Abstract

Abstract Purpose: Methyl triclosan (MTCS) is one of the biomethylated by-products of triclosan (TCS). With the increasing use of TCS, the adverse effects of MTCS have attracted extensive attention in recent years. The purpose of this study was to investigate the cytotoxicity of MTCS and to explore the underlining mechanism using human hepatocyte L02 cells as in vitro model. Results: The cytotoxicity results revealed that MTCS could inhibit cell viability, disturb the ratio of reduced glutathione (GSH) and oxidized glutathione (GSSG), and reduce the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, MTCS exposure significantly promoted the cellular metabolic process, including enhanced conversion of glucose to lactic acid, and elevated content of intracellular triglyceride (TG) and total cholesterol (TC). RNA-sequencing and bioinformatics analysis indicated disorder of glucose and lipid metabolism was significantly induced after MTCS exposure. Protein-protein interaction network analysis and node identification suggested that Serine hydroxy methyltransferase 2 (SHMT2), Methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase 2 (MTHFD2), Asparagine synthetase (ASNS) and Phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH) are potential molecular markers of metabolism imbalance induced by MTCS. Conclusion: These results demonstrated that oxidative stress and metabolism dysregulation might be involved in the cytotoxicity of MTCS in L02 cells.
