Sertoli cells play a pivotal role in the complex spermatogenesis process. This study aimed to investigate the effects of PM(2.5)on Sertoli cells using the TM4 cell line and a real time whole-body PM2.5 exposure mouse model, and further explore the underlying mechanisms through the application of metabolomics and transcriptomics. The results in vivo and in vitro showed that PM2.5 reduced Sertoli cells number in seminiferous tubules and inhibited cell proliferation. PM2.5 exposure also induced Sertoli cell dysfunction by increasing androgen binding protein (ABP) concentration, reducing the blood-testis barrier (BTB)-related protein expression, and decreasing glycolysis capacity and lactate production. The results of transcriptomics, metabolomics, and integrative analysis of multi-omics in the TM4 Sertoli cells revealed the activation of xenobiotic metabolism, and the disturbance of glutathione and purine metabolism after PM2.5 exposure. Further tests verified the reduced GSH/GSSG ratio and the elevation of xanthine oxidase (XO) activity in the PM2.5-exposed TM4 cells, indicating that excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) was generated via metabolic disorder caused by PM2.5. Moreover, the redox imbalance was proved by the increase in the mitochondrial ROS level, superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) activity, as well as the activation of the Nrf2 antioxidative pathway. Further study found that the redox imbalance caused by PM2.5 induced DNA damage response and cell cycle arrest. Additionally, PM2.5 induced ferroptosis through iron overload and lipid peroxidation. Taken all together, our study provided new insights for understanding proliferation inhibition and dysfunction of TM4 Sertoli cells exposed to PM2.5 via metabolic disorder and redox imbalance-mediated DNA damage response and ferroptosis.
