Project description:In the present study OMICs analysis was employed to investigate the early molecular responses of zebrafish embryos to exposure to the fungicide metalaxyl. Metalaxyl, a nucleic acid metabolism inhibitor according to Fungicide Resistance Action Committee (FRAC) classification, may also induce adverse effects on non-target organisms inhabiting the environment. Early molecular responses in terms of transcriptome and proteome analysis were investigated and refined to select potentially substance specific biomarker candidates for early prediction of metalaxyl toxicity in zebrafish embryos.

Project description:In the present study OMICs analysis was employed to investigate the early molecular responses of zebrafish embryos to exposure to the fungicide difenoconazole. Difenoconazole, a sterol biosynthesis inhibitor according to Fungicide Resistance Action Committee (FRAC) classification, may also induce adverse effects on non-target organisms inhabiting the environment. Early molecular responses in terms of transcriptome and proteome analysis were investigated and refined to select potentially substance specific biomarker candidates for early prediction of difenoconazole toxicity in zebrafish embryos.

Project description:Pyrimethanil (PYR) is a world-wide used fungicide approved for use in plant protection products in Agriculture, and with some (eco)toxicological concerns.We aimed at finding molecular biomarkers in the model yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae that may be used to predict potential cytotoxic effects of this xenobiotic while providing mechanistic clues possibly relevant for experimentally less accessible non-target eukaryotes. We used microarrays to carry out a gene expression profiling analysis in S. cereviseae strain BY4741 upon 2 hours exposure to PYR at concentrations exerting moderate to median levels of phenotypic effects (inhibition of yeast growth rate). Two exposure scenarios were analysed, namely the 20% and 50%-inhibitory concentrations of PYR (IC20 and IC50, respectively), compared to control cells not exposed to the fungicide (CT02).

Exponential standardized cell suspensions of S. cerevisiae BY4741 in minimal growth medium were incubated in the presence of 20 and 110 mg/L of PYR (corresponding to the PYR IC20 and IC50, respectively), or in medium non-supplemented with the fungicide (control cells, CT02) during 2 h, and used for total RNA isolation and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. Exposure experiments with both concentrations of PYR and with control cells were carried out together. For each exposure condition, independent biological triplicates were processed and analysed.

Project description:Resistance to agricultural fungicides in the field has created a need for discovering fungicides with new modes of action. DNA microarrays, because they provide information on expression of many genes simultaneously, could help to identify the modes of action. To begin an expression pattern database for agricultural fungicides, transcriptional patterns of Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain S288C genes were analysed following 2-h treatments with I50 concentrations of ergosterol biosynthesis inhibitors commonly used against plant pathogenic fungi. Eight fungicides, representing three classes of ergosterol biosynthesis inhibitors, were tested. To compare gene expression in response to a fungicide with a completely different mode of action, a putative methionine biosynthesis inhibitor (MBI) was also tested. Expression patterns of ergosterol biosynthetic genes supported the roles of Class I and Class II inhibitors in affecting ergosterol biosynthesis, confirmed that the putative MBI did not affect ergosterol biosynthesis, and strongly suggested that in yeast, the Class III inhibitor did not affect ergosterol biosynthesis. The MBI affected transcription of three genes involved in methionine metabolism, whereas there were essentially no effects of ergosterol synthesis inhibitors on methionine metabolism genes. There were no consistent patterns in other up- or downregulated genes between fungicides. These results suggest that inspection of gene response patterns within a given pathway may serve as a useful first step in identifying possible modes of action of fungicides. agricultural sterol biosynthesis inhibitor fungicides.

Project description:Chlorothalonil (2,4,5,6-tetrachloroisophthalonitrile) is a broad spectrum fungicide used extensively in agricultural crops . The aim of this study is to analyse the effects of Chorothalonil on the gene expression profiles in zebrafish (Danio rerio), exposed to two concentrations of the fungicide in the water. Nominal concentrations were 1) Low 0.007mg/l (environmentally relevent) and 2) High 0.035mg/ml . A commercial third generation microarray for Danio rerio (Agielnt V3, 4x44k) was used to identify patterns of gene expression in male livers during a 96h toxicological assay. Replicates: Six control, five low and four high concentrations ; 15 samples examined. Expression profiles of male livers compared. Two concentrations of the fungicide chlorothalonil were compared.
