ABSTRACT
Decabromodiphenyl ether (BDE209) has been demonstrated to be associated with thyroid dysfunction and thyroid carcinoma risk as a widely used brominated flame retardants. Although dabrafenib has been confirmed to be a promising therapeutic agent for papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) harboring BRAFV600E mutation, the rapid acquired dabrafenib resistance has brought a great challenge to clinical improvement and the underpinning mechanisms remain poorly defined. By treating PTC-derived and normal follicular epithelial cell lines with BDE209, we assessed its impact on the MAPK pathway's activation and evaluated the resultant effects on cell viability and signaling pathways, utilizing methods such as Western blot, IF staining, and RNA-seq bioinformatic analysis. Our findings reveal that BDE209 exacerbates MAPK activation, undermining dabrafenib's inhibitory effects by triggering the EGFR pathway, thereby highlighting BDE209's potential to diminish the pharmacological efficacy of dabrafenib in treating BRAF-mutated PTC. This research underscores the importance of considering environmental factors like BDE209 exposure in the effective management of thyroid carcinoma treatment strategies.
