Gestational Exposure to Bisphenol A and Bisphenol S Leads to Fetal Skeletal Muscle Hypertrophy Independent of Sex.

ABSTRACT: Gestational exposure to bisphenol A (BPA) can lead to offspring insulin resistance. However, despite the role that the skeletal muscle plays in glucose homeostasis, it remains unknown whether gestational exposure to BPA, or its analog bisphenol S (BPS), impairs skeletal muscle development. We hypothesized that gestational exposure to BPA or BPS will impair fetal muscle development and lead to muscle-specific insulin resistance. To test this, pregnant sheep (n?=?7-8/group) were exposed to BPA or BPS from gestational day (GD) 30 to 100. At GD120, fetal skeletal muscle was harvested to evaluate fiber size, fiber type, and gene and protein expression related to myogenesis, fiber size, fiber type, and inflammation. Fetal primary myoblasts were isolated to evaluate proliferation and differentiation. In fetal skeletal muscle, myofibers were larger in BPA and BPS groups in both females and males. BPA females had higher MYH1 (reflective of type-IIX fast glycolytic fibers), whereas BPS females had higher MYH2 and MYH7, and higher myogenic regulatory factors (Myf5, MyoG, MyoD, and MRF4) mRNA expression. No differences were observed in males. Myoblast proliferation was not altered in gestationally BPA- or BPS-exposed myoblasts, but upon differentiation, area and diameter of myotubes were larger independent of sex. Females had larger myofibers and myotubes than males in all treatment groups. In conclusion, gestational exposure to BPA or BPS does not result in insulin resistance in fetal myoblasts but leads to fetal fiber hypertrophy in skeletal muscle independent of sex and alters fiber type distribution in a sex-specific manner.

Project description:BackgroundLongissimus muscle samples were collected from lambs exposed in utero to mycotoxins [E-, endophyte-free tall fescue seed without ergot alkaloids (negative control) or E + , endophyte-infected tall fescue seed containing ergot alkaloids] during mid-gestation (MID; E + /E-) or late-gestation (LATE; E-/E +) harvested at two developmental stages (FETAL, gestational d133) or (MAT, near maturity, 250 d of age; n = 3/treatment/developmental stage). Muscle samples were examined to determine the impact of in utero mycotoxin exposure on skeletal muscle fiber hypertrophy and the miRNA profile at FETAL and MAT.ResultsLongissimus weight was greater (P < 0.05) in E + /E- lambs compared to E-/E + lambs at MAT; however, FETAL longissimus weight did not differ (P > 0.10) between fescue treatments. Type I fiber cross sectional area was larger (P < 0.10) for E + /E- than E-/E + at MAT but did not differ (P > 0.10) between fescue treatments at FETAL. Type II fiber area was larger (P < 0.05) at MAT in E + /E- compared to E-/E + but did not differ (P < 0.05) between fescue treatments at FETAL. Cross-sectional Type I and Type II longissimus muscle fiber area increased (P < 0.05) from FETAL to MAT by 6.86-fold and 10.83-fold, respectively. The ratio of Type II:Type I muscle fibers was lower (P = 0.04) at MAT compared to FETAL. There were 120 miRNA differentially expressed (q < 0.05) between FETAL and MAT. Maternal fescue treatment did not alter (q > 0.05) expression of miRNAs in the longissimus muscle. miR-133, -29a, -22-3p, and -410-3p were identified as highly significant with a log2 fold change > 4. In vitro satellite cell cultures showed that selected miRNAs (miR-22-3p, 29a, 27a, and 133a) are differentially regulated during proliferation and differentiation indicating a role of miRNA in muscle hypertrophy.ConclusionsExposure to mycotoxins did not alter fiber type but had long-term impacts on postnatal muscle hypertrophy and cross-sectional area. The miRNA profile of the longissimus was not altered by Maternal mycotoxin exposure at FETAL or MAT. Developmental age altered the miRNA transcriptome and mRNA expression of known genes related to muscle growth. These results indicate that Maternal exposure to E + fescue seed during LATE gestation can alter postnatal muscle hypertrophy in sheep; however, these changes are not regulated by the miRNA transcriptome of the longissimus muscle.

Project description:Compairsion of transcriptional profiles of heart and skeletal muscle tissue of fetal rhesus monkey exposed to maternal Bisphenol A or vehicle during early or late gestaion. Maternal exposure to the endocrine disrupting chemical, bisphenol A (BPA) affects the development of multiple organ systems in rodents and monkeys. However, effects of BPA exposure on cardiac and skeletal muscle development have not been assessed. Given that maternal BPA crosses placenta and reaches developing fetus, examining the physiological consequences of gestational exposure during development is of research significance. Therefore, we evaluate the effects of daily, oral BPA exposure of pregnant rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta) on the fetal heart and skeletal muscle transcriptome. Pregnant monkeys were administered daily oral doses (400 M-BM-5g/kg body weight) of BPA during early (50 M-bM-^@M-^S100 M-BM-1 2 days post conception, dpc) or late (100 M-BM-1 2 dpc - term), gestation. At the end of treatment, fetal heart tissues; left ventricle (LV), right ventricle (RV), left atrium (LA), right atrium (RA) and skeletal muscle; biceps femoris (BFM), were collected. Transcriptome expression was assessed using genome-wide microarray in each of the tissues and compared paired-wise between the BPA and matched control fetuses. Our results show that maternal BPA exposure alters transcriptional profile of several coding and non-coding genes in fetal heart and skeletal muscle. Pregnant rhesus monkey were administered a daily oral dose of 400 M-NM-<g/kg. body weight of Bisphenol A (BPA) or vehicle (CON) either during early (50M-bM-^@M-^S100 M-BM-1 2 days) or late (100 M-BM-1 2 daysM-bM-^@M-^Sterm) gestation. Gene expression profiles of each of the heart chambers (left ventricle, LV; right ventricle, RV; left atrium, LA; and right atrium, RA) and skeletal muscle (biceps femoris, BFM) were analyzed using microarrays and compared between the BPA exposed and matched control fetuses. A total of 12 samples were analyzed for each tissue; LV, RV, LA, RA and BFM. This includes 6 samples at each time period (early vs. late gestation) and 3 biological replicates for each treatment (BPA, n=3; control, n=3).
