Use of molecular approaches to aide in the assessment of risk involved in chemical exposure is a growing field in toxicology. In this study, we examined the impact of two environmental chemicals used in and around homes, the insect repellent DEET (N,N-diethyl-m-toluamide) and the phenylpyrazole insecticide fipronil (fluocyanobenpyrazole) on transcript levels of enzymes potentially involved in xenobiotic metabolism and on long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs). Primary human hepatocytes were treated with these two chemicals both individually and in combination. Using RNA-Seq, we found that 10 major enzyme categories involved in phase 1 and phase 2 xenobiotic metabolism were significantly (α = 0.05) up- and down-regulated (i.e., 100 μM DEET–19 transcripts, 89% up and 11% down; 10 μM fipronil–52 transcripts, 53% up and 47% down; and 100 μM DEET +10 μM fipronil–69 transcripts, 43% up and 57% down). The altered genes were then mapped to the human genome and their proximity (within 1,000,000 bp) to lncRNAs examined. Unique proximities were discovered between altered lncRNA and altered P450s (CYP) and other enzymes (DEET, 2 CYP; Fipronil, 6 CYP and 15 other; and DEET + fipronil, 7 CYP and 21 other). Many of the altered P450 transcripts were in multiple clusters in the genome with proximal altered lncRNAs, suggesting a regulator function for the lncRNA. At the gene level there was high percent identity for lncRNAs near P450 clusters, but this relationship was not found at the transcript level. The role of these altered lncRNAs associated with xenobiotic induction, human diseases and chemical mixtures is discussed.}, journal={PESTICIDE BIOCHEMISTRY AND PHYSIOLOGY}, author={Lawrie, Roger D. and Mitchell, Robert D., III and Dhammi, Anirudh and Wallace, Andrew and Hodgson, Ernest and Roe, R.

We chose to examine the effects of two common environmental chemicals, the insect repellent N,N-diethyl-m-toluamide (DEET) and the insecticide fluocyanobenpyrazole (fipronil), on transcript levels of long non-protein coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in primary human hepatocytes using a global RNA-Seq approach. While lncRNAs are believed to play a critical role in numerous important biological processes, many still remain uncharacterized, and their functions and modes of action remain largely unclear, especially in relation to environmental chemicals. RNA-Seq showed that 100 µM DEET significantly increased transcript levels for 2 lncRNAs and lowered transcript levels for 18 lncRNAs, while fipronil at 10 µM increased transcript levels for 76 lncRNAs and decreased levels for 193 lncRNAs. A mixture of 100 µM DEET and 10 µM fipronil increased transcript levels for 75 lncRNAs and lowered transcript levels for 258 lncRNAs. This indicates a more-than-additive effect on lncRNA transcript expression when the two chemicals were presented in combination versus each chemical alone. Differentially expressed lncRNA genes were mapped to chromosomes, analyzed by proximity to neighboring protein-coding genes, and functionally characterized via gene ontology and molecular mapping algorithms. While further testing is required to assess the organismal impact of changes in transcript levels, this initial analysis links several of the dysregulated lncRNAs to processes and pathways critical to proper cellular function, such as the innate and adaptive immune response and the p53 signaling pathway.}, number={10}, journal={INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF MOLECULAR SCIENCES}, author={Mitchell, Robert D., III and Wallace, Andrew D. and Hodgson, Ernest and Roe, R.

To determine the variability in chlorpyrifos bioactivation, CPO production by human liver microsomes from 17 individual donors was compared relative to phenotype and genotype. CPO production varied over 14-fold between individuals in incubations utilizing 20 μM chlorpyrifos as substrate, while CPO production varied 57-fold in incubations with 100 μM chlorpyrifos. For all but two samples, the formation of the less toxic metabolite, 3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol (TCP), was greater than CPO production. TCP production varied 9-fold in incubations utilizing 20 μM chlorpyrifos as substrate and 19-fold using 100 μM chlorpyrifos. Chlorpyrifos metabolism by individual human liver microsomes was significantly correlated with CYP2B6, CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 related activity. CPO formation was best correlated with CYP2B6 related activity at low (20 μM) chlorpyrifos concentrations while CYP3A4 related activity was best correlated with CPO formation at high concentrations (100 μM) of chlorpyrifos. TCP production was best correlated with CYP3A4 activity at all substrate concentrations of chlorpyrifos. The production of both CPO and TCP was significantly lower at a concentration of 20 μM chlorpyrifos as compared to 100 μM chlorpyrifos.

