摘要: As an efficient triazole fungicide, prothioconazole (PTC) is widely used for the prevention and control of plant fungal pathogens. It was reported that the residues of PTC and prothioconazole-desthio (PTC-d) have been detected in the environment and crops, and the effects of PTC-d may be higher than that of PTC. Currently, PTC and PTC-d have been proven to induce hepatic metabolic disorders. However, their toxic effects on cellular bile acid (BA) and glucolipid metabolism remain unknown. In this study, HepG2 cells were exposed to 1-500 mu M of PTC or PTC-d. High concentrations of PTC and PTC-d were found to induce cytotoxicity; thus, subsequent experimental exposure was conducted at concentrations of 10-50 mu M. The expression levels of CYP7A1 and TG synthesis-related genes and levels of TG and total BA were observed to increase in HepG2 cells. Molecular docking analysis revealed direct interactions between PTC or PTC-d and CYP7A1 protein. To further investigate the underlying mechanisms, PTC and PTC-d were treated to HepG2 cells in which CYP7A1 expression was knocked down using siCYP7A1. It was observed that PTC and PTC-d affected the BA metabolism process and regulated the glycolipid metabolism process by promoting the expression of CYP7A1. In summary, we comprehensively analyzed the effects and mechanisms of PTC and PTC-d on cellular metabolism in HepG2 cells, providing theoretical data for evaluating the safety and potential risks associated with these substances.
