RESUMO

Chlorpyrifos (CPF) is an organophosphate pesticide, commonly detected in water and food. Despite CPF toxicity on aquatic species has been extensively studied, few studies analyze the effects of CPF on fish transcriptional pathways. The Pregnane X receptor (PXR) is a nuclear receptor that is activated by binding to a wide variety of ligands and regulates the transcription of enzymes involved in the metabolism and transport of many endogenous and exogenous compounds. We evaluated the mRNA expression of PXR-regulated-genes (PXR, CYP3A27, CYP2K1, ABCB1, UGT, and ABCC2) in intestine and liver of the rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, exposed in vivo to an environmentally relevant CPF concentration. Our results demonstrate that the expression of PXR and PXR-regulated genes is increased in O. mykiss liver and intestine upon exposure to CPF. Additionally, we evaluated the impact of CPF on other cellular pathway involved in xenobiotic metabolism, the Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor (AhR) pathway, and on the expression and activity of different biotransformation enzymes (CYP2M1, GST, FMO1, or cholinesterases (ChEs)). In contrast to PXR, the expression of AhR, and its target gene CYP1A, are reduced upon CPF exposure. Furthermore, ChE and CYP1A activities are significantly inhibited by CPF, in both the intestine and the liver. CPF activates the PXR pathway in O. mykiss in the intestine and liver, with a more profound effect in the intestine. Likewise, our results support regulatory crosstalk between PXR and AhR pathways, where the induction of PXR coincides with the downregulation of AhR-mediated CYP1A mRNA expression and activity in the intestine.