Donor ages ranged from 10 weeks gestation to 17 years of age with a median age of 1.9 months. CYP2B6 levels were measured by semi-quantitative western blotting. Overall, CYP2B6 expression was detected in 75% of samples. However, the percentage of samples with detectable CYP2B6 protein increased with age from 64% in fetal samples to 95% in samples from donors >10 years of age. There was a significant, but only 2-fold increase in median CYP2B6 expression after the neonatal period (birth to 30 days postnatal) although protein levels varied over 25-fold in both age groups. The median CYP2B6 level in samples over 30 postnatal days to 17 years of age (1.3 pmol/mg microsomal protein) was lower than previously reported adult levels (2.2–22 pmol/mg microsomal protein), however, this likely relates to the median age of these samples, i.e., 10.3 months. CYP2B6 expression did not vary significantly by gender. Furthermore, CYP2B6 levels did not correlate with CYP3A4, CYP3A5.1 or CYP3A7 activity, consistent with different mechanisms controlling the ontogeny and constitutive expression of these enzymes and the lack of significant induction in the pediatric samples.}, number={2}, journal={BIOCHEMICAL PHARMACOLOGY}, author={Croom, Edward L. and Stevens, Jeffrey C. and Hines, Ronald N. and Wallace, Andrew D. and Hodgson, Ernest}, year={2009}, month={Jul}, pages={184–190} } @article{hodgson_rose_2008, title={Metabolic interactions of agrochemicals in humans}, volume={64}, ISSN={["1526-4998"]}, DOI={10.1002/ps.1563}, abstractNote={Abstract}, number={6}, journal={PEST MANAGEMENT SCIENCE}, author={Hodgson, Ernest and Rose, Randy L.}, year={2008}, month={Jun}, pages={617–621} } @article{hodgson_rose_2007, title={Human metabolic interactions of environmental chemicals}, volume={21}, ISSN={["1099-0461"]}, DOI={10.1002/jbt.20175}, abstractNote={Abstract}, number={4}, journal={JOURNAL OF BIOCHEMICAL AND MOLECULAR TOXICOLOGY}, author={Hodgson, Ernest and Rose, Randy L.}, year={2007}, pages={182–186} } @article{joo_choi_rose_hodgson_2007, title={Inhibition of fipronil and nonane metabolism in human liver microsomes and human cytochrome P450 isoforms by chlorpyrifos}, volume={21}, ISSN={["1095-6670"]}, DOI={10.1002/jbt.20161}, abstractNote={Abstract}, number={2}, journal={JOURNAL OF BIOCHEMICAL AND MOLECULAR TOXICOLOGY}, author={Joo, Hyun and Choi, Kyoungju and Rose, Randy L. and Hodgson, Ernest}, year={2007}, pages={76–80} } @misc{hodgson_rose_2007, title={The importance of cytochrome P4502B6 in the human metabolism of environmental chemicals}, volume={113}, ISSN={["0163-7258"]}, DOI={10.1016/j.pharmthera.2006.10.002}, abstractNote={Cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2B6 (CYP2B6) is a human CYP isoform found in variable amounts in the liver and other organs.

Exposure of human hepatocytes to doses of fipronil (5-amino-1-[2,6-dichloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-4-[(trifluoromethyl) sulfinyl]-1H-pyrazole-3-carbonitrile) ranging from 0.1 to 25 μM resulted in a dose dependent increase in CYP1A1 mRNA expression (3.5 to ∼55-fold) as measured by the branched DNA assay. In a similar manner, CYP3A4 mRNA expression was also induced (10–30-fold), although at the higher doses induction returned to near control levels. CYP2B6 and 3A5 were also induced by fipronil, although at lower levels (2–3-fold). Confirmation of bDNA results were sought through western blotting and/or enzyme activity assays. Western blots using CYP3A4 antibody demonstrated a dose responsive increase from 0.5 to 1 μM followed by decreasing responses at higher concentrations. Similar increases and decreases were observed in CYP3A4-specific activity levels as measured using 6β-hydroxytestosterone formation following incubation with testosterone. Likewise, activity levels for a CYP1A1-specific substrate, luciferin CEE, demonstrated that CYP1A1 enzyme activities were maximally induced by 1 μM fipronil followed by dramatically declining activity measurements at 10 and 25 μM. Cytotoxic effects of fipronil and fipronil sulfone were examined using the adenylate kinase and the trypan blue exclusion assays in HepG2 cells and human hepatocytes. The results indicate both that HepG2 cells and primary human hepatocytes are sensitive to the cytotoxic effects of fipronil. The maximum induction of adenylate kinase was ca. 3-fold greater than the respective controls in HepG2 and 6–10-fold in the case of primary hepatocytes. A significant time- and dose-dependent induction of adenylate kinase activity in HepG2 cells was noted from 0.1 to 12.5 μM fipronil followed by decreasing activities at 25 and 50 μM. For fipronil sulfone, cytotoxic effects increased throughout the dose range. The trypan blue assay indicated that cytotoxic effects contributing to an increase of greater than 10% of control values was indicated at doses above 12.5 μM. However, fipronil sulfone induced cytotoxic effects at lower doses. The possibility that cytotoxic effects were due to apoptosis was indicated by significant time- and dose-dependent induction of caspase-3/7 activity in both HepG2 cells and human hepatocytes.

