Metabolism disrupting chemicals (MDCs) are a class of endocrine disrupting substances that promote metabolic changes leading to metabolic disorders in humans. Central to assessing their adverse effects is the need to better understand their modes of action (MoA). Cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes play a major role in xenobiotic metabolism, but also catalyse many endogenous metabolic reactions. Therefore, modulation of CYP functionality may impact homeostasis, contributing to adverse outcomes. At the functional level, alteration of the activity of human CYPs J o u r n a l P r e -p r o o f by MDCs largely remains unexplored. In this study we investigated the capability of six candidate MDCs, bisphenol A (BPA), perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), tributyltin (TBT), dichlorodiphenyldichloroethylene (p,p'-DDE), triclosan (TCS) and triphenylphosphate (TPP) to induce CYP1A2, CYP2B6 and CYP3A4 activities in the human hepatic HepaRG cell line. The CYP induction test method previously validated for pharmaceuticals was optimised and selected MDCs were tested in the context of the European Horizon 2020 GOLIATH project. Induction was revealed using a cocktail of CYP-selective probe substrates, followed by probe metabolite quantification by mass spectrometry. All MDCs except TCS induced CYP activities. PFOA, TBT, p,p'-DDE and TPP induced CYP1A2, TPP being the most potent inducer. BPA, PFOA, TBT and TPP induced CYP2B6, PFOA being the most potent inducer. BPA, PFOA, TBT, p,p'-DDE and TPP all induced CYP3A4, p,p'-DDE and BPA being the most potent inducers. These results highlight the capability of candidate MDCs to induce key CYP activities in a human hepatic relevant model, paving the way for a better understanding of MDCs mechanisms of action.
