 (FB1) is the most typical member of this group; however, the occurrence of several other derivatives has been reported. Acylated metabolites of FB1 have also been described as possible food contaminants, and the very limited data available suggest their significantly higher toxicity compared to FB1. Furthermore, the physicochemical and toxicokinetic properties (e.g., albumin binding) of acyl-FB1 derivatives may show large differences compared to the parent mycotoxin. Therefore, we tested the interactions of FB1, N-palmitoyl-FB1 (N-pal-FB1), 5-O-palmitoyl-FB1 (5-O-pal-FB1), and fumonisin B4 (FB4) with human serum albumin as well as the toxic effects of these mycotoxins on zebrafish embryos were examined. Based on our results, the most important observations and conclusions are the following: (1) FB1 and FB4 bind to albumin with low affinity, while palmitoyl-FB1 derivatives form highly stable complexes with the protein. (2) N-pal-FB1 and 5-O-pal-FB1 likely occupy more high-affinity binding sites on albumin. (3) Among the mycotoxins tested, N-pal-FB1 showed the most toxic effects on zebrafish, followed by 5-O-pal-FB1, FB4, and FB1. (4) Our study provides the first in vivo toxicity data regarding N-pal-FB1, 5-O-pal-FB1, and FB4.

Abstract
Luteolin and naringenin are flavonoids found in various foods/beverages and present in certain dietary supplements. After a high intake of these flavonoids, their sulfate and glucuronide conjugates reach micromolar concentrations in the bloodstream. Some pharmacokinetic interactions of luteolin and naringenin have been investigated in previous studies; however, only limited data are available in regard to their metabolites. In this study, we aimed to investigate the interactions of the sulfate and glucuronic acid conjugates of luteolin and naringenin with human serum albumin, cytochrome P450 (CYP2C9, 2C19, and 3A4) enzymes, and organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP1B1 and OATP2B1) transporters. Our main findings are as follows: (1) Sulfate conjugates formed more stable complexes with albumin than the parent flavonoids. (2) Luteolin and naringenin conjugates showed no or only weak inhibitory action on the CYP enzymes examined. (3) Certain conjugates of luteolin and naringenin are potent inhibitors of OATP1B1 and/or OATP2B1 enzymes. (4) Conjugated metabolites of luteolin and naringenin may play an important role in the pharmacokinetic interactions of these flavonoids.

Abstract
Alternariol (AOH) is an emerging mycotoxin produced by Alternaria strains. The acute toxicity of the mycotoxin is low; however, chronic exposure to AOH may result in the development of endocrine disruptor and/or carcinogenic effects. The toxicokinetic properties of AOH have barely been characterized. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to investigate its interactions with CYP (1A2, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, and 3A4) enzymes and OATP (1A2, 1B1, 1B3, and 2B1) transporters employing in vitro enzyme assays and OATP overexpressing cells, respectively. Our results demonstrated that AOH is a strong inhibitor of CYP1A2 (IC50 = 0.15 μM) and CYP2C9 (IC50 = 7.4 μM). Based on the AOH depletion assays in the presence of CYP enzymes, CYP1A2 is mainly involved, while CYP2C19 is moderately involved in the CYP-catalyzed biotransformation of the mycotoxin. AOH proved to be a strong inhibitor of each OATP transporter examined (IC50 = 1.9 to 5.4 μM). In addition, both direct and indirect assays suggest the involvement of OATP1B1 in the cellular uptake of the mycotoxin. These findings promote the deeper understanding of certain toxicokinetic interactions of AOH.