This study examines effects of deployment-related and other chemicals on E2 metabolism by human liver microsomes (HLM) and individual P450 isoforms. Kinetic studies using HLM, CYP3A4, and CYP1A2 showed similar affinities (Km) for E2 with respect to 2-OHE2 production.

Phenotyped HLM use showed that individuals with high levels of CYP1A2 and CYP3A4 have the greatest potential to metabolize E2. Preincubation of HLM with a variety of chemicals, including those used in military deployments, resulted in varying levels of inhibition of E2 metabolism. The greatest inhibition was observed with organophosphorus compounds, including chlorpyrifos and fonofos, with up to 80% inhibition for 2-OHE2 production. Carbaryl, a carbamate pesticide, and naphthalene, a jet fuel component, inhibited ca. 40% of E2 metabolism.

Its effect as a pesticide is due to its ability to inhibit acetylcholinesterase activity. Though carbofuran has a long history of use, there is little information available with respect to its metabolic fate and disposition in mammals. The present study was designed to investigate the comparative in vitro metabolism of carbofuran from human, rat, and mouse liver microsomes (HLM, RLM, MLM, respectively), and characterize the specific enzymes involved in such metabolism, with particular reference to human metabolism. Carbofuran is metabolized by cytochrome P450 (CYP) leading to the production of one major ring oxidation metabolite, 3-hydroxycarbofuran, and two minor metabolites. The affinity of carbofuran for CYP enzymes involved in the oxidation to 3-hydroxycarbofuran is significantly less in HLM (Km=1.950 mM) than in RLM (Km=0.210 mM), or MLM (Km=0.550 mM). Intrinsic clearance rate calculations indicate that HLM are 14-fold less efficient in the metabolism of carbofuran to 3-hydroxycarbofuran than RLM or MLM. A screen of 15 major human CYP isoforms for metabolic ability with respect to carbofuran metabolism demonstrated that CYP3A4 is the major isoform responsible for carbofuran oxidation in humans. CYP1A2 and 2C19 are much less active while other human CYP isoforms have minimal or no activity toward carbofuran. In contrast with the human isoforms, members of the CYP2C family in rats are likely to have a primary role in carbofuran metabolism. Normalization of HLM data with the average levels of each CYP in native HLM, indicates that carbofuran metabolism is primarily mediated by CYP3A4 (percent total normalized rate (% TNR)=77.5), although CYP1A2 and 2C19 play ancillary roles (% TNR=9.0 and 6.0, respectively). This is substantiated by the fact that ketoconazole, a specific inhibitor of CYP3A4, is an excellent inhibitor of 3-hydroxycarbofuran formation in HLM (IC50: 0.31 microM). Chlorpyrifos, an irreversible non-competitive inhibitor of CYP3A4, inhibits the formation of 3-hydroxycarbofuran in HLM (IC50: 39 microM). The use of phenotyped HLM demonstrated that individuals with high levels of CYP3A4 have the greatest potential to metabolize carbofuran to its major metabolite. The variation in carbofuran metabolism among 17 single-donor HLM samples is over 5-fold and the best correlation between CYP isoform activity and carbofuran metabolism was observed with CYP3A4 (r2=0.96). The interaction of carbofuran and the endogenous CYP3A4 substrates, testosterone and estradiol, were also investigated. Testosterone metabolism was activated by carbofuran in HLM and CYP3A4, however, less activation was observed for carbofuran metabolism by testosterone in HLM and CYP3A4.

