The analysis showed that, except for a1cohol, the sum of all known dietary carcinogens could only explain a few percent of the cancer deaths attributed by epidemiologists to dietary factors. The discrepancy was explained by a "carcinogenicity" of excess macronutrients. This hypothesis was based on an evaluation of dietary restriction experiments in rats and mice, where a dramatic reducing effect on spontaneaus tumour formation was seen. From these experiments, a "carcinogenic potency" was deduced for food in excess (TD50 approximately 16 g/kg per day). Ovemutrition in Switzerland was converted into excess food intake and the cancer risk estimated on the basis ofthe TD50 value. The resulting risk of60,000 cases per one million lives wou1d aJlow to explain by overnutrition almost all "diet-related" cancer deaths in humans.},

(i) Induction and saturation of enzymatic activation and detoxification processes and of DNA repair affect the relationship between dose and steady-state DNA adduct Ievel; (ii) The fixation of DNA adducts in the form of mutations is accelerated by stimulation of the cell division, for Jnstance due to regenerative hyperplasia at cytotoxic dose Ievels; (iii) The rate of tumor formation results from a superposition of the rates of the individual steps. It can become exponential with dose if more than one step is accelerated by the DNA damage exerted by the genotoxic carcinogen. The strongly sigmoidal shapes often observed for dose-tumor incidence relationships in animal bioassays supports this analysis. A power of four for the dose in the su~linear part of the curve is the maximum observed (formaldehyde). In contrast to animal experiments, epidemiological data ln humans rarely show a slgnificant deviation from linearity. The discrepancy might be explained by the fact that a I arge nu mber of genes contribute to the overall sensitivity of an individual and to the respective heterogeneity within the human population. Mechanistic nonlinearities are flattened out in the presence of genetic and life-style factors which affect the sensitivity for the development of cancer. For a risk assessment, linear extrapolation from the high-dose lncidence to the spontaneaus rate can therefore be approprlate in a heterogeneous population even if the mechanism of action would result in a nonlinear shape of the dose-response curve in a homogeneaus population.},

The homo-dipeptides were much more potent than the amino acids, with relative potencies of 400:110:100:8:3:1, for Trp-Trp, l)T-'I)T, Met-Met, Asp-Asp, Phe-Phe and Gly, respectively. In the one-phase reaction system (in which NBP is already present durlog the nitrosation reaction at acidic pH), all amino acids tested showed a second-order reaction for nitrite. In the two-phase system (in which NBP is added only after bringing the nitrosation reaction mixture to neutrality), all amino acids tested except one again showed a second-order reaction for nitrite (Phe, His, Asp and the dipeptide artiticial sweetener aspartame); only Met under these conditions bad a reaction order of one for nitrite. This could mean that nitrosation of the side chain of Metproduces a second N-nitroso product which is relatively stable in acid but reacts with NBP under neutral conditions. In the human stomach, this side-chain nitrosation might become more important than the reactions at the primary amino group, firstly because of the greater stability of the product(s) in acid and secondly because of the tirst-order reaction rate for nitrite. A decrease in nitrite concentration from the millimolar concentrations ofthe in-vitro assay to the micromolar concentrations in the stomach reduces the reaction rate by a factor of 1000 for the side-chain nitrosation, whereas a million-fold reduction will be observed for nitrosation of the amino group.},

