Abstract [en]
Our capability to predict the impact of exposure to chemical mixtures on environmental and human health is limited in comparison to the advances on the chemical characterization of the exposome. Current approaches, such as new approach methodologies, rely on the characterization of the chemicals and the available toxicological knowledge of individual compounds. In this study, we show a new methodological approach for the assessment of chemical mixtures based on a proteome-wide identification of the protein targets and revealing the relevance of new targets based on their role in the cellular function. We applied a proteome integral solubility alteration assay to identify 24 protein targets from a chemical mixture of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin, alpha-endosulfan, and bisphenol A among the HepG2 soluble proteome, and validated the chemical mixture-target interaction orthogonally. To define the range of interactive capability of the new targets, the data from intrinsic properties of the targets were retrieved. Introducing the target properties as criteria for a multi-criteria decision-making analysis called the analytical hierarchy process, the prioritization of targets was based on their involvement in multiple pathways. This methodological approach that we present here opens a more realistic and achievable scenario to address the impact of complex and uncharacterized chemical mixtures in biological systems. © 2024
