有机酸 (OPEs) 与甲状腺眼病 (TED) 有关. 在TED患者中发现了更高的OPE水平,而aryl OPEs显示强烈的与甲状腺刺激激素受体 (TSHR) 结合.
科学领域:
- 环境健康 环境健康
- 内分泌学 在内分泌学.
- 毒理学 毒理学 毒理学
背景情况:
- 有机酸 (OPE) 在消费品和建筑材料中普遍存在.
- 一些OPE作为甲状腺刺激激素受体 (TSHR) 的激动剂,可能导致甲状腺眼病 (TED).
研究的目的:
- 调查OPE暴露和TED之间的关联.
- 使用计算方法探索OPEs影响TSHR活动的分子机制.
主要方法:
- 从TED患者和对照组的血清和尿液中分析OPE度.
- 机器学习和分子对接的应用,以评估OPE-TSHR结合亲和力.
- 基于化学结构的OPE-TSHR相互作用的预测模型的开发.
主要成果:
- 与对照人群相比,TED患者的OPE和di-OPE血清和尿液度显著更高 (p <0.05).
- 阿里尔OPE显示出与TSHR的结合亲和力最高.
- 一个预测模型表明,1011个OPE中的28%倾向于与TSHR结合,其中关键的子结构被确定为高亲和力.
结论:
- OPE暴露与TED有关,可能是通过TSHR激进.
- 了解OPE结构-活性关系为设计更安全的化学品和减轻甲状腺损伤提供了洞察力.