Although fipronil is presently widely used as an insecticide and acaricide, little information is available with respect to its metabolic fate and disposition in mammals. This study was designed to investigate the in vitro human metabolism of fipronil and to examine possible metabolic interactions that fipronil may have with other substrates. Fipronil was incubated with human liver microsomes (HLM) and several recombinant cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoforms obtained from BD Biosciences. HPLC was used for metabolite identification and quantification. Fipronil sulfone was the predominant metabolite via CYP oxidation. The Km and Vmax values for human liver microsomes are 27.2 μM and 0.11 nmol/mg protein min, respectively; for rat liver microsomes (RLM) the Km and Vmax are 19.9 μM and 0.39 nmol/mg protein min, respectively. CYP3A4 is the major isoform responsible for fipronil oxidation in humans while CYP2C19 is considerably less active. Other human CYP isoforms have minimal or no activity toward fipronil. Co-expression of cytochrome b5 (b5) is essential for CYP3A4 to manifest high activity toward fipronil. Ketoconazole, a specific inhibitor of CYP3A4, inhibits 78% of the HLM activity toward fipronil at a concentration of 2 μM. Oxidative activity toward fipronil in 19 single-donor HLMs correlated well with their ability to oxidize testosterone. The interactions of fipronil and other CYP3A4 substrates, such as testosterone and diazepam, were also investigated. Fipronil metabolism was activated by testosterone in HLM but not in CYP3A4 Supersomes®. Testosterone 6β-hydroxylation in HLM was inhibited by fipronil. Fipronil inhibited diazepam demethylation but had little effect on diazepam hydroxylation.

Using pooled human liver microsomes (HLMs), thioether compounds displayed similar affinities; however, phorate and disulfoton displayed higher intrinsic clearance rates than either sulprofos or methiocarb. The sulfoxidation of thioethers by HLMs was found to be predominantly P450-driven (85-90%) compared with FMO (10-15%).

TMOF (YDPAP6) was degraded in vitro (as determined by HPLC and LC/MS) to DPAP6, PAP6, and then AP6 by leucine aminopeptidase, a pancreatic enzyme found in the digestive system of vertebrates. The rate of degradation of TMOF and PAP6 was significantly greater than that of DPAP6, while no metabolism of AP6 was found. TMOF technical insecticide was produced on a commercial scale by recombinant yeast (heat-killed before application). The technical TMOF when administered in a single dose by gavage to male and female mice at 2000 mg dry weight/kg body weight produced no negative effects as compared to controls up to 12 days after treatment. When male and female mallard ducks were treated by gavage with 1250 mg dry weight of technical TMOF/kg body weight each day for 5 days, again no toxic effects were noted through 35 days after the last treatment. TMOF technical insecticide was also applied to the shaved skin of male and female rabbits at the rate of 2000 mg/kg for 1–2 days, with no effect. The end point observations in these in vivo experiments were mortality; changes in growth rate, behavior, body structure, and color; and possible lesions observed during necropsy.

A screen of 16 cDNA-expressed human P450 isoforms demonstrated that 94% of all TST metabolites are produced by members of the CYP3A subfamily with 6beta-OHTST accounting for 86% of all TST metabolites.

Preincubation of HLM with a variety of ligands, including chemicals used in military deployments, resulted in varying levels of inhibition or activation of TST metabolism. The greatest inhibition of TST metabolism in HLM was following preincubation with organophosphorus compounds, including chlorpyrifos, phorate, and fonofos, with up to 80% inhibition noticed for several metabolites including 6beta-OHTST. Preincubation of CYP3A4 with chlorpyrifos, but not chlorpyrifos-oxon, resulted in 98% inhibition of TST metabolism. Phorate and fonofos also inhibited the production of most primary metabolites of CYP3A4. Kinetic analysis indicated that chlorpyrifos was one of the most potent inhibitors of major TST metabolites followed by fonofos and phorate.

Both the affinities and intrinsic clearance of HLM for ring hydroxylation are greater than those for N-deethylation.

In the present study we report that trans-permethrin is metabolized in human liver fractions, producing phenoxybenzyl alcohol (PBOH) and phenoxybenzoic acid (PBCOOH). We identified human alcohol (ADH) and aldehyde dehydrogenases (ALDH) as the enzymes involved in the oxidation of phenoxybenzyl alcohol, the permethrin hydrolysis product, to phenoxybenzoic acid by way of phenoxybenzaldehyde (PBCHO). Cis-permethrin was not significantly metabolized in human liver fractions. Cytochrome P450 isoforms were not involved either in the hydrolysis of trans-permethrin or in the oxidation of PBOH to PBCOOH. Purified ADH isozymes oxidized PBOH to PBCHO and PBOH was a preferred substrate to ethyl alcohol. Purified ALDH was responsible for PBCHO oxidation to PBCOOH with similar substrate affinity to a previously known substrate, benzyl alcohol. Based on these observations, it appears that PBOH is oxidized to PBCHO by ADH and subsequently to PBCOOH by ALDH, although PBCHO does not accumulate during microsomal incubation.