  abstract  = {The US National Research Council (NRC) report "Toxicity Testing in the 21st Century: A Vision and a strategy (Tox21)", published in 2007, calls for a complete paradigm shift in tox-icity testing. A central aspect of the proposed strategy includes the transition from apical end-points in in vivo studies to more mechanistically based in vitro tests. To support and facilitate the transition and paradigm shift in toxicity testing, the Adverse Outcome Pathway (AOP) concept is widely recognized as a pragmatic tool. As case studies, the AOP concept was ap-plied in this work to develop AOPs for proximal tubule injuries initiated by Receptor-mediated endocytosis and lysosomal overload and Inhibition of mtDNA polymerase-. These AOPs were used as a mechanistic basis for the development of in vitro assays for each key event (KE). To experimentally support the developed in vitro assays, proximal tubule cells from rat (NRK-52E) and human (RPTEC/TERT1) were treated with model compounds. To measure the dis-turbance of lysosomal function in the AOP - Receptor-mediated endocytosis and lysosomal overload, polymyxin antibiotics (polymyxin B, colistin, polymyxin B nonapeptide) were used as model compounds. Altered expression of lysosomal associated membrane protein 1/2 (LAMP-1/2) (KE1) and cathepsin D release from lysosomes (KE2) were determined by im-munofluorescence, while cytotoxicity (KE3) was measured using the CellTiter-Glo® cell via-bility assay. Importantly, significant differences in polymyxin uptake and susceptibility be-tween cell lines were observed, underlining the importance of in vitro biokinetics to determine an appropriate in vitro point of departure (PoD) for risk assessment. Compared to the in vivo situation, distinct expression of relevant transporters such as megalin and cubilin on mRNA and protein level in the used cell lines (RPTEC/TERT1 and NRK-52E) could not be con-firmed, making integration of quantitative in vitro to in vivo extrapolations (QIVIVE) neces-sary. Integration of QIVIVE by project partners of the University of Utrecht showed an im-provement in the modelled biokinetic data for polymyxin B. To assess the first key event, (KE1) Depletion of mitochondrial DNA, in the AOP - Inhibition of mtDNA polymerase-, a RT-qPCR method was used to determine the mtDNA copy number in cells treated with mod-el compounds (adefovir, cidofovir, tenofovir, adefovir dipivoxil, tenofovir disoproxil fumarate). Mitochondrial toxicity (KE2) was measured by project partners using the high-content imaging technique and MitoTracker® whereas cytotoxicity (KE3) was determined by CellTiter-Glo® cell viability assay. In contrast to the mechanistic hypothesis underlying the AOP - Inhibition of mtDNA polymerase-, treatment with model compounds for 24 h resulted in an increase rather than a decrease in mtDNA copy number (KE1). Only minor effects on mitochondrial toxicity (KE2) and cytotoxicity (KE3) were observed. Treatment of RPT-EC/TERT1 cells for 14 days showed only a slight decrease in mtDNA copy number after treatment with adefovir dipivoxil and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate, underscoring some of the limitations of short-term in vitro systems. To obtain a first estimation for risk assessment based on in vitro data, potential points of departure (PoD) for each KE were calculated from the obtained in vitro data. The most common PoDs were calculated such as the effect concentra-tion at which 10 \% or 20_\% effect was measured (EC10, EC20), the highest no observed effect concentration (NOEC), the lowest observed effect concentration (LOEC), the benchmark 10 \% (lower / upper) concentrations (BMC10, BMCL10, BMCU10) and a modelled non-toxic con-centration (NtC). These PoDs were then compared with serum and tissue concentrations de-termined from in vivo studies after treatment with therapeutic / supratherapeutic doses of the respective drugs in order to obtain a first estimate of risk based on in vitro data. In addition, AOPs were used to test whether the quantitative key event relationships between key events allow prediction of downstream effects and effects on the adverse outcome (AO) based on measurements of an early key event. Predictions of cytotoxicity from the mathematical rela-tionships showed good concordance with measured cytotoxicity after treatment with colistin and polymyxin b nonapeptide. The work also revealed uncertainties and limitations of the ap-plied strategy, which have a significant impact on the prediction and on a risk assessment based on in vitro results.},