[PMID: 36430830 PMCID: PMC9698663 DOI: 10.3390/ijms232214353] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2022] [Revised: 11/17/2022] [Accepted: 11/17/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Alternaria mycotoxins, including alternariol (AOH), alternariol-9-monomethylether (AME), and their masked/modified derivatives (e.g., sulfates or glycosides), are common food contaminants. Their acute toxicity is relatively low, while chronic exposure can lead to the development of adverse health effects. Masked/modified metabolites can probably release the more toxic parent mycotoxin due to their enzymatic hydrolysis in the intestines. Previously, we demonstrated the complex formation of AOH with serum albumins and cyclodextrins; these interactions were successfully applied for the extraction of AOH from aqueous matrices (including beverages). Therefore, in this study, the interactions of AME, alternariol-3-sulfate (AS), and alternariol-9-monomethylether-3-sulfate (AMS) were investigated with albumins (human, bovine, porcine, and rat) and with cyclodextrins (sulfobutylether-β-cyclodextrin, sugammadex, and cyclodextrin bead polymers). Our major results/conclusions are the following: (1) The stability of mycotoxin-albumin complexes showed only minor species dependent variations. (2) AS and AMS formed highly stable complexes with albumins in a wide pH range, while AME-albumin interactions preferred alkaline conditions. (3) AME formed more stable complexes with the cyclodextrins examined than AS and AMS. (4) Beta-cyclodextrin bead polymer proved to be highly suitable for the extraction of AME, AS, and AMS from aqueous solution. (5) Albumins and cyclodextrins are promising binders of the mycotoxins tested.

Abstract
Resveratrol (RES) is a widely-known natural polyphenol which is also contained by several dietary supplements. Large doses of RES can result in high micromolar levels of its sulfate and glucuronide conjugates in the circulation, due to the high presystemic metabolism of the parent polyphenol. Pharmacokinetic interactions of RES have been extensively studied, while only limited data are available regarding its metabolites. Therefore, in the current study, we examined the interactions of resveratrol-3-sulfate (R3S), resveratrol-3-glucuronide, and dihydroresveratrol (DHR; a metabolite produced by the colon microbiota) with human serum albumin (HSA), cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes, and organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATP) employing in vitro models. Our results demonstrated that R3S and R3G may play a major role in the RES-induced pharmacokinetic interactions: (1) R3S can strongly displace the site I marker warfarin from HSA; (2) R3G showed similarly strong inhibitory action on CYP3A4 to RES; (3) R3S proved to be similarly strong (OATP1B1/3) or even stronger (OATP1A2 and OATP2B1) inhibitor of OATPs tested than RES, while R3G and RES showed comparable inhibitory actions on OATP2B1.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) is a transmembrane protein channeling the influx of calcium ions. As a polymodal nocisensor, TRPA1 can be activated by thermal, mechanical stimuli and a wide range of chemically damaging molecules including small volatile environmental toxicants and endogenous algogenic lipids. After activation by such compounds, the ion channel opens up, its central pore widens allowing calcium influx into the cytosol inducing signal transduction pathways. Afterwards, the calcium influx desensitizes irritant evoked responses and results in an inactive state of the ion channel. Recent experimental determination of structures of apo and holo forms of TRPA1 opened the way towards the design of new agonists, which can activate the ion channel. The present study is aimed at the elucidation of binding dynamics of agonists using experimental structures of TRPA1-agonist complexes at the atomic level applying molecular docking and dynamics methods accounting for covalent and non-covalent interactions. Following a test of docking methods focused on the final, holo structures, prerequisite binding modes were detected involving the apo forms. It was shown how reversible interactions with prerequisite binding sites contribute to structural changes of TRPA1 leading to covalent bonding of agonists. The proposed dynamics of action allowed a mechanism-based forecast of new, druggable binding sites of potent agonists.

Abstract
The trillions of microbes that make up the gut microbiome are an important contributor to health and disease. With respect to xenobiotics, particularly orally administered compounds, the gut microbiome interacts directly with drugs to break them down into metabolic products. In addition, microbial products such as bile acids interact with nuclear receptors on host drug-metabolizing enzyme machinery, thus indirectly influencing drug disposition and pharmacokinetics. Gut microbes also influence drugs that undergo enterohepatic recycling by reversing host enzyme metabolic processes and increasing exposure to toxic metabolites as exemplified by the chemotherapy agent irinotecan and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Recent data with immune checkpoint inhibitors demonstrate the impact of the gut microbiome on drug pharmacodynamics. We summarize the clinical importance of gut microbe interaction with digoxin, irinotecan, immune checkpoint inhibitors, levodopa, and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Understanding the complex interactions of the gut microbiome with xenobiotics is challenging; and highly sensitive methods such as untargeted metabolomics with molecular networking along with other in silico methods and animal and human in vivo studies will uncover mechanisms and pathways. Incorporating the contribution of the gut microbiome to drug disposition, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics is vital in this era of precision medicine.

