Chemical compound and disease context of tributyltin

 

Biological context of tributyltin

  • The immunotoxic environmental pollutant tri-n-butyltin (TBT) kills thymocytes by apoptosis through a mechanism that requires an increase in intracellular Ca2+ concentration [13].
  • Tri-n-propyltin and tri-n-butyltin were also potent inhibitors of taurine transport (IC50 = 2.3 and 11 microM, respectively), but trimethyltin was much less potent (144 microM) [14].
  • The effects of tri-n-butyltin chloride (TBT) on ionic homeostasis on isolated trout hepatocytes were investigated by flow cytometry (FCM), using the Ca(2+)-sensitive and pH-sensitive fluorescent probes Indo-1 and SNARF-1, respectively [15].
  • A significant positive correlation (p < 0.05) was observed between lysosomal destabilization and body burden of organic compounds (PAHs, PCBs, TBT, and chlorinated pesticides) [16].
  • The vertical distribution patterns of the transformation products of tri-n-butyltin (TBT) in sediment cores collected from 6 sites in Ise Bay, Japan indicated that TBT was transformed by two pathways: methylation and debutylation [17].
 

Anatomical context of tributyltin

 

Associations of tributyltin with other chemical compounds

  • Pretreatment with A23187 greatly decreased the fluorescence responses induced by 1 microM tri-n-butyltin [18].
  • TBT acts as an endocrine disrupter in animals, inducing masculinization (imposex) in female gastropods of different species by increasing testosterone levels [22].
  • The reactions with DNA of two antitumor active organotin(IV) compounds, the dimer of bis[(di-n-butyl 3,6-dioxaheptanoato)tin] (C(52)H(108)Sn(4)O(1) x 2H(2)O), compound 1, and tri-n-butyltin 3,6,9-trioxodecanoate (C(19)H(40)SnO(5) x 1/2H(2)O), compound 2, were analysed by circular dichroism, DNA melting experiments and gel mobility shift assays [23].
  • The specific chemical exposures investigated were CCA (chromated copper-arsenate), TBTO (tributyl tin oxide) and PCP (pentachlorophenol) [24].
  • Two-stage transformation assays, with 3-methylcholanthrene as inducer and tri-n-butyltin chloride as promoter, were performed to determine if promotion of morphological transformation and proliferin induction were properties shared by this compound [25].