  abstract  = {In dieser Arbeit geht es um die Phosphoglykolatphosphatase (PGP), die als Phosphatase vom Haloazid Dehalogenase-Typ (HAD-Phosphatase) zu der ubiquit{\"a}r vorkommenden Superfamilie der HAD-Hydrolasen geh{\"o}rt. In der Literatur ist eine in vitro Phosphatase-Aktivit{\"a}t gegen{\"u}ber 2-Phospho-L-Laktat (2PL), 4-Phospho-D-Erythronat (4PE), Phosphoglykolat (PG) und Glycerol-3-Phosphat (G3P) beschrieben. 2PL und 4PE entstehen in Nebenreaktionen w{\"a}hrend der Glykolyse und hemmen bei Akkumulation die Glykolyse bzw. den Pentosephosphatweg. PG kann auch in einer Nebenreaktion w{\"a}hrend der Glykolyse oder im Rahmen der Reparatur von oxidativen DNA-Sch{\"a}den entstehen. G3P entsteht aus Dihydroxyacetonphosphat und bildet das Kohlenhydratger{\"u}st der Triacylglyceride (TAG). Zellul{\"a}re Studien konnten Hinweise auf die Regulierung des epidermalen wachstumsfaktor-(EGF-)induzierten Zytoskelettumbaus durch die PGP liefern und die Untersuchung von M{\"a}usen mit PGP-Inaktivierung zeigte einen Einfluss auf die Zellproliferation und embryonale Entwicklung. Die Regulation der PGP-Expression f{\"u}hrte zu Ver{\"a}nderungen im Kohlenhydrat- und Fettstoffwechsel. Die Untersuchung der PGP-Funktionen erfolgte bislang ausschließlich mit genetischen Ans{\"a}tzen. Aufgrund von m{\"o}glichen Kompensationsmechanismen und Off-Target-Effekten m{\"u}ssen genetische und pharmakologische Methoden als sich erg{\"a}nzende Ans{\"a}tze verstanden werden. Um die Funktionen der PGP besser zu verstehen, fokussiert sich die vorliegende Arbeit auf die gezielte pharmakologische PGP-Inhibition. In Vorarbeiten wurden 41.000 Molek{\"u}le gescreent und f{\"u}nf potentielle Inhibitoren identifiziert. Ziele dieser Arbeit waren zum einen die Implementierung der Inhibitor \# 1-Behandlung in der Zellkultur, zum anderen die Charakterisierung der PGP-Hemmung durch Inhibitor \# 48 und die Durchf{\"u}hrung erster Selektivit{\"a}tstestungen mit Inhibitor \# 48. Zusammenfassend kann festgehalten werden, dass Inhibitor \# 1 in der Lage ist, die endogene PGP in Zelllysaten der murinen spermatogonialen Zelllinie (GC1) zu hemmen. Unter bestimmten Bedingungen f{\"u}hrte die Inhibitor \# 1-Behandlung der GC1-Zellen zur Hemmung der PGP. Erste Analysen zellul{\"a}rer Inhibitoreffekte konnten eine Steigerung der TAG-Konzentration in behandelten GC1-Zellen nachweisen. Die PGP-Hemmung durch Inhibitor \# 48 wurde als unkompetitive Inhibition charakterisiert und es zeigten sich keine relevanten Inhibitoreffekte auf die HAD-Phosphatasen Magnesium-abh{\"a}ngige Phosphatase 1 (MDP1), Lysin-Histidin-Pyrophosphat-Phosphatase (LHPP) und Polynukleotidase 5'-Kinase/3'-Phosphatase (PnkP). Dagegen konnte eine Aktivit{\"a}tssteigerung von Phospho 2 beobachtet werden. Die vorliegende Arbeit liefert somit erste Erkenntnisse {\"u}ber die Anwendung des PGP-Inhibitors \# 1 in der Zellkultur und schafft die Grundlage f{\"u}r nachfolgende Untersuchungen mit Inhibitor \# 48. Weitere Experimente sind notwendig, die die Inhibitorbehandlung in der Zellkultur optimieren und die Selektivit{\"a}t weiter charakterisieren, um mithilfe der Inhibitoren neue Erkenntnisse {\"u}ber die physiologische und pathophysiologische Rolle der PGP gewinnen zu k{\"o}nnen.},

  abstract  = {trans-1,1,1,3-Tetrafluoropropene (HFO-1234ze) and 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene (HFO-1234yf) are non-ozone-depleting fluorocarbon replacements with low global warming potentials and short atmospheric lifetimes. They are developed as foam blowing agent and refrigerant, respectively. Investigations on biotransformation in different test species and in vitro systems are required to assess possible health risks of human exposure and needed for commercial development. The biotransformation of HFO-1234ze and HFO-1234yf was therefore investigated after inhalation exposure. