Estrogenic Activity of Alkyl(thio)phenols and 4,4'-thiodiphenol Formed from Degradation of Commercial Insecticides

Abstract: We investigated the estrogenic activity of commercial insecticides fenamiphos, fenthion, methiocarb, propaphos, sulprophos, and temephos as well as some phenolic compounds obtained as a result of their degradation. Using a yeast two-hybrid assay, the relative activities of 4-(methylthio)phenol, 3-methyl-4-(methylthio)phenol, 3,5-dimethyl-4-(methylthio)phenol, and 4,4 -thiodiphenol (TDP) were evaluated as 11, 10, 4, and 1000% (10 times) that of bisphenol-A. To reveal the binding abilities of the abovementioned … Show more

“…TDP is one of the sulfur-containing BPs, in addition to BPS, but it has a sulfide structure linking to two phenols. TDP has higher endocrine disrupting activity relative to BPA [18,25], although less information on its biodegradation is available. TDP can be generated as a metabolite from organophosphorus pesticides such as temphos [25].…”

“…TDP has higher endocrine disrupting activity relative to BPA [18,25], although less information on its biodegradation is available. TDP can be generated as a metabolite from organophosphorus pesticides such as temphos [25]. In the degradation of TDP, 40% of TDP was degraded in 6 h (Table 1) and only one metabolite was detected ( Figure S4b), which was not HQ.…”

“…These results support the concept that shorter-term in vivo assays are feasible and can recapitulate some of the more long-term endpoints of the amphibian metamorphosis assay. 557 214. Numerous studies are now incorporating transcriptional responses as short-term measures of in vivo HPT axis disruption.…”

“…These chemicals are additionally utilized in the manufacture of resins and plastics, including the substitution for BPA [2,6]. However, bisphenols other than BPA also have acute and chronic toxicities and endocrine disrupting potential [7][8][9]. In addition, there have been many reports on the detection of various bisphenols in human urine, placental tissue, umbilical cord, blood, and breast milk [4,[10][11][12].…”