Eur J Pharm Sci 2021; 162:105826. [PMID: 33813039 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejps.2021.105826] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2021] [Revised: 03/04/2021] [Accepted: 03/27/2021] [Indexed: 01/16/2023]
Abstract
Resiquimod (R-848) is an immune response modifier activating toll-like receptor 7 and 8. Its potential to cause pharmacokinetic interactions with concurrently administered drugs is unknown. To study the time course of the effect of resiquimod in LS180 cells as a model for intestinal tissue, luciferase-based reporter gene assays and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction were used to investigate whether resiquimod affects the activities of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-ĸB), pregnane x receptor (PXR) or the transcription of selected central genes for drug disposition (cytochrome P-450 isozyme 3A4 (CYP3A4), CYP1A1, UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 (UGT1A1), ATP-binding cassette transporters ABCC2, ABCB1). Its impact on the activities of organic anion transporting polypeptides 1 or 3 (OATP1B1/3), breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP), P-glycoprotein (P-gp) or CYP3A4 was evaluated using fluorescence- or luminescence-based activity assays. Resiquimod irrelevantly increased NF-ĸB activity after 2 h (1 µM: 1.07-fold, P = 0.0188; 10 µM: 1.09-fold, P = 0.0142), and diminished it after 24 h (1 µM: 0.64-fold, P < 0.0001; 10 µM: 0.68-fold, P < 0.0001) and 30 h (10 µM: 0.68-fold, P = 0.0003). Concurrently, PXR activity after 24 h was marginally increased by 10 µM (1.05-fold, P = 0.0019). Resiquimod did not alter mRNA expression levels, activities of uptake or efflux transporters, or CYP3A4 activity. Given the marginal effects on NF-ĸB, PXR, expression levels of selected PXR target genes, and activities of important drug transporters and CYP3A4 in vitro, resiquimod is not expected to cause major pharmacokinetic drug-drug interactions in vivo.

Abstract
Silymarin is a mixture of flavonolignans isolated from the fruit of milk thistle (Silybum marianum (L.) Gaertner). Milk thistle extract is the active ingredient of several medications and dietary supplements to treat liver injury/diseases. After the oral administration, flavonolignans are extensively biotransformed, resulting in the formation of sulfate and/or glucuronide metabolites. Previous studies demonstrated that silymarin components form stable complexes with serum albumin and can inhibit certain cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes. Nevertheless, in most of these investigations, silybin was tested; while no or only limited information is available regarding other silymarin components and metabolites. In this study, the interactions of five silymarin components (silybin A, silybin B, isosilybin A, silychristin, and 2,3-dehydrosilychristin) and their sulfate metabolites were examined with human serum albumin and CYP (2C9, 2C19, 2D6, and 3A4) enzymes. Our results demonstrate that each compound tested forms stable complexes with albumin, and certain silymarin components/metabolites can inhibit CYP enzymes. Most of the sulfate conjugates were less potent inhibitors of CYP enzymes, but 2,3-dehydrosilychristin-19-O-sulfate showed the strongest inhibitory effect on CYP3A4. Based on these observations, the simultaneous administration of high dose silymarin with medications should be carefully considered, because milk thistle flavonolignans and/or their sulfate metabolites may interfere with drug therapy.