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed to air containing 2 000; 10,000; or 50,000 ppm (n=5/concentration) HFO-1234ze or HFO-1234yf. Male B6C3F1 mice were only exposed to 50,000 ppm HFO-1234ze or HFO-1234yf. Due to lethality observed in a developmental study with rabbits after exposure to high concentrations of HFO-1234yf, the metabolic fate of the compound was tested by whole body inhalation exposure of female New Zealand White rabbits to air containing 2 000; 10,000; or 50,000 ppm (n=3/concentration) HFO-1234yf. All inhalation exposures were conducted for 6 h in a dynamic exposure chamber. After the end of the exposures, animals were individually housed in metabolic cages and urines were collected at 6 or 12 h intervals for 48 h (rats and mice) or 60 h (rabbits). For metabolite identification, urine samples were analyzed by 1H-coupled and 1H-decoupled 19F-NMR and by LC/MS-MS or GC/MS. Metabolites were identified by 19F-NMR chemical shifts, signal multiplicity, 1H-19F coupling constants and by comparison with synthetic reference compounds. Biotransformation of HFO-1234ze in rats exposed to 50,000 ppm yielded S-(3,3,3-trifluoro-trans-propenyl)mercaptolactic acid as the predominant metabolite which accounted for 66\% of all integrated 19F-NMR signals in urines. No 19F-NMR signals were found in spectra of rat urine samples collected after inhalation exposure to 2 000 or 10,000 ppm HFO-1234ze likely due to insufficient sensitivity. S-(3,3,3-Trifluoro-trans-propenyl)-L-cysteine, N-acetyl-S-(3,3,3-trifluoro-trans-propenyl)-L-cysteine, 3,3,3-trifluoropropionic acid and 3,3,3-trifluorolactic acid were also present as metabolites in urine samples of rats and mice at the 50,000 ppm level. A presumed amino acid conjugate of 3,3,3-trifluoropropionic acid was the major metabolite of HFO-1234ze in urine samples of mice exposed to 50,000 ppm and related to 18\% of total integrated 19F-NMR signals. Quantitation of three metabolites in urines of rats and mice was performed, using LC/MS-MS or GC/MS. The quantified amounts of the metabolites excreted with urine in both mice and rats, suggest only a low extent (<<1\% of dose received) of biotransformation of HFO-1234ze and 95\% of all metabolites were excreted within 18 h after the end of the exposures (t1/2 approx. 6 h). Due to its low boiling point of \&\#8722;22 °C, most of the inhaled HFO-1234ze is expected to be readily exhaled. Moreover, steric and electronic factors may decrease the reactivity of the parent compound with soft nucleophiles such as glutathione. The obtained results suggest that HFO-1234ze is subjected to an addition-elimination reaction with glutathione and to a cytochrome P450-mediated epoxidation at low rates. The extent of a direct addition reaction of HFO-1234ze with glutathione is negligible, compared to that of the observed addition-elimination reaction. The results of in vivo testing of HFO-1234ze could not be supported by in vitro investigations, since HFO-1234ze was not metabolized in incubations with either liver microsomes or subcellular fractions from rat and human. Regarding the structures delineated in the biotransformation scheme of HFO-1234ze, 1,1,1,3-tetrafluoroepoxypropane and 3,3,3-trifluoropropionic acid are toxic intermediates which, however, are not supposed to display toxicity in the species after exposure to HFO-1234ze, due to the low extent of formation and an efficient detoxification of the epoxide by hydrolysis and glutathione conjugation. The findings of biotransformation of HFO-1234ze in rats and mice correlate with the absence of adverse effects in the toxicity testings and indicate their innocuousness to a human exposure. Biotransformation of HFO-1234yf yielded N-acetyl-S-(3,3,3-trifluoro-2-hydroxypropanyl)-L-cysteine as predominat metabolite which accounted for approx. 44, 90 and 32\% (50,000 ppm) of total 19F-NMR signal intensities in urine samples from rabbits, rats and mice, respectively. S-(3,3,3-Trifluoro-2-hydroxypropanyl)mercaptolactic acid and the sulfoxides of mercapturic acid and mercaptolactic acid S-conjugate were identified as minor metabolites of HFO-1234yf in urine samples from rabbits, rats and mice, whereas trifluoroacetic acid, 3,3,3-trifluorolactic acid and 3,3,3-trifluoro-1-hydroxyacetone were present as minor metabolites only in urine samples from rats and mice. The absence of these metabolites in rabbit urine samples...},