Although previous studies have demonstrated that carbaryl can be metabolized by cytochrome P450 (CYP), the identification and characterization of CYP isoforms involved in metabolism have not been described either in humans or in experimental animals. The in vitro metabolic activities of human liver microsomes (HLM) and human cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoforms toward carbaryl were investigated in this study. The three major metabolites, i.e. 5-hydroxycarbaryl, 4-hydroxycarbaryl and carbaryl methylol, were identified after incubation of carbaryl with HLM or individual CYP isoforms and analysis by HPLC. Most of the 16 human CYP isoforms studied showed some metabolic activity toward carbaryl. CYP1A1 and 1A2 had the greatest ability to form 5-hydroxycarbaryl, while CYP3A4 and CYP1A1 were the most active in generation of 4-hydroxycarbaryl. The production of carbaryl methylol was primarily the result of metabolism by CYP2B6. Differential activities toward carbaryl were observed among five selected individual HLM samples with the largest difference occurring in the production of carbaryl methylol. Co-incubations of carbaryl and chlorpyrifos in HLM greatly inhibited carbaryl metabolism. The ability of HLM to metabolize carbaryl was also reduced by pre-incubation of HLM with chlorpyrifos. Chlorpyrifos inhibited the generation of carbaryl methylol, catalyzed predominately by CYP2B6, more than other pathways, correlating with an earlier observation that chlorpyrifos is metabolized to its oxon primarily by CYP2B6. Therefore, carbaryl metabolism in humans and its interaction with other chemicals is reflected by the concentration of CYP isoforms in HLM and their activities in the metabolic pathways for carbaryl.

Since some of these isoforms are known to be involved in metabolism of endogenous hormones, we also studied the effects of these CYP inducers on testosterone metabolism and seminal vesicle weights. Mirex and DDE treatments had profound effects on the metabolism of testosterone, resulting in 2.5- to 3-fold more hydroxylated products than controls. Lesser, but significant, increases in specific metabolites of testosterone were also observed following treatment with vinclozolin and flutamide. Seminal vesicle weights were lower for all treatment groups except DDE. Results of this study demonstrate that, due to their CYP-inducing potential, these chemicals may significantly impact testosterone metabolism and this may be a contributing factor in their antiandrogenic effects.}, number={3}, journal={PESTICIDE BIOCHEMISTRY AND PHYSIOLOGY}, author={Dai, D and Cao, Y and Falls, G and Levi, PE and Hodgson, E and Rose, RL}, year={2001}, month={Jul}, pages={127–141} } @article{coleman_linderman_hodgson_rose_2000, title={Comparative metabolism of chloroacetamide herbicides and selected metabolites in human and rat liver microsomes.}, volume={108}, ISSN={["0091-6765"]}, DOI={10.2307/3434827}, abstractNote={Acetochlor [2-chloro-N-(ethoxymethyl)-N-(2-ethyl-6-methyl-phenyl)-acetamide], alachlor [N-(methoxymethyl)-2-chloro-N-(2,6-diethyl-phenyl)acetamide], butachlor [N-(butoxymethyl)-2chloro-N-(2,6-diethyl-phenyl)acetamide], and metolachlor [2-chloro-N-(2-ethyl-6-methylphenyl)-N-(2-methoxy-1-methylethyl) acetamide] are pre-emergent herbicides used in the production of agricultural crops.These herbicides are carcinogenic in rats: acetochlor and alachlor cause tumors in the nasal turbinates, butachlor causes stomach tumors, and metolachlor causes liver tumors.It has been suggested that the carcinogenicity of these compounds involves a complex metabolic activation pathway leading to a DNA-reactive dialkylbenzoquinone imine.Important intermediates in this pathway are 2-chloro-N-(2,6-diethylphenyl)acetamide (CDEPA) produced from alachlor and butachlor and 2-chloro-N-(2-methyl-6-ethylphenyl)acetamide (CMEPA) produced from acetochlor and metolachlor.Subsequent metabolism of CDEPA and CMEPA produces 2,6-diethylaniline (DEA) and 2-methyl-6-ethylaniline (MEA), which are bioactivated through para-hydroxylationand subsequent oxidation to the proposed carcinogenic product dialkylbenzoquinone imine.The current study extends our earlier studies with alachlor and demonstrates that rat liver microsomes metabolize acetochlor and metolachlor to CMEPA (0.065 nmol/min/mg and 0.0133 nmol/min/mg, respectively), whereas human liver microsomes can metabolize only acetochlor to CMEPA (0.023 nmol/min/mg).Butachlor is metabolized to CDEPA to a much greater extent by rat liver microsomes (0.045 nmol/min/mg) than by human liver microsomes (< 0.001 nmol/min/mg).We have determined that both rat and human livers metabolize both CMEPA to MEA (0.308 nmol/min/mg and 0.541 nmol/min/mg, respectively) and CDEPA to DEA (0.350 nmol/min/mg and 0.841 nmol/min/mg, respectively).We have shown that both rat and human liver microsomes metabolize MEA (0.035 nmol/min/mg and 0.069 nmol/min/mg, respectively) and DEA (0.041 nmol/min/mg and 0.040 nmol/min/mg, respectively).We have also shown that the cytochrome P450 isoforms responsible for human metabolism of acetochlor, butachlor, and metolachlor are CYP3A4 and CYP2B6.}, number={12}, journal={ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH PERSPECTIVES}, author={Coleman, S and Linderman, R and Hodgson, E and Rose, RL}, year={2000}, month={Dec}, pages={1151–1157} } @article{roe_bailey_gould_sorenson_kennedy_bacheler_rose_hodgson_sutula_2000, title={Detection of resistant insects and IPM}, ISBN={0890542465}, journal={Emerging technologies for integrated pest management : concepts, research, and implementation}, publisher={St. Paul, MN : APS Press,}, author={Roe, R.

