Description

Chlorpyrifos is a neurotoxic insecticide that belongs to the class of thionite esters. Chlorpyrifos is also a AChE inhibitor that affects neurological function in insects, humans and other animals. Chlorpyrifos interferes with cell replication and differentiation, ultimately altering synaptic transmission in neurons[1][2][3][4].

IC50 & Target

AChE

 

In Vitro

Chlorpyrifos mediates desulfuration to produce chlorpyrifos oxon (CPO), which has higher affinity toward the active site of serine-dependent ester hydrolases such as AChE[2].
Chlorpyrifos (3.9-250 μM; 24-72 h) is toxic to oligodendrocyte progenitors[3].
Chlorpyrifos toxicity is associated with (7.5-480 μM; 18 h) nuclear condensation and elevation of caspase 3/7 activity, (60 μM; 2, 4 h) Heme oxygenase-1 mRNA expression in Central Glia (CG-4) cells, and (30, 60, 120 μM; 24 h) enhances H2DCF-DA intensity[3].

Cell Viability Assay[3]

Cell Line: Oligodendrocyte CG-4 cells
Concentration: 3.9, 7.8, 15.6, 31.25, 62.5, 125, and 250 μM
Incubation Time: 24, 48, and 72 hours
Result: Significantly inhibited cell viability over 62.5 μM.

Immunofluorescence[3]

Cell Line: Oligodendrocyte CG-4 cells
Concentration: 0, 30, 60, 120 μM
Incubation Time: 24 hours
Result: Resulted nuclear condensation and elevation in a dose-dependent manner.
In Vivo

Chlorpyrifos (97-276 mg/kg; p.o.; single dose) has moderately acute oral toxicity, with lethal dose, 50% (LD50) of 97-276 mg/kg in rats[2].
Chlorpyrifos (1 mg/kg and 5 mg/kg for 1 mL/kg; s.c.; once daily for 3 d) has adverse effect on learning and memory abilities of rats, and affects pregnant rats on gestational days 9-12, results offspring behavioral abnormalities[4].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