  abstract  = {Targeting the intrinsic metabolism of immune or tumor cells is a therapeutic strategy in autoimmunity, chronic inflammation or cancer. Metabolite repair enzymes may represent an alternative target class for selective metabolic inhibition, but pharmacological tools to test this concept are needed. Here, we demonstrate that phosphoglycolate phosphatase (PGP), a prototypical metabolite repair enzyme in glycolysis, is a pharmacologically actionable target. Using a combination of small molecule screening, protein crystallography, molecular dynamics simulations and NMR metabolomics, we discover and analyze a compound (CP1) that inhibits PGP with high selectivity and submicromolar potency. CP1 locks the phosphatase in a catalytically inactive conformation, dampens glycolytic flux, and phenocopies effects of cellular PGP-deficiency. This study provides key insights into effective and precise PGP targeting, at the same time validating an allosteric approach to control glycolysis that could advance discoveries of innovative therapeutic candidates.},

  abstract  = {Ausgangspunkt der Arbeit ist die klinische Beobachtung, dass Patienten mit arteriellem Hypertonus vermehrt Nierenerkrankungen entwickeln. Dabei zeigten sich in der Subgruppenanalyse vor allem erh{\"o}hte Inzidenzen der Niereninsuffizienz und der Nierenzellkarzinome. Als m{\"o}glicher Pathomechanismus steht das Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosteron-System (RAAS-System) im Vordergrund. Dabei wird postuliert, dass erh{\"o}hte Angiotensin II-Spiegel zu einem Missverh{\"a}ltnis zwischen den Oxidations- und Reduktionspartnern in der Zelle f{\"u}hren, wodurch sich das oxidative Potential der Zelle {\"a}ndert, und es vermehrt zur Bildung von Radikalen (ROS) kommt, die meist ungepaarte Elektronen in der Valenzschale oder instabile Verbindungen enthalten, wodurch sie besonders reaktionsfreudig mit Proteinen, Lipiden, Kohlenhydraten und auch der DNA interagieren. In der Folge kommt es zu DNA-Ver{\"a}nderungen in Form von Doppel- oder Einzelstrangbr{\"u}chen, DNA-Protein-Crosslinks, Basenmodifikationen und Basenverlusten, wodurch sich ein hohes mutagenes Potential ergibt. Dieser Ansatz zur Pathophysiologie best{\"a}tigte sich auch an den hier verwendeten porkinen Nierenzellmodell. Dabei zeigte sich nicht nur eine Ver{\"a}nderung der genomischen Stabilit{\"a}t nach Exposition gegen{\"u}ber erh{\"o}hten Angiotensin II-Spiegeln, sondern auch eine Ver{\"a}nderung der DNA in Abh{\"a}ngigkeit von der Expositionsdauer der Zellen. Als n{\"a}chster Schritt konnte die Modulation der Transkriptionsfaktoren Nrf 2 und NF-κB durch die Behandlung mit Angiotensin II und Sulforaphan nachgewiesen werden. Bei der Behandlung mit Sulforaphan ließ sich eine Nrf 2-Induktion nachweisen mit vermehrter Expression von antioxidativen und detoxifizierender Enzyme. Weiterhin zeigte sich im Rahmen der Behandlung erniedrigte NF-κB-Level. Bei der Modulation durch Angiotensin II stellte sich zun{\"a}chst ein signifikant erniedrigtes Level an Nrf 2 in den Zellen dar, das im Verlauf von 24 Stunden anstieg und konsekutiv ließ sich eine maximale Proteinexpression zwischen 24 und 48 Stunden messen. Weiterhin wiesen die Zellen, die mit Angiotensin II behandelt wurden, erh{\"o}hte NF-κB Mengen/Zelle auf. Zudem zeigte sich der Einfluss erh{\"o}hter Glucosekonzentrationen auf eine progrediente genomischen Instabilit{\"a}t, die Ver{\"a}nderung der Transkriptionsfaktoren mit erh{\"o}hter Nrf 2-Induktion und mit Deregulation des Transkriptionsfaktors NF-κB wurde durch die Behandlung mit Sulforaphan nachgewiesen. Aufgrund dieser Rolle in der Tumorgenese sind mittlerweile einige Bestandteile des NF-κB- und des Nrf 2-Signalweges und auch Nrf 2-Aktivatoren wie Sulforaphan wichtige Zielstrukturen f{\"u}r die Entwicklung neuer Medikamente und Therapieoptionen. Besonders zeigt sich hierbei die Wichtigkeit bei Diabetes induzierten kardiovaskul{\"a}ren Folgesch{\"a}den mit fr{\"u}hzeitiger medikament{\"o}ser Behandlung.},
