Transcriptomic changes associated to the exposure of intestinal cells to the mycotoxin Versicolorin A

ABSTRACT: Versicolorin A (VerA), a precursor of the potent carcinogen aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), is an emerging mycotoxin. Recent studies have described the mutagenic and genotoxic ability of VerA, but the mechanisms of its toxicity remain to be discovered. In the present study, we investigated the early (6 h) transcriptomic changes induced by VerA in differentiated intestinal cells at non-cytotoxic conditions (1 and 3 µM) and compared its effects to those of AFB1 at 1µM. Our results showed that VerA, but not AFB1, induced significant changes in global gene expression profiles. Both toxins induced gene expression changes related to known elements of their toxicity, such as mutagenicity, genotoxicity, oxidative stress and apoptosis. However, we also observed novel features of VerA toxicity, including the ability to induce mitochondrial dysfunction, which leads to the induction of a type-1 interferon response mediated by cGAS-STING. VerA also induced changes in the expression of genes involved in the regulation of cell shape and adhesion, transcription/translation as well as genes associated with tumor biology. Our findings provide new evidence of VerA toxicity and highlight the need to further evaluate its hazards and the risk associated with its presence in food.

Comparative toxicity of Aflatoxin B1, Patulin and their biosynthetic precursors: A human intestinal microarray analysis

Project description:Patulin (PAT) and Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) are frequent mycotoxins contaminating food and feed which demonstrate multiple toxic effects. These mycotoxins represent final product in cascades of enzymatic reactions. In order to limit the risk generated by food contamination, approaches aiming to block the biosynthesis pathway of these mycotoxins can be considered, provided that their precursors are devoid of toxicity. The aim of this study was to compare the toxicity of two precursor compounds (Versicolorin A (VERA), sterigmatocystin (STG)) to AFB1 and the precursor compound (ascladiol) to PAT. Human intestinal Caco-2 cells were exposed to 1 µM AFB1, VERA, STG or 3 µM PAT or ascladiol for 24 hours and transcription analysis was performed using an “Agilent Sureprint 63 Human GE 8x60k microarray.

Genome-Scale CRISPR Knockout Screening Identifies BACH1 as a Key Regulator of Aflatoxin B1-Induced Oxidative Damage [CRISPR screening]

Project description:Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is amongst the mycotoxins commonly affecting human and animal health, raising global food safety and control concerns. The mechanisms underlying AFB1 toxicity are poorly understood. Moreover, antidotes against AFB1 are lacking. Genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 knockout screening in porcine kidney cells identified the transcription factor BTB and CNC homolog 1 (BACH1) as a gene required for AFB1 toxicity. The inhibition of BACH1 expression in porcine kidney cells and human hepatoma cells resulted in increased resistance to AFB1. BACH1 depletion attenuates AFB1-induced oxidative damage via the upregulation of antioxidant genes.

Transcriptomic analyses of co-treatment of AFB1 and curcumin in chicken liver

Project description:Purpose:In order to assess the toxicity of AFB1 in chicken liver and the mechanism of curcumin alleviating AFB1-induced liver toxicity in chicken, we established a co-administered model to investigate LncRNA and mRNA profiles of chicken liver. Methods: RNA extracted by Total RNA Extractor (Trizol) was utilized to construct the final library. Libraries were pooled and sequenced on a 150-bp paired-end Illumina HiSeq™ 2000 run. The sequencing data obtained from Illumina Hiseq™ was filtered to get clean reads using Trimmomatic. The reads themselves and their matching reads which length was less than 35nt were removed. Clean reads were aligned to the reference sequence (Gallus_gallus-5.0, NCBI) using HISAT2. Results: Sampling directly from the liver yielded sufficient quantities of RNA to assess transcripts from each chicken and mapped to 24,883 Gallus gallus genes. Conclusions: We used the method of RNA-seq to find the target genes and related signaling pathways involved in the co-administered (AFB1 and curcumin) and their underlying mechanisms.

