Oxidative Stress Mechanisms of Hydroxyurea-Induced Developmetal Toxicity in Organogenesis Stage Mouse Embryos

ABSTRACT: To investigate the gene expression changes in gestational day 9 embryos exposed to hydroxyurea in utero. Agilent microarray technology was used to identify genes that responded to hydroxyurea exposure. Understanding the stress response of the embryo will help us advance education of birth defect prevention. Gestational day 9 embryos were exposed to 400 mg/kg hydroxyurea, a dose that induces a moderate number of malformations, including fetal resorptions, growth retardation, external and skeletal defects. We identified several genes involved in responding to oxidative stress, including NRF-2, PRDX1, and TXNIP. Other genes also significantly changed were involved in cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. The dysregulation in gene expression during organogenesis contributes to the developmental toxicity of hydroxyurea. Gestational day 9 mouse embryos were treated with saline or 400 mg/kg hydroxyurea by intraperitoneal injection. Dams were euthanized after 3 hours and embryos explanted. 6 indendent experiments were performed for each sample.

Identification of Rat foreskin biomarkers of in utero dibutyl phthalate exposure [Affymetrix]

Project description:Dibutyl phthalate was administered to pregnant Sprague Dawley rats from gestational days 16-20 at either a 100 mg/kg/day or 500 mg/kg/day dose level. This timeframe covers the reproductive masculinization window which corresponds to increased androgen signalling. Dibutyl phthalate has been shown to disrupt testosterone production leading to male reproductive abnormalities. As such, we selected this exposure window for our study and examined gene expression changes in the male rat foreskin, which expresses the androgen receptor. We collected tissue samples at both gestational day 20 to identify gene expression changes immediately after exposure, and postnatal day 5 to identify gene expression changes persisting after birth using microarray analysis (Illumina RatRef 12 Bead Chips). To determine whether gene expression changes were brought on by decreased androgen signalling or additional effects of dibutyl phthalate exposure, we exposed rats to the potent androgen receptor antagonist flutamide (5 mg/kg/day) during the same period of development. Gene expression changes were compared to determine which were brought on by disruption of androgen signalling and which were the result of other aspects of chemical exposure.

The p53 Signaling Pathway is Activated in Response to Hydroxyurea Embryotoxicity During Organogenesis

Project description:Hydroxyurea (HU), an anticancer agent and potent teratogen, is used as a model drug to study the embryonic stress response during organogenesis. Previously, we demonstrated that HU activates a DNA damage response (DDR) pathway in the gestation day (GD) 9 mouse embryo (Toxicol Sci. 2013 133(2):298-308). The p53 tumor suppressor gene is a possible downstream effector of this pathway. P53 plays an important role in embryonic development, however its response to teratogens is debatable. We hypothesize that HU exposure at the organogenesis stage activates p53 which then mediates cell cycle arrest and cell death that result in the observed malformations. To test this hypothesis, CD-1 embryos at GD9 were exposed in vivo to saline (Control-CO) or two doses of HU (HU400= 400 mg/kg; HU600= 600 mg/kg); embryos were extracted after 3 hours and samples prepared to examine gene and protein expression. Microarray analysis of embryos in the HU400 group showed that the expression of 1346 genes significantly changed compared to control and that they were significantly associated with the p53 signaling pathway. The active form of p53 (phospho-p53) was significantly upregulated in HU-exposed embryos; Western blot and confocal microscopy showed increasing protein concentrations and nuclear translocation in major embryonic tissues. qRT-PCR showed that p53-regulated genes (Cdkn1A, Fas, p53inp1) were significantly upregulated and p53inp1 protein increased in a dose-dependent fashion with HU. Together, these data show that p53 signaling is the main pathway activated in response to HU during organogenesis, and leads to the upregulation of cell cycle arrest and cell death promoting factors.

