Project description:This series compares the effects that two pharmacologically distinct ligands at the mitochondrial peripheral-type benzodiazepine receptor (Bzrp). PK11195 (4.0 mg/kg, a presumed antagonist) has no observable adverse effects in pregnant mice on either 8 days post-coitus (d.p.c.) or 9 d.p.c. Furthermore, PK11195 is shown to rescue mouse fetuses from microphthalmia or microphthalmia-microcephaly induced with 2CdA or MeHg, respectively; effects of PK11195 on EtOH-induced craniofacial malformations are not yet unkown. Ro5-4864 (4.0 mg/kg, a presumed agonist) is weakly teratogenic on 8 d.p.c. (effects on 9 d.p.c. unknown) and this Bzrp ligand does not rescue fetuses from malformations induced with either 2CdA or MeHg; effects of Ro5-4864 on EtOH-induced craniofacial malformations is unknown for either sensitive (C57BL/6J) or insensitive (C57BL/6N) strains. The 4.0 mg/kg dose of Bzrp ligands is consistent with pharmacological activity in several studies. Pregnant mice were exposed to these agents on 8 d.p.c. (2CdA, EtOH) or 9 d.p.c. (MeHg). The test dose of 2.5 mg/kg 2CdA was modeled for a 5% increased risk of microphthalmia in term fetuses. Full remediation with PK11195 anticipated. The test dose of 5.0 mg/kg MeHg gives an estimated 20% increased risk of microphthalmia-microcephaly (encephalopathy) in term fetuses. Partial remediation with PK11195 is anticipated to <10% malformations. Again the effects of PK11195 on EtOH teratogenicity is not yet known. The sampling time was chosen as the time of p53 protein induction (3.0h to 4.5h post-treatment). Whereas co-treatment with PK11195 suppresses embryonic p53 protein induction Ro5-4864 does not block this reaction. All measurements were on RNA from the embryonic headfold (8 d.p.c.) or prosencephalon (9 d.p.c.).

Project description:In this dose series pregnant CD-1 (outbred) dams were exposed to methylmercury (MeHg) as monomethylmercuric chloride injected intraperitoneally on 9 d.p.c. Test doses were 10.0 mg/kg and below. This regimen induces symptoms of Fetal Minimata Disease (FMD) in term fetuses. Risks with respect to FMD for the various test doses were 10.0 mg/kg (40% risk), 5.0 mg/kg (20% risk), 2.5 mg/kg (NOAEL), and 1.25 mg/kg (subNOAEL). All measurements were on RNA from the embryonic forebrain (prosencephalon and surrounding tissue) at 3.0h post-treatment.

Project description:In this time course pregnant CD-1 (outbred) dams were exposed to MeHg as monomethylmercuric chloride intraperitoneally on 9 d.p.c. The test dose of 5.0 mg/kg MeHg was selected as a dose with an estimated 20% increased risk for encephalopathy in term fetuses, with no evidence of maternal toxicosis. Sampling intervals ranged from 1.5h to 24.0h post-exposure. All measurements were on RNA from the embryonic forebrain (prosencephalon) using contemporous control embryos as a reference.

Project description:In this time course pregnant CD-1 (outbred) dams were exposed to the 2-chloro analogue of 2'-deoxyadenosine (a metabolic toxin) on 8 d.p.c. The test dose of 2.5 mg/kg 2CdA was modeled for a 5% increased risk of microphthalmia in term fetuses. Exposed embryos were co-treated with PK11195, a nontoxic ligand of the mitochondrial peripheral-type benzodiazepine receptor (Bzrp) that effectively blocks p53 protein induction and developmental toxicity induced with 2CdA. Sampling intervals were anchored to the conditional biomarker (p53 protein induction) expressed in 2CdA-treated embryos between 3.0- and 4.5h post-exposure. Since p53 protein induction has been defined as a critical event in 2CdA-induced microphthalmia, these sampling intervals represent times before (3.0h), during (4.5h), and after (6.0h) this critical event. No p53 induction is observed in embryos co-treated with 2CdA and PK11195. All measurements were on RNA from the embryonic headfold.

Project description:This series compares the effects that two pharmacologically distinct ligands at the mitochondrial peripheral-type benzodiazepine receptor (Bzrp) has on gene expression in early mouse embryos cultured under different oxygen levels. Mouse embryos averaging 16-18 somite pairs were explanted on 9 d.p.c. and grown in culture under optimal oxygenation (21% oxygen, hyperbaric with respect to arterial blood = 80-100 mmHg). Most embryos (>90%) develop normally in over a 24h culture period. When embryos receive suboptimal oxygenation for 2.0h (5% oxygen, similar to venous blood = 38-40 mmHg) a high percentage of them (>60%) go on to develop abnormally or else fail. These hypoxic embryos are remediated with 5 uM PK11195 to ~25% malformation rate. Cultured embryos were exposed to different oxygen levels (5% or 21%) in the presence of the Bzrp ligands PK11195 (Bzrp antagonist) versus Ro5-4864 (Bzrp agonist). The sampling time was guided by p53 protein induction with hypoxia, and remediation with PK11195, at 4.0h of culture and exposures. Thus all measurements were on RNA from the prosencephalon collected 2.0h after start of the test period on 9 d.p.c.

Project description:In this dose series pregnant CD-1 (outbred) dams were exposed to the 2-chloro analogue of 2'-deoxyadenosine (a metabolic toxin) on 8 d.p.c. Test doses were developed from a teratological series for 2CdA-induced microphthalmia using BMDS modeling software from the US EPA. Benchmark doses for microarray analysis were: 5.0 mg/kg (25% risk), 2.5 mg/kg (5% risk), 1.25 mg/kg (NOAEL), and 0.625 mg/kg (subNOAEL). All measurements were on RNA from the embryo proper at 3.0h post-treatment.
