Project description:Consumers are exposed through food intake to a cocktail of pesticides at low doses. Epidemiological evidence suggested a link between pesticide exposure and the development of the metabolic syndrome. We used a mouse model to mimic consumer exposure and assessed the metabolic consequences of a chronic dietary exposure to a cocktail of 6 commonly used pesticides (boscalid, captan, chlorpyrifos, thiofanate, thiacloprid and ziram) at non-toxic doses (acceptable daily intake ADI). One year of exposure induced body weight and adiposity gain, hepatic steatosis and glucose intolerance in males. Females did not display significant changes in body weight but displayed fasted hyperglycemia and perturbations of gut-microbiota related urinary metabolites. Exposure of mice invalidated for the constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) demonstrated that this nuclear receptor was involved in the observed sexual dimorphic response to pesticide exposure. These results demonstrate for the first time that chronic dietary exposure to a pesticide cocktail at the ADI levels induces metabolic perturbations favouring obesity and diabetic state and raise the questions of the relevance of the ADI levels of individual pesticides when present in mixture.
Project description:Human health effects from chronic exposure to pesticide residues are little investigated. We compared standard histopathology and serum biochemistry measures and multi-omics analyses in an in vivo subchronic toxicity test of a glyphosate, its formulated product MON 52276, and mixture of six pesticide active ingredients frequently detected in foodstuffs (azoxystrobin, boscalid, chlorpyrifos, glyphosate, imidacloprid and thiabendazole). Sprague-Dawley rats were administered with the pesticide mixture with each ingredient at its regulatory permitted acceptable daily intake.

Project description:Obesity is a major contributor to metabolic and cardiovascular diseases. Senescence is a highly dynamic process activated by diverse stimuli and increased cellular senescence has been associated with age-related disorders. Here, we investigated the impact of cellular senescence in obesogenic diet-related metabolic and cardiac dysfunctions. An obesogenic diet induced an increase on body weight gain and adiposity, glucose intolerance, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, and hepatic disorders in mice; however, these alterations were prevented by a senolytic cocktail (dasatinib and quercetin), which leads to removal of senescent cells. In addition, the elimination of senescent cells counteracted the activation of the senescent program and DNA damage in the white adipose tissue (WAT) induced by an obesogenic diet. Obese mice had an increase of the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) and DNA damage in the heart, cardiac hypertrophy, and diastolic dysfunction; however, the use of a senolytic combination abolished these myocardial alterations caused by an obesogenic diet. Transcriptomic analysis of the hearts revealed that obese mice exhibited a downregulation of genes associated with fatty acid metabolism, oxidative phosphorylation, PI3K AKT MTOR signaling, P53 pathway, and DNA repair; however, the treatment with senolytic cocktail induced an increase of these pathways in the heart. Collectively, these data suggest that obesogenic diet elicits WAT and cardiac senescence program in mice, and that targeting senescent cells may be a novel therapeutic strategy for attenuating obesity-related metabolic and cardiac disorders.
