Mycotoxins are frequent toxic contaminants in foods and beverages, causing a significant health threat. Interactions of mycotoxins with biotransformation enzymes (e.g., cytochrome P450 enzymes, sulfotransferases, and uridine 5′-diphospho-glucuronosyltransferases) may be important due to their possible detoxification or toxic activation during enzymatic processes. Furthermore, mycotoxin-induced enzyme inhibition may affect the biotransformation of other molecules. A recent study described the strong inhibitory effects of alternariol and alternariol-9-methylether on the xanthine oxidase (XO) enzyme. Therefore, we aimed to test the impacts of 31 mycotoxins (including the masked/modified derivatives of alternariol and alternariol-9-methylether) on XO-catalyzed uric acid formation. Besides the in vitro enzyme incubation assays, mycotoxin depletion experiments and modeling studies were performed. Among the mycotoxins tested, alternariol, alternariol-3-sulfate, and α-zearalenol showed moderate inhibitory actions on the enzyme, representing more than tenfold weaker impacts compared with the positive control inhibitor allopurinol. In mycotoxin depletion assays, XO did not affect the concentrations of alternariol, alternariol-3-sulfate, and α-zearalenol in the incubates; thus, these compounds are inhibitors but not substrates of the enzyme. Experimental data and modeling studies suggest the reversible, allosteric inhibition of XO by these three mycotoxins. Our results help the better understanding of the toxicokinetic interactions of mycotoxins. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