Although the AHS was intended to be an integrated program of studies, some significant difficulties have emerged. In this report, we examine the design of the AHS, identify important program strengths and flaws, suggest various improvements in the program, and recommend ancillary studies that could be undertaken to strengthen the AHS. Overall, the AHS is collecting a large amount of information on potential determinants of health status among farmers and farm families. A promising feature of the AHS is the prospective cohort study of cancers among farmers in which the research design determines exposures prior to the diagnosis of disease. More effort needs to be devoted to reducing selection bias and information bias. Success of the cohort study will depend in part on follow-up surveys of the cohort to determine how exposures and disease states change as the cohort ages. The cross-sectional and case-control studies planned in the AHS are less promising because they will be subject to some of the same criticisms, such as potentially biased and imprecise exposure assessment, that have characterized the existing literature in this field. Important limitations of the AHS include low and variable rates of subject response to administered surveys, concerns about the validity of some self-reported non-cancer health outcomes, limited understanding of the reliability and validity of self-reporting of chemical use, an insufficient program of biological monitoring to validate the exposure surrogates employed in the AHS questionnaires, possible confounding by unmeasured, nonchemical risk factors for disease, and the absence of detailed plans for data analysis and interpretation that include explicit, a priori hypotheses. Although the AHS is already well underway, most of these limitations can be addressed by the investigators if adequate resources are made available. If these limitations are not addressed, the large amounts of data generated in the AHS will be difficult to interpret. If the exposure and health data can be validated, the scientific value of the AHS should be substantial and enduring. A variety of research recommendations are made to strengthen the AHS. They include reliability and validity studies of farmer reporting of chemical use, biological monitoring studies of farmers and members of farm families, and validity studies of positive and negative self-reports of disease status.

In the current study, we demonstrate both constitutive levels and induction of CYP1B1 in mouse liver. The induction of CYP1B1 mRNA by PBO or ACN was higher in DBA/2 (Ahrd) than in C57BL/6 (Ahrb−1) mice, while 3‐methylcholanthrene induced CYP1B1 more in C57BL/6 than in DBA/2 mice. These results suggest that CYP1B1 may also be induced by more than one mechanism. In addition, constitutive expression of CYP1B1 was detected in liver, kidney, and lung of untreated C57BL/6 mice.

