Abstract: The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a structural and functional interface between the plasma and the human brain. Predictive BBB in-vitro models like immortalized human capillary microvascular endothelial cells (HCMEC/D3) can be used to explore the BBB disruption potential of daily exposed chemicals. The present study was focused on investigating the human BBB permeation potential of one organophosphate pesticide, chlorpyrifos (CPF), and two pyrethroids, permethrin (PMT) and cyfluthrin (CFT). HCMEC/D3 cells were exposed to the chemical and the time-dependent pass across BBB along with permeation coefficient (Papp) was calculated. Transendothelial electrical resistance (TEER) was measured for the cells to check the monolayer formation and later to check the reduction in integrity after chemical exposure. Real time PCR was conducted to investigate the effect of chemicals on the expression BBB´s tight and adherens junction proteins. Calculated Papp value for three chemicals was in the following order: CPF>CFT>PMT, where CPF showed the highest permeation coefficient. TEER calculation showed that the integrity decreased after CPF exposure which was in concordance with Papp value whereas for other chemicals, no change in TEER after exposure was observed. In addition, the transwell study showed a higher efflux ratio (ER) (>2) of CFT indicating that CFT could be a substrate for active transport. For CPF and PMT, ER was less than 2, so no active transport seems to be involved. The evaluation of the mRNA expression analysis revealed a statistically significant decrease in Occludin (OCLN) gene expression for CPF, VE-Cadherin (CDH5) for PMT and Zonula Occludens (ZO1) expression for CFT. Our study showed that CPF has the highest potential for inducing cell death, higher permeation, and capability to induce BBB dysfunction than among the above-mentioned chemicals. Additionally, the results of the permeation study could be useful to build a human PBPK model using in vitro-to-in vivo extrapolation approach.
