摘要

Abstract

Background:

T-2 toxin poses a great threat to human health because it has the highest toxicity of the currently known trichothecene mycotoxins. To understand the in vivo toxicity and transformation mechanism of T-2 toxin

we investigated the role of two principal phase Ⅰ drug-metabolizing enzymes (cytochrome P450 [CYP450] enzymes) on the metabolism of T-2 toxin

which are crucial to the metabolism of endogenous substances and xenobiotics. We also investigated carboxylesterase

which also plays an important role in the metabolism of toxic substances.

Methods:

A chemical inhibition method and a recombinant method were employed to investigate the metabolism of the T-2 toxin by the CYP450 enzymes

and a chemical inhibition method was used to study carboxylesterase metabolism. Samples incubated with human liver microsomes were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography-triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (HPLC- QqQ MS) after a simple pretreatment.

Results:

In the presence of a carboxylesterase inhibitor

only 20% T-2 toxin was metabolized. When CYP enzyme inhibitors and a carboxylesterase inhibitor were both present

only 3% of the T-2 toxin was metabolized. The contributions of the CYP450 enzyme family to T-2 toxin metabolism followed the descending order CYP3A4

CYP2E1

CYP1A2

CYP2B6 or CYP2D6 or CYP2C19.

Conclusions:

Carboxylesterase and CYP450 enzymes are of great importance in T-2 toxin metabolism

in which carboxylesterase is predominant and CYP450 has a subordinate role. CYP3A4 is the principal member of the CYP450 enzyme family responsible for T-2 toxin metabolism. The metabolite produced by carboxylesterase is HT-2

and the metabolite produced by CYP 3A4 is 3’-OH T-2. The different metabolites show different toxicities. Our results will provide useful data concerning the toxic mechanism

the safety evaluation

and the health risk assessment of T-2 toxin.