Abstract
Polyphenolic compounds (including flavonoids, chalcones, phenolic acids, and furanocoumarins) represent a common part of our diet, but are also the active ingredients of several dietary supplements and/or medications. These compounds undergo extensive metabolism by human biotransformation enzymes and the microbial flora of the colon. CYP2D6 enzyme metabolizes approximately 25% of the drugs, some of which has narrow therapeutic window. Therefore, its inhibition can lead to the development of pharmacokinetic interactions and the disruption of drug therapy. In this study, the inhibitory effects of 17 plant-derived compounds and 19 colonic flavonoid metabolites on CYP2D6 were examined, employing two assays with different test substrates. The O-demethylation of dextromethorphan was tested employing CypExpress 2D6 kit coupled to HPLC analysis; while the O-demethylation of another CYP2D6 specific substrate (AMMC) was investigated in a plate reader assay with BioVision Fluorometric CYP2D6 kit. Interestingly, some compounds (e.g., bergamottin) inhibited both dextromethorphan and AMMC demethylation; however, certain substances proved to be inhibitors only in one of the assays applied. Our results demonstrate that some polyphenols and colonic metabolites are inhibitors of CYP2D6-catalyzed reactions. Nevertheless, the inhibitory effects showed strong substrate dependence.

Abstract
Chrysin is an abundant flavonoid in nature, and it is also contained by several dietary supplements. Chrysin is highly biotransformed in the body, during which conjugated metabolites chrysin-7-sulfate and chrysin-7-glucuronide are formed. These conjugates appear at considerably higher concentrations in the circulation than the parent compound. Based on previous studies, chrysin can interact with biotransformation enzymes and transporters; however, the interactions of its metabolites have been barely examined. In this in vitro study, the effects of chrysin, chrysin-7-sulfate, and chrysin-7-glucuronide on cytochrome P450 enzymes (2C9, 2C19, 3A4, and 2D6) as well as on organic anion-transporting polypeptides (OATPs; 1A2, 1B1, 1B3, and 2B1) and ATP binding cassette [P-glycoprotein, multidrug resistance-associated protein 2, and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP)] transporters were investigated. Our observations revealed that chrysin conjugates are strong inhibitors of certain biotransformation enzymes (e.g., CYP2C9) and transporters (e.g., OATP1B1, OATP1B3, OATP2B1, and BCRP) examined. Therefore, the simultaneous administration of chrysin-containing dietary supplements with medications needs to be carefully considered due to the possible development of pharmacokinetic interactions. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: Chrysin-7-sulfate and chrysin-7-glucuronide are the major metabolites of flavonoid chrysin. In this study, we examined the effects of chrysin and its conjugates on cytochrome P450 enzymes and on organic anion-transporting polypeptides and ATP binding cassette transporters (P-glycoprotein, breast cancer resistance protein, and multidrug resistance-associated protein 2). Our results demonstrate that chrysin and/or its conjugates can significantly inhibit some of these proteins. Since chrysin is also contained by dietary supplements, high intake of chrysin may interrupt the transport and/or the biotransformation of drugs.

The Interaction of Temozolomide with Blood Components Suggests the Potential Use of Human Serum Albumin as a Biomimetic Carrier for the Drug. Biomolecules 2020; 10:E1015.

Abstract
The interaction of temozolomide (TMZ) (the main chemotherapeutic agent for brain tumors) with blood components has not been studied at the molecular level to date, even though such information is essential in the design of dosage forms for optimal therapy. This work explores the binding of TMZ to human serum albumin (HSA) and alpha-1-acid glycoprotein (AGP), as well as to blood cell-mimicking membrane systems. Absorption and fluorescence experiments with model membranes indicate that TMZ does not penetrate into the lipid bilayer, but binds to the membrane surface with very low affinity. Fluorescence experiments performed with the plasma proteins suggest that in human plasma, most of the bound TMZ is attached to HSA rather than to AGP. This interaction is moderate and likely mediated by hydrogen-bonding and hydrophobic forces, which increase the hydrolytic stability of the drug. These experiments are supported by docking and molecular dynamics simulations, which reveal that TMZ is mainly inserted in the subdomain IIA of HSA, establishing π-stacking interactions with the tryptophan residue. Considering the overexpression of albumin receptors in tumor cells, our results propose that part of the administered TMZ may reach its target bound to plasma albumin and suggest that HSA-based nanocarriers are suitable candidates for designing biomimetic delivery systems that selectively transport TMZ to tumor cells.
