Comparative proteomic analysis reveals the different hepatotoxic mechanisms of human hepatocytes exposed to silver nanoparticles

ABSTRACT: Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), which have been used extensively in consuming products and eventually released into the natural environment, have aroused concerns recently because of their potentially harmful effects on human beings following various routes of exposure. As the liver is one of the largest accumulation and deposition sites of circulatory AgNPs, it is important to evaluate the hepatotoxicity induced by AgNPs. However, the acting mechanisms of AgNPs-induced hepatotoxicity are still elusive to a great extent. Herein, we investigated the hepatotoxic effects of AgNPs using a comparative proteomics approach. First, we evaluated the cytotoxicity of different-sized AgNPs and found that the cancerous liver cells were generally more sensitive than the normal liver cells. Next, proteomics results suggested that HepG2 and L02 cells showed distinct adaptive responses upon AgNPs exposure. HepG2 cells respond to stresses by adapting energy metabolism, upregulating metallothionein expression and increasing the expression of antioxidants, while L02 cells protect themselves by increasing DNA repair and macro-autophagy. Besides, mitochondrial ROS has been identified as one of the causes of AgNPs-induced hepatotoxicity. Collectively, our results revealed that hepatic cancer cells and normal cells cope with AgNPs in notably different pathways, providing new insights into mechanisms underlying AgNPs-induced hepatotoxicity.

Project description:Primary human hepatocytes (PHH) are a main instrument in drug metabolism research and in the prediction of drug-induced phase I/II enzyme induction in humans. The HepG2 liver-derived cell line is commonly used as a surrogate for human hepatocytes, but their use in ADME and toxicity studies can be limited because of lowered basal levels of metabolizing enzymes. Despite their widespread use, the transcriptome of HepG2 cells compared to PHH is not well characterized. In this study, microarray analysis was conducted to ascertain the differences and similarities in mRNA expression between HepG2 cells and human hepatocytes before and after exposure to a panel of fluoroquinolone compounds. Comparison of the naÃ¯ve HepG2 cell and PHH transcriptomes revealed a substantial number of basal gene expression differences. When HepG2 cells were dosed with a series of fluoroquinolones, trovafloxacin, which has been associated with human idiosyncratic hepatotoxicity, induced substantially more gene expression changes than the other quinolones, similar to previous observations with PHH. While TVX-treatment resulted in many gene expression differences between HepG2 cells and PHH, there were also a number of TVX-induced commonalities, including genes involved in RNA processing and mitochondrial function. Taken together, these results provide insight for interpretation of results from drug metabolism and toxicity studies conducted with HepG2 cells in lieu of PHH, and could provide further insight into the mechanistic evaluation of TVX-induced hepatotoxicity. Experiment Overall Design: HepG2 cells were obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (Rockville, MD). The cells were cultured in Minimum Essential Medium (Invitrogen Life Technologies, Carlsbad,CA) with 10% Fetal Bovine Serum under a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere using T-162 plastic culture flasks. The cells were split when they reached approximately 70-85% confluence after washing with sterile phosphate buffered saline and detachment of the cells with trypsin (Invitrogen Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA). The HepG2 cells were cultured in 6-well plastic plates upon exposure to quinolone compounds. Primary human hepatocytes, obtained from In Vitro Technologies (IVT, Baltimore, MD) in 6-well type I collagen coated plates, were cultured with 2 mL of Hepatocyte Incubation Media (IVT) at 37Â°C with 5% CO2 for 24 hours after receipt. Experiment Overall Design: For the genomic experiments, quinolone compounds, dissolved in 0.1 N KOH (Sigma Chemical Co., St. Louis, MO), were added to the wells with fresh media at levels of 100 ÂµM (HepG2) or 400 ÂµM (primary human hepatocytes) for 24 hours using at least two technical replicates. Trovafloxacin was dosed using two separate preparations of HepG2 cells and two separate donors of human hepatocytes. Vehicle control cells were dosed with an equivalent volume of 0.1N KOH as the experimental samples. For intracellular comparison (HepG2 cells vs PHH), naÃ¯ve cells were harvested using TRIzolâ?¢ reagent (Invitrogen Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA). Experiment Overall Design: Total RNA was isolated from the TRIzolâ?¢ extracts using the standard procedure from the manufacturer. O.D. at 260 nm determined RNA concentrations. RNA quality was accessed using an Agilent Technologies bioanalyzer before proceeding to microarray sample preparation. Microarray analysis was performed using the standard protocol provided by Affymetrix Inc. (Santa Clara, CA) and as previously described, starting with 5 Âµg of total RNA (Richert et al., 2006). Experiment Overall Design: Fragmented, labeled cRNA was hybridized to an Affymetrix human genome U133A array, which contains sequences corresponding to roughly 22,200 transcripts at 45Â°C overnight. The arrays were washed, developed, and scanned.

Project description:Several groups have shown that through evolution experiments, tolerance evolved rapidly under cyclic antibiotic treatment which then promote the emergence of resistance. In other words, intermittent antibiotic exposure will “train” the bacteria to become tolerant to the drug, and then boost the chances for them to become fully resistant. This evolutionary trajectory of evolving tolerance and resistance not only occurs in vitro, but also in clinical patients with MRSA blood infections. Despite the fact that repetitive antibiotic treatment will lead to tolerance and resistance development in bacterial populations, the difference on the evolutionary path between those treated with a single drug and drug combination remains unaddressed. In this study, we monitored the development of tolerance in MRSA by treating them with either daptomycin alone for 2 weeks (Scheme 1), or daptomycin combined with rifampin for two weeks (Scheme 2), in a cyclic manner. In addition, we also investigate another scenario where we treat MRSA cells with daptomycin alone for one week, and subsequently treat them with daptomycin and rifampin combination in the second week (Scheme 3). At the end of the evolution experiment, we observed that the population from Scheme 1 developed tolerance towards daptomycin, the population from Scheme 2 developed both tolerance and resistance towards daptomycin, while the population from Scheme 3 developed tolerance after a week of treatment, but then the tolerance phenotype diminished at the end of the second week due to the drug combination treatment. We subjected them to whole genome sequencing and identified single point mutations that are responsible for the observed phenotype. Through proteomics, we compared the proteome profile of the population evolved from scheme 1 (S1D14), scheme 2 (S2D14) and scheme 3 (S3D14), and we observed that these three populations employ distinct mechanisms to survive antibiotic treatment, suggesting that the treatment strategy for these populations should be tailored depending on the treatment conditions.
