Project description:(Abstract) Toxicogenomics has great potential for enhancing our understanding of environmental chemical toxicity, hopefully leading to better-informed human health risk assessments. This study employed toxicogenomic technology to reveal species differences in response to two prototypical aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) agonists, 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) and the polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congener PCB 126. Dose responses of primary cultures of rat and human hepatocytes were determined using species-specific microarrays sharing over 4,000 gene orthologs. Forty-seven human and 79 rat genes satisfied dose response criteria for both chemicals and were subjected to further analysis including the calculation of EC50 and the relative potency (REP) of PCB 126 for each gene. Only 5 responsive orthologous genes were shared between the two species, yet the geometric mean of the REPs for all rat and human modeled responsive genes were 0.06 (95% Confidence Interval (CI); 0.03-0.1) and 0.002 (95% CI; 0.001-0.005), respectively, suggesting broad species differences in the initial events that follow AHR activation but precede toxicity. This indicates that there are species differences in both the specific genes that responded and the agonist potency and relative potency for those genes. This observed insensitivity of human cells to PCB 126 is consistent with more traditional measurements of AHR activation (i.e., CYP1A1 enzyme activity) and suggests that the species difference in PCB 126 sensitivity is likely due to certain aspects of AHR function. That a species divergence also exists in this expanded AHR-regulated gene repertoire is a novel finding and should help when extrapolating animal data to humans.

Experiment Overall Design: Primary hepatocyte cultures, separated into 2 pools of 3 female Sprague Dawley rats each, were treated with vehicle (0.5% DMSO), TCDD (-14 to -6.5 log10 M) , or PCB 126 (-12 to -5 log10 M) for 48h. Total RNA was extracted and screened with RG-U34A microarrays for dose response.

Project description:Although the tumor promoting effects of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD), coplanar polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and related compounds in liver tissue are primarily attributed to activation of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), the underlying molecular mechanisms are still unclear. Liver progenitor (oval) cells have been suggested to constitute a potential target for hepatocarcinogenic chemicals. To better understand AhR-driven pathways we analyzed the transcriptional program in response to coplanar PCB 126 in rat liver progenitor WB-F344 cells using high density microarrays. After 6h treatment, we identified 145 significantly deregulated genes considered to be direct AhR-dependent target genes. The number of differentially regulated genes increased to 658 and 968 genes after 24h and 72h, respectively. Gene ontology analysis revealed that these genes were primarily involved in drug and lipid metabolism, cell cycle and growth control, cancer developmental processes, cell-cell communication and adhesion. Interestingly, the Wnt and TGF-beta signaling pathways, both being involved in developmental and tumorigenic processes, belonged to the most affected pathways. AhR and ARNT-dependent regulation of selected target genes of interest was then confirmed using TCDD as a model AhR agonist, together with pharmacological inhibition of the AhR and by RNA-interference techniques. We demonstrated AhR-dependent regulation of emerging and novel AhR target genes, such as Fst, Areg, Hbegf, Ctgf, Btg2, and Foxq1. Among them, the transcription factor Foxq1, recently suggested to contribute to tumor promotion and/or progression, was found to be regulated at both mRNA and protein levels by AhR/ARNT activation. 18 Total samples were analyzed (3 independent repeats for each treatment and time point). We generated the following pairwise comparisons: Control vs. PCB 126 at 6 h; Control vs. PCB 126 at 24 h; Control vs. PCB 126 at 72 h;

Project description:Embryos from 8 populations of killifish, four with evolved tolerances, were exposed to PCB-126. Approximately 5 replicate embryos per treatment/control were sequenced. Desensitization of aryl hydrocarbon receptor signaling to PCB-126 is found in all four populations with evolved pollution tolerance, and represents the strongest transcriptional difference between tolerant and sensitive populations.

Project description:We provide here the alterations in gene expression profiles of HepaRG cells, a validated model for cellular steatosis, exposed to three concentration of the polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) 126, one of the most potent chemical inducing NAFLD. Additionnally, three concentration of the pesticide active ingredient glyphosate were tested. This ultimately suggested sensitive biomarkers of exposure. A gene ontology analysis showed hallmarks of an activation of the AhR receptor by dioxin-like compounds. Our study provides grounds for the development of molecular signatures of fatty liver diseases to rapidly assess toxic effects of chemicals in the HepaRG cell line.