Transcription profiling of liver samples from Macaca fascicularis treated with varying doses of ciprofibrate for 4 or 15 days

Project description:Liver gene expression was examined in male cynomolgus monkeys treated with ciprofibrate (PPAR-alpha agonist) for 4 days at 400 mg/kg/day and treated for 15 days at 0, 3, 30, 150 or 400 mg/kg/day. The untreated control group were given only the vehicle (0.5% hydroxypropyl methylcellulose). Two animals per group were used for the 4 day treatment and four animals per group were used for the 15 day treatment (except the 15 day control group, which had three animals). Selection of significantly changed probesets was done using Rosetta Resolver and the fold-change and p values as determined by Resolver are given below. Affymetrix CEL files and MAS5-processed data have been made availabe for convenience. Note that data processing reported in the Toxicological Sciences manuscript was done using Rosetta Resolver and the treated versus control group fold-change and p-value are appended to the Series entry. An article has been published in Toxicological Sciences regarding this dataset; the data interpretation was based on the Rosetta Resolver data. Experiment Overall Design: Groups consisted of (i) vehicle only for 4 days, (ii) 400 mg/kg/day ciprofibrate for 4 days, (iii) vehicle only for 15 days and (iv) 3, 30, 150, or 400 mg/kg/day ciprofibrate for 15 days.

RNA-seq of estrogen (E2) induced changes of mRNA expression in Sus scrofa male and female blastocysts derived from embryonic day 10

Project description:Environmental estrogens may affect epigenetic programming as early as the period of preimplantation development. Therefore, we analyzed the effects of continuous gestational estradiol-17β (E2) exposure on male and female embryos. A low dose, close to the no-observed effect level (NOEL - 10 µg E2/kg body weight(bw)/d), a high dose (1000 µg E2/kg bw/d) and carrier only, as control group, was fed to sows from insemination until sampling at day 10 of pregnancy, respectively. 36 samples (n = 5-7 per treatment group and sex) were analyzed by high throughput sequencing.In the high dose group, RNA-sequencing of single embryos revealed 982 differentially expressed genes (DEG) in the female but none in the male blastocysts. Moreover, 62 and 3 DEG were found in female and male embryos of the NOEL dose group, respectively. Thus, maternal E2 treatment during early pregnancy affected gene expression of the embryos at day 10, potentially constituting the basis for long-term adverse effects.

Prenatal exposure to bisphenol A, genistein and indole-3-carbinol on early mammary gland development and carcinogenesis in female Sprague-Dawley offspring

Project description:Rodent studies have indicated that gestational and perinatal bisphenol A (BPA) exposure increase the risk of developing breast cancer during adulthood. In contrast, some dietary compounds such as genistein (GEN) and indole 3-carbinol (I3C) present potential protective effects against inducing hormone-dependent cancers, including that of the mammary gland. Thus, we aimed to evaluate the role of these dietary compounds on early mammary gland development and carcinogenesis in female Sprague-Dawley offspring. Pregnant Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were treated with BPA at 25 or 250µg/kg b.w./day by gavage from gestational day (GD) 10 to 21 with or without dietary GEN (250 mg/kg chow, ~5.5 mg/kg b.w./day) or I3C (2000 mg/kg chow, ~45.0 mg/kg b.w./day). At post-natal day (PND) 21, some female offspring from different litters were euthanized for mammary gland development and gene expression analyses while other female offspring received a single dose of N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU) for mammary carcinogenesis initiation. The findings this study indicated the prenatal exposure to BPA, GEN and I3C did not significantly alter ductal elongation, number of terminal end buds (TEB) or cell proliferation, and estrogen receptor alpha (ER-α) immunostaining expression in epithelial mammary cells at PND 21. BPA treatment modulated the expression of several genes, but these changes were not associated with a dose dependent response. Dietary GEN and I3C treatment causally and consistent with the mammary gland structures outcomes. Besides, maternal BPA exposure associated with dietary GEN and I3C did not alter the susceptibility to the mammary cancer development in adulthood when the carcinogen was administered in a window of immature mammary gland development.
