Butylated hydroxyanisole induces vascular endothelial injury via TFEB-mediated degradation of GPX4 and FTH1.
Food and Chemical Toxicology 2024 April 23
Butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) is one of the most commonly used antioxidants and is widely used in food, but whether it causes vascular damage has not been clearly studied. The present study demonstrated for the first time that BHA reduced the viability of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and mouse brain microvascular endothelial cells (BEND3) in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Moreover, BHA inhibited the migration and proliferation of vascular endothelial cells (ECs). Further analysis revealed that in ECs, the ferroptosis inhibitor ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1) reversed the BHA-induced increase in Fe2+ and malonaldehyde (MDA) levels. Acridine orange staining demonstrated that BHA increased lysosomal permeability. At the protein level, BHA increased the expression of transcription factor EB (TFEB) and decreased the expression of glutathione peroxidase (GPX4), solute carrier family 7 member 11 (SLC7A11, xCT), and ferritin heavy chain 1 (FTH1). Moreover, these effects of BHA could be reversed by knocking down TFEB. In vivo experiments confirmed that BHA caused elevated pulse wave velocity (PWV) and reduced acetylcholine-dependent vascular endothelial diastole. In conclusion, BHA degrades GPX4, xCT, and FTH1 through activation of the TFEB-mediated lysosomal pathway and promotes ferroptosis, ultimately leading to vascular endothelial cell injury.
