Abstract

25

A surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy analysis (SPR) was used for the characterization of the

26

interaction between pesticides and a cell membrane model. A liposome was immobilized onto the

27

surface of the SPR sensor chip (L1), and the lipid bilayer membrane formed on the sensor chip was

28

regarded as the cell membrane model. The solution containing a pesticide was flowed onto the sensor

29

chip, and an SPR sensorgram, which reflected the interaction between the pesticide and the lipid

30

bilayer membrane, was obtained. As the results, the pattern and strength of the interaction of the

31

pesticides with the cell membrane model were visualized and quantified. Triflumizole, hexythiazox,

32

and pentachlorophenol showed a strong interaction with the lipid bilayer. It is well known that

33

triflumizole and pentachlorophenol interact with the membrane, and reveal toxicities for cell

34

membranes. In addition, there was a tendency for higher residual ratios to be observed when the no

35

observable adverse effect level (NOAEL) values for chronic toxicity (1-year toxicity study in dogs)

36

were lower. We suggest that a novel parameter for the evaluation or presumption of the behaviors

37

and chronic toxicities of pesticides is obtained by the presented method.

INTRODUCTION

44

Pesticides have been widely used all over the world, and diffuse into the environment. In fact, they have

45

been detected from various environmental media, such as river water,

46

organisms, 3 and the human body. 4 The exposure of pesticides can induce adverse effects on living

47

creatures. Therefore, it is very important to obtain information about their behavior in the body. Currently,

48

there are many reports concerning the accumulation of pesticides in body organs and tissues. 5,6 However,

49

there is little information about the behaviors of pesticides at the surface of cells on a biomolecular level.

50

The log Kow values have been extensively used for the evaluation of the bioaccumulation of pesticides.7

51

However, this parameter only reflects the hydrophobic nature of the compounds. The log Kow values are

52

not suitable to consider the intravital behavior of the pesticides containing polar functional groups8,

53

because they can interact with biomolecules in the body by hydrogen bonding or a Coulomb interaction.

Surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy analysis (SPR) is a technique to visualize the interaction

55

between a compound on a sensor chip and chemicals in the mobile phase in real time. SPR is a rapid and

56

simple method to observe the interaction of the target compound with the surface of the sensor chip. The

57

technique can sensitively detect the interactions, and have been applied to the analysis of pesticides or

58

biomolecules using antigen-antibody complex reactions. 9, 10

liposomes and drugs, such as naptoxen, ketoprofen, pindolol, suprofen, etc., in the field of pharmaceutical

63

research.13 Furthermore, the binding of air particles to phospholipid vesicles immobilized on an SPR

64

sensor chip, which was a membrane model of epithelial cells in respiration organs, was measured in order

65

to evaluate and characterize air particles.14

66

In this study, we suggested a novel method for the evaluation of pesticides using SPR analysis. A

67

liposome was immobilized onto the SPR L1 sensor chip, and a solution containing a pesticide was flowed

68

onto the surface of the sensor chip (Fig. 1). The obtained SPR sensorgram was used for the evaluation of

69

the interaction between the pesticide and the cell membrane model. It is expected that the patterns and

70

strength of the interactions of the pesticide with the cell membrane could be obtained by this method. The

71

obtained data would be useful for estimating the behavior and toxicities of pesticides. Seventeen pesticides

72

were selected and analyzed for characterization of their interaction with the cell membrane model.

(1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) was from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO, USA). The SPR

82

reagents for washing the SPR system, BIA desorb solution1and BIA desorb solution 2, were purchased

83

from GE Healthcare (Buckingham shire, UK). The 0.1% bovine serum albumin (BSA) solution was from

84

Takara Bio, Inc. (Shiga, Japan). Pure water was prepared by an automatic water distillation apparatus (MQ

85

academic A10, Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA). HBS-N was used as the running buffer.

86

Immobilization of DOPC onto the SPR sensor chip. The immobilization method of DOPC onto

87

the sensor chip L1 was similar to that in references 10. DOPC was suspended in the HBS-N running buffer.

88

The DOPC suspension (10 mM) was frozen, thawed, and vortexed five times to completely agitate it. The

89

obtained DOPC suspension was then extruded 25 times through a 50-nm polycarbonate filter using a

90

Mini-Extruder (Avanti Polar Lipid, Alabaster, AL, USA), and the liposomes were formed.

91

The L1 sensor chip (GE Healthcare) was placed in the Biacore X system (GE Healthcare) and washed

92

with 40 mM n-octyl-β-D-glucopyranoside at the flow rate of 10 µL min-1 for 10 min. The liposome was

93

diluted in the HBS-N running buffer to a concentration of 0.5 mM. The suspension was added to the sensor

94

chip at a flow rate of 2.0 µL min-1 to generate a lipid bilayer on the chip until achieving the resonance unit

95

value (RU) at 6500. Erb et al. reported that a stable lipid bilayer was generated on the surfaces of the L1

96

sensor chip by adding the liposome suspension.15 The liposome was fused, and homogeneously covered

97

the surface of the L1 sensor chip. The phenomenon was confirmed by atomic force microscopy and

98

fluorescence microscopy.15 The surface of the sensor chip was washed with 50 mM NaOH at 2.0 µL min-1

99

for 5 min, then 100 µg mL-1 of BSA was flowed over the sensor chip at 2.0 µL min-1. It was reported that

5

100

BSA binds strongly to the dextran matrix of the L1 sensor chip, but binds weakly to the liposome, and the

101

increased signal by an injection of BSA onto the sensor chip immobilized the liposome was low (37± 25

102

RU).15 Therefore, it was regarded that the stabilization of the liposome onto the sensor chip was achieved

103

when the increased RU by the addition of BSA was < 100. The analysis methods mentioned below were

104

used when the increased RU was below 100.

SPR analysis. The methanol/ HEPES buffer (1/99; v/v) solutions containing a pesticide (62.5, 125, 250,

106

500, or 1000 µM) were prepared. The SPR signals of the pesticides at 62.5 µM were enough high to detect

107

(signal / noise (at 50-100 sec) > 10). In addition, higher the concentration of the solution (62.5-1000 µM)

108

were, the higher the RU values were. The result indicated that the adsorption sites on the sensor chip were

109

not fully saturated at these concentrations. Based on these results, the concentration of the solution was set

110

at 62.5, 125, 250, 500, or 1000 µM. It was reported that the addition of methanol to the analyte solution
