Here we toxicologically characterize a recently identified oxo-AsHC 332 metabolite, thioxo-AsHC 348 in cultured human liver (HepG2) cells. Compared to results of previous studies of the parent compound oxo-AsHC 332, thioxo-AsHC 348 substantially affected cell viability in the same concentration range but exerted about 10-fold lower cellular bioavailability. Similar to oxo-AsHC 332, thioxo-AsHC 348 did not substantially induce oxidative stress nor DNA damage. Moreover, in contrast to oxo-AsHC 332 mitochondria seem not to be a primary subcellular toxicity target for thioxo-AsHC 348. This study indicates that thioxo-AsHC 348 is at least as toxic as its parent compound oxo-AsHC 332 but very likely acts via a different mode of toxic action, which still needs to be identified.}, language = {en} } @article{BornhorstEbertMeyeretal.2020, author = {Bornhorst, Julia and Ebert, Franziska and Meyer, S{\"o}ren and Ziemann, Vanessa and Xiong, Chan and Guttenberger, Nikolaus and Raab, Andrea and Baesler, Jessica and Aschner, Michael and Feldmann, J{\"o}rg and Francesconi, Kevin and Raber, Georg and Schwerdtle, Tanja}, title = {Toxicity of three types of arsenolipids}, series = {Metallomics}, volume = {12}, journal = {Metallomics}, number = {5}, publisher = {Oxford University Press}, address = {Cambridge}, issn = {1756-591X}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1039/d0mt00039f}, pages = {794 -- 798}, year = {2020}, abstract = {Although fish and seafood are well known for their nutritional benefits, they contain contaminants that might affect human health. Organic lipid-soluble arsenic species, so called arsenolipids, belong to the emerging contaminants in these food items; their toxicity has yet to be systematically studied. Here, we apply the in vivo model Caenorhabditis elegans to assess the effects of two arsenic-containing hydrocarbons (AsHC), a saturated arsenic-containing fatty acid (AsFA), and an arsenic-containing triacylglyceride (AsTAG) in a whole organism. Although all arsenolipids were highly bioavailable in Caenorhabditis elegans, only the AsHCs were substantially metabolized to thioxylated or shortened metabolic products and induced significant toxicity, affecting both survival and development. Furthermore, the AsHCs were several fold more potent as compared to the toxic reference arsenite. This study clearly indicates the need for a full hazard identification of subclasses of arsenolipids to assess whether they pose a risk to human health.}, language = {en} }
