Insecticide
Insecticide
Insecticides refer to any toxic substances used to kill insects, which exert toxic effects on pests through different mechanisms, thereby achieving the purpose of controlling pest populations and protecting crops and human health. Insecticides have both chemical and biological origins and can be classified into organochlorine insecticides, organophosphorus insecticides, carbamate insecticides, and mineral insecticides based on their chemical properties. Insecticides interact with different target and non-target sites, including receptors, enzymes, and many other known and unknown molecules. Most insecticides are neurotoxicants that target the nervous system, but they can also affect other organs and body systems. Insecticides are metabolized through different metabolic pathways and often serve as biomarkers of exposure in the form of their parent compounds or metabolites. The toxicity of insecticides can be acute, subacute, or chronic, depending on the duration of exposure and the dose involved. Therefore, selecting sensitive, accurate, and validated biomarkers of exposure, effects, and susceptibility appears to be a challenging task.
Insecticides are widely used in agriculture, horticulture, forestry, gardening, homes, offices, and other fields[1][2].

1,4-Dichlorobenzene
0 Images1,4-Dichlorobenzene is a non-genotoxic, orally active mitogenic/tumor-promoting carcinogen that is also widely used as a dye, resin intermediate, and deodorant, moth repellent/insecticide. 1,4-Dichlorobenzene induces liver tumors in mice and promotes the growth of spontaneous precancerous lesions, but shows no liver tumor-inducing activity in F344 rats. Exposure to 1,4-dichlorobenzene leads to elevated leukocyte counts, serum alanine aminotransferase, and blood urea nitrogen levels. Due to the hepatotoxic characteristics, 1,4-Dichlorobenzene is applicable to liver cancer-related research.

Tralopyril
0 ImagesTralopyril is an orally active, blood-brain barrier-penetrating antifouling insecticide and endocrine disruptor. By interfering with the thyroid hormone system and mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, Tralopyril downregulates the transcription of genes such as TRHR, Nkx2.1, TRα and induces ferroptosis. Tralopyril disrupts amino acid, energy and lipid metabolism, exhibits significant skeletal and reproductive toxicity, and causes developmental damage. Tralopyril has a long half-life in vivo and wide tissue distribution, posing potential risks to aquatic organisms and human health. Tralopyril shows species specificity in in vitro liver microsomal metabolism, exerts lethal effects on target insects and laboratory animals, and is commonly used in studies of chlorfenapyr poisoning and related toxic mechanisms.
