| Abstract | Risk assessment of man-made chemicals such as pesticides are mainly focused on parent compounds, and relatively little is known about their metabolites, especially with regard to target organ damages such as immunotoxicity. In the present study, the immunotoxicity of five synthetic pyrethroids (SPs) and three common metabolites was evaluated using an in vitro model by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay, cytoflow, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Cell viability and apoptosis assays showed that both SPs and their metabolites possessed cytotoxicity to the monocytic cells. The aldehyde and acid derivatives were more effective than the other compounds at cytotoxicity, with inhibition of cell viability by 56.8 and 50.6% at 10â»5 mol L⻹, and induction of 8.52 and 8.81% cell apoptosis, respectively. Exposure to SPs and their metabolites also led to changes in the secretion levels of tumor necrosis factor (TNF ) and interleukins (ILs), and again the metabolites showed stronger effects than the parent compounds. The aldehyde derivative upregulated IL-12p70 level by 1.87-fold, and the alcohol and acid derivative increased the secretion of TNF 5.88 and 7.96-fold, relative to the control group. In the in vitro model, the common metabolites of SPs clearly exerted greater immunotoxic effects to monocytes than the intact parent compounds. Results from the present study suggested the need for considering metabolites in achieving more comprehensive health risk assessment of man-made chemicals, including target organ toxicities such as immunotoxicity. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
