Gap junctions and cellular continuum (Gap Junctional Intercellular Communication - GJIC)

Inhibition of GJIC - mechanism of tumor promotion from Trosko and Ruch 1998, Frontiers in Bioscience 3:d208 gap-junctional intercellular communication (GJIC) - transfer of small signalling molecules via protein channels (gap junctions) regulation of proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis inhibition of GJIC -> proliferation ~ tumor promotion relevance: tumors in vivo have inhibited gap- junctions Control cells Inhibition of GJIC

GJIC AhR ER Oxidative Stress

PAHs as tumor promoters - inhibition of GJIC - Bláha et al Toxicol Sci 65: 43 - Several PAHs inhibits GJIC within 30 min exposure (IC 50 ~  M) - Low MW and bay/bay-like regions promotes the effect -Fluoranthene :non-mutagenic :non-AhR-inducing :tumor promoter in vivo (!)

Toxicity to membrane gradients and transport - Semipermeability of membranes: several key functions - cytoplasmic membrane: signalling, neural cells Na+/K+ gradient - mitochondrial membrane: electrone flow -> ATP synthesis - endoplasmatic reticulum Ca 2+ signalling - Membrane fusion / transport neurotransmitter release

Membrane gradient disruption Ion transfer ("ionofors") antibiotics (K+, Ca2+, Mg2+)

Ion Channel BLOCKERS / ACTIVATORS Neuromodulators (drugs) Neurotoxins (cyanobacterial)

Botulinum and Tetanus toxins (Clostridium botulinum, Clostridium tetani) Toxins = enzymes - proteases (!) - cleavage of proteins involved in vesicle formation - selective inhibition of neutrotransmitter release neurotoxicity

Cytoskeleton as target of toxicants microtubules / actin-myosin

Cytoskeleton – function - intracellular transport - cell replication and division (mitosis:chromosomes) - muscle movement - membrane (vesicles) fusion

TOXINS: effects on (DE)POLYMERIZATION cytochalasin D (fungal toxin) Phalloidin (death cap - Amanita phalloides)