These two cytochrome P450 genes are known to be regulated by the aromatic hydrocarbon-responsive receptor (AHR); however, it has been suggested that CYP1A2 is also induced by an AHR-independent mechanism. In this study, PBO induced hepatic CYP1A1 considerably more in C57BL/6 (Ahrb-I) than in DBA/2 (Ahrd) mice. In addition, the superinduction of CYP1A1 in wildtype hepa1c1c7 cells, which is AHR-dependent, resulted from PBO and cycloheximide treatment of the cells. In other studies in this laboratory using AHR knock-out (AHR-/-) mice, a hybrid of 129/SV and C57BL/6 strains, no induction of CYP1A1 occurred with PBO or ACN. [D.-Y. Ryu, P.E. Levi, P. Fernandez-Salguero, F.J. Gonzalez, E. Hodgson, Mol. Pharmacol., 50 (1996) 443-446.] ACN, however, did not induce CYP1A1 under the experimental conditions used. These results suggest that PBO, but not ACN, induces CYP1A1 through a weak activation of AHR. On the other hand, hepatic CYP1A2 mRNA and hnRNA were induced by PBO in both C57BL/6 and DBA/2 strains, but were not induced by ACN, a strong inducer of CYP1A2 in the B6C3F1 strain. However, both PBO and ACN induced CYP1A2 in AHR-/- mice. It is assumed, therefore, that the transcriptional induction of CYP1A2 by PBO and ACN is AHR-independent. In addition, the induction of CYP1A2 by ACN depends upon the strain of mice. Immunohistochemical studies for CYP1A1/CYP1A2 apoproteins showed that PBO induced CYP1A1/CYP1A2 around the central veins as did 3-methylcholanthrene (3-MC).

FMO expression was examined in gonadectomized CD-1 mice, normal CD-1 mice receiving hormonal implants, and gonadectomized mice receiving various hormonal treatments. Following castration of males, hepatic FMO activity levels were significantly increased and serum testosterone levels significantly decreased; however, administration of physiological levels of testosterone to castrated animals returned FMO activity and testosterone concentrations to control levels. When sexually intact and ovariectomized female mice were treated with testosterone, their hepatic FMO activity levels were reduced to those of their male counterparts, concomitant with high serum testosterone levels. In males, castration dramatically increased FMO3 and FMO1 expression, and testosterone replacement to castrated males resulted in ablation of FMO3 expression. In addition, testosterone administration to females (sexually intact and gonadectomized animals) reduced FMO1 expression and obviated FMO3 expression. In females, ovariectomy alone slightly reduced FMO activity, indicative of a possible stimulatory role of female sex steroids; however, female FMO isozyme expression was relatively unchanged, and hormone replacement therapy to ovariectomized females had no discernible effect. In males and females, FMO5 levels were unaffected by gonadectomy or hormone administration, thus indicating a sex hormone-independent mechanism of regulation for this isoform. Interestingly, FMO1 protein levels were increased in sexually intact males following treatment with 17 beta-estradiol; however, only a slight increase in FMO3 protein level was observed. No positive hormone effectors of female FMO expression were identified.}, number={2}, journal={ARCHIVES OF BIOCHEMISTRY AND BIOPHYSICS}, author={Falls, JG and Ryu, DY and Cao, Y and Levi, PE and Hodgson, E}, year={1997}, month={Jun}, pages={212–223} } @book{hodgson_levi_1997, title={Textbook of modern toxicology}, ISBN={0838588875}, publisher={Stamford, Conn.: Appleton & Lange}, author={Hodgson, E. and Levi, P.

Current studies of phase I metabolism of pesticides include cytochrome P450 (P450) and the flavin-containing monooxygenase (FMO), with particular reference to individual isozymes. In mouse liver, the level of FMO1 is gender dependent, FMO3 is gender specific, while FMO5 appears to be gender independent. The isozyme specificity of methylenedioxyphenyl synergists for induction of P450 in mouse liver involves P450s 1A1, 1A2 and 2B10, including a non-Ah receptor-dependent mechanism for 1A2 induction.