Persistent microRNA-gene networks in primary human hepatocytes upon withdrawal of aflatoxin B1 exposure are related to hepatocellular carcinoma [mRNA]

Project description:Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), one of the most common cancer types, is a multi-factorial disease. One strongly associated factor is oral exposure to the food-contaminant aflatoxin B1 (AFB1). A clear link between AFB1-induced p53 mutations and HCC exists, however less is known about the association with microRNA expression changes. In particular, irreversible adverse effects that may occur at the transcriptomic level following repetitive exposure have not been investigated yet. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to dissect persistent changes in expression of microRNA-directed regulatory networks from transient transcriptome modifications contributing to AFB1-induced HCC. Primary human hepatocytes were exposed to 1 µM of AFB1 for 5 days followed by a 3 day wash-out period. Whole genome transcriptomic analysis and microRNA expressions were analyzed applying microarray technologies. By evaluating genes which remain significantly expressed into the same direction after the 3-day wash-out period persistent AFB1-induced and HCC-related biological processes could be identified. Persistent genes could be linked with "Drug and energy metabolism" and "Pre-, post- and transcriptional regulation of gene expression" related processes. Especially, two HCC-related microRNAs, hsa-miR-34b-5p and hsa-miR-222-3p, which are persistently expressed, seem to regulate genes involved in these very characteristic AFB1-induced processes referring to cancer-associated metabolism changes and regulation of gene expression. Moreover, hsa-miR-34a-5p, hsa-miR-96-5p and hsa-miR-30a-3p which become differentially expressed only upon terminating AFB1 exposure, seem to regulate persistently expressed genes. The findings within this study therefore contribute to a better understanding of the AFB1-induced onset of HCC by causing persistent effects on microRNA and gene expression.

Expression data from livers of rats treated with control, D3T, OLT, or TBD

Project description:The activities of the dithiolethione analogs, D3T, OLT, and TBD are pharmacologically well-understood. These compounds act as chemopreventive agents whose ability is to block or diminish early stages of carcinogenesis. In addition, the three compounds are classified as monofunctional Phase II enzyme inducers and activate the same pathway, namely the Keap1-Nrf2 signal pathway. The three dithiolethiones were showed to ameliorate the AFB1-induced toxicity through increasing phase II enzymes including glutathione S-transferase (GST). The parent D3T was observed to be the most potent chemoprotective agent. Oltipraz, a clinically approved drug, has been shown to exhibit less efficacy than its analogs for inhibition of aflatoxin-induced hepatic foci.TBD was suggested to be better than OLT as a chemopreventive agent because of its reduced toxicity profile. Thus based on gene expressions, our goal is to study the closely related structure activities that lie within the three compounds and the activity of OLT versus TBD at the 5 position of their dithiole rings and to determine whether the activity of TBD is closely related to OLT or its parent D3T.

Nucleotide Excision Repair of Aflatoxin-Induced DNA Damage within the 3D Human Genome Organization

Project description:Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), a potent carcinogenic mycotoxin, is known to contribute to liver cancer development. Within the cell, bioactivated AFB1 intercalates into the DNA double helix, forming bulky DNA adducts that lead to mutagenesis if left unrepaired. Here, we adapted the tXR-seq method to map the nucleotide excision repair of AFB1-induced DNA lesions at genome-wide level. Our research uncovered that transcription-coupled repair plays a major role in repairing the AFB1-induced DNA lesions. We identified a distinctive length distribution pattern for the excision products released during repair, suggesting a unique dual incision mechanism for AFB1-induced DNA lesions. Notably, we revealed that repair activity is more pronounced on chromosomes closer to the nuclear center and A compartments undergo faster repair compared with B compartments. Additionally, we observed higher repair activity within regions encompassing TAD boundaries and loop anchors. This study provides insights into the interplay between repair, transcription, and 3D genome organization, shedding light on the mechanisms behind AFB1-associated liver cancer development.
