Induction of human hepatic cytochrome P-450 3A4 expression by antifungal succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors.
Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety 2024 April 4
Succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors (SDHIs) are widely-used fungicides, to which humans are exposed and for which putative health risks are of concern. In order to identify human molecular targets for these agrochemicals, the interactions of 15 SDHIs with expression and activity of human cytochrome P-450 3A4 (CYP3A4), a major hepatic drug metabolizing enzyme, were investigated in vitro. 12/15 SDHIs, i.e., bixafen, boscalid, fluopyram, flutolanil, fluxapyroxad, furametpyr, isofetamid, isopyrazam, penflufen, penthiopyrad, pydiflumetofen and sedaxane, were found to enhance CYP3A4 mRNA expression in human hepatic HepaRG cells and primary human hepatocytes exposed for 48 h to 10 µM SDHIs, whereas 3/15 SDHIs, i.e., benzovindiflupyr, carboxin and thifluzamide, were without effect. The inducing effects were concentrations-dependent for boscalid (EC50 =22.5 µM), fluopyram (EC50 =4.8 µM) and flutolanil (EC50 =53.6 µM). They were fully prevented by SPA70, an antagonist of the Pregnane X Receptor, thus underlining the implication of this xenobiotic-sensing receptor. Increase in CYP3A4 mRNA in response to SDHIs paralleled enhanced CYP3A4 protein expression for most of SDHIs. With respect to CYP3A4 activity, it was directly inhibited by some SDHIs, including bixafen, fluopyram, fluxapyroxad, isofetamid, isopyrazam, penthiopyrad and sedaxane, which therefore appears as dual regulators of CYP3A4, being both inducer of its expression and inhibitor of its activity. The inducing effect nevertheless predominates for these SDHIs, except for isopyrazam and sedaxane, whereas boscalid and flutolanil were pure inducers of CYP3A4 expression and activity. Most of SDHIs appear therefore as in vitro inducers of CYP3A4 expression in cultured hepatic cells, when, however, used at concentrations rather higher than those expected in humans in response to environmental or dietary exposure to these agrochemicals.