The cytochrome P450 content of skin as determined by CO-dithionite-reduced minus CO-oxidized spectra was approximately 6.8% of the liver P450 content. By comparison, cytochrome c reductase activity in skin microsomes was high, being equivalent to approximately one-third of the liver microsomal enzyme activity. Skin microsomes metabolized several known P450 substrates and, depending upon the substrate used, the specific activity ranged from 2.5 to 13.4% of the corresponding rates seen in liver microsomes. Skin microsomes exhibited the highest enzymatic activity with benzo[a]pyrene and ethoxyresorufin, moderate activity with parathion and aldrin, and low activity with benzphetamine and ethoxycoumarin. Skin microsomes also metabolized the triazine herbicides atrazine, simazine, and terbutryn, with the activity being 2 to 5% of the liver microsomal activity. FMO activity in skin microsomes with thiobenzamide and methimazole as substrates ranged from 10 to 20% of the liver FMO activity. Immunohistochemical studies using antibodies to mouse liver FMO showed localization primarily in the epidermis. Additional studies using pig skin showed a similar distribution pattern. Antibodies developed to mouse liver FMO and the constitutive liver P450 isozyme, 1A2, showed cross-reactivity on Western blots with proteins in skin microsomes that appeared identical to the cross-reacting proteins present in liver microsomes. The relative contribution of P450 and FMO in mouse skin to the sulfoxidation of phorate was investigated and compared to that of liver microsomes. Several procedures were employed to selectively inhibit either P450 or FMO to determine the role of each monooxygenase system in the absence of the other system. In liver microsomes, P450 was responsible for 68 to 85% of the phorate sulfoxidation activity. In contrast, in skin microsomes 66 to 69% of the phorate sulfoxidation activity was due to FMO, while P450 was responsible for the remainder of the activity. Thus, although the overall phorate sulfoxidation rate in mouse skin microsomes was only 3 to 4% of the rate seen in liver, FMO appears to assume a greater relative role to P450 in the metabolic processes in skin.}, number={1}, journal={PESTICIDE BIOCHEMISTRY AND PHYSIOLOGY}, author={VENKATESH, K and LEVI, PE and INMAN, AO and MONTEIRORIVIERE, NA and MISRA, R and HODGSON, E}, year={1992}, month={May}, pages={53–66} } @inbook{hodgson_motoyama_evered_collins_1984, title={Biochemical mechanisms of resistance to insecticides}, ISBN={9780272797495}, booktitle={Origins and development of adaptation}, publisher={London: Pitman}, author={Hodgson, E. and Motoyama, N. and Evered, D. and Collins, G.

However, the mechanism of H. armigera adaptation to various insecticides and defensive allelochemicals in its host plants is not fully understood. Therefore, this study examined the influence of consumption of plant allelochemicals on larval tolerance to methomyl and chlorpyrifos insecticides in H. armigera and its possible mechanism. Twelve plant allelochemicals were screened to evaluate their effects on larval sensitivity to methomyl. Of which flavone, coumarin, DIMBOA (2,4-Dihydroxy-7-methoxy-1,4-benzoxazin-3-one) and visnagin significantly reduced larval sensitivity to methomyl. Application of cytochrome P450 inhibitor piperonyl butoxide (PBO) significantly increased the mortality of methomyl-treated larvae. In contrast, PBO addition significantly decreased the mortality of chlorpyrifos-treated larvae. Moreover, allelochemical consumption enhanced the activities of glutathione S-transferase, carboxylesterase, cytochrome P450 and acetylcholinesterase in the midgut and fat body. The qRT-PCR analysis confirms that P450 genes, CYP6B2, CYP6B6 and CYP6B7 were induced by the four allelochemicals in the midguts and the fat bodies. In conclusion, the generalist H. armigera can take benefit of plant allelochemicals from its host plants to elaborate its defense against insecticides.}, number={3}, journal={INSECT BIOCHEMISTRY}, author={HODGSON, E}, year={1983}, pages={237–246} } @article{hodgson_ligon_rock_1977, title={SUBSTITUTION OF CHOLINE BY RELATED COMPOUNDS IN DIET OF ARGYROTAENIA-VELUTINANA AND HELIOTHIS-VIRESCENS}, volume={23}, ISSN={["0022-1910"]}, DOI={10.1016/0022-1910(77)90002-6}, abstractNote={Abstract Argyrotaenia velutinana, the red-banded leaf roller, and Heliothis virescens, the tobacco budworm, both require choline for growth and development when reared on semisynthetic diets.

One compound, dimethylethylcholine, will permit some adut emergence but development is slower and mortality is greater than on the corresponding diet containing choline. This is in sharp contrast to a number of Diptera in which mary choline analogs can not only replace choline in the diet but are also incorporated into phospholipids analogous to phosphatidylcholine. In A. velutinana, dimethylisopropylcholine and β-methylcholine, although inadequate as choline replacements, can spare the dietary choline requirement, Isopropylethanolamine is a growth inhibitor for A. velutinana but not for H. virescens.}, number={7}, journal={JOURNAL OF INSECT PHYSIOLOGY}, author={HODGSON, E and LIGON, BG and ROCK, GC}, year={1977}, pages={801–804} } @article{hodgson_tate_kulkarni_plapp_1974, title={MICROSOMAL CYTOCHROME-P-450 - CHARACTERIZATION AND POSSIBLE ROLE IN INSECTICIDE RESISTANCE IN MUSCA-DOMESTICA}, volume={22}, ISSN={["0021-8561"]}, DOI={10.1021/jf60193a027}, abstractNote={ADVERTISEMENT RETURN TO ISSUEPREVArticleNEXTMicrosomal cytochrome P-450.
