Perinatal exposure to an environmentally-relevant mixture of BFRs and ovarian gene expression in the adult rat

ABSTRACT: Brominated flame retardants (BFRs), including polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) and hexabromocyclododecane (HBCDD), leach out from consumer products into the environment. Exposure to BFRs has been associated with effects on endocrine homeostasis. To test the hypothesis that in utero and lactational exposure to BFRs may affect the reproductive system of female offspring, adult female Sprague-Dawley rats were fed nominal doses (0, 0.06, 20, or 60 mg/kg/day) of a BFR dietary mixture formulated to mimic the levels of congeners in house dust from prior to mating until weaning. Vaginal opening and the day of first estrus occurred at a significantly earlier age among offspring from the 20 mg/kg/day BFR group, indicating that the onset of puberty was advanced. Histological analysis of ovaries from post-natal day 46 offspring revealed an increase in the incidence of multi-oocyte follicles. Toxicogenomics analysis of ovarian gene expression identified upstream regulators, including HIF1A, CREB1, EGF, the β-estradiol and PPARA pathways, predicted to be downregulated in the 20 mg/kg/day or the 60 mg/kg/day group and to contribute to the gene expression patterns observed. Thus, perinatal exposure to BFRs dysregulated ovarian folliculogenesis and signaling pathways that are fundamental for ovarian function.

Exposure to a PFOA, PFOS and PFHxS mixture during gestation and lactation alters the liver proteome in offspring of CD-1 mice

Project description:PFAS are persistent man-made chemicals considered to be emerging pollutants, with PFOA, PFOS, and PFHxS having associations with liver toxicity and steatosis. PFOA, PFOS, and PFHxS can undergo placental/lactational transfer, however, little is known about the impact of PFAS mixtures during the developmental window, nor maternal diet on PFAS adverse effects. It was hypothesized that gestational/lactational PFAS exposure would alter the pup liver proteome. The work herein evaluated the liver proteome in offspring, identifying potential biochemical/signaling pathways altered via maternal PFAS exposure. Timed-pregnant CD-1 dams were fed a standard chow or 60% kcal high-fat diet. From GD1 until PND20, dams were orally gavaged daily with either 0.5% Tween 20, individual PFOA, PFOS, PFHxS at 1 mg/kg, or a mixture (1 mg/kg each, totaling 3 mg/kg). Livers were collected from PND21 offspring and SWATH-MS pro-teomics was performed. IPA analysis revealed disease and biological function pathways involved in liver damage, xenobiotics, and lipid regulation were modulated by PFAS exposure in the PND21 liver: lipid transport, storage, oxidation, and synthesis, xenobiotic metabolism and transport, liver damage and inflammation, and fatty acid metabolism, oxidation and transport. This indicates the pup liver proteome is altered via maternal exposure and predisposes the pup to metabolic dysfunctions.

Impact of Bisphenol-A on the Spliceosome and Meiosis of Sperm in the Testis of Adolescent Mice

Project description:Background：Bisphenol-A (BPA) has estrogenic activity and adversely affects humans and animals' reproductive systems and functions. There has been a disagreement with the safety of BPA exposure at Tolerable daily intake (TDI) (0.05 mg/kg/d) value and non-observed adverse effect level (5 mg/kg/d). The current study investigated the effects of BPA exposure at various doses starting from Tolerable daily intake (0.05 mg/kg/d) to the lowest observed adverse effect level (50 mg/kg/d) on the testis development in male mice offspring. The BPA exposure lasted for 63 days from pregnancy day 0 of the dams to post-natal day (PND) 45 of the offspring. Results：The results showed that BPA exposure significantly increased testis and serum BPA contents of PND 45 mice. The spermatogenic cells became loose, and the lumen of seminiferous tubules enlarged when BPA exposure at 0.05 mg/kg/d TDI. BPA exposure at a low dose (0.05 mg/kg/d) significantly reduced the expression of Scp3 proteins and elevated sperm abnormality. The significant decrease in Scp3 suggested that BPA inhibits the transformation of spermatogonia into spermatozoa in the testis. The RNA-seq proved that the spliceosome was significantly inhibited in the testes of mice exposed to BPA. According to the RT-qPCR, BPA exposure significantly reduced the expression of Snrpc and Hnrnpu. Conclusions：This study indicated that long-term BPA exposure at Tolerable daily intake (0.05 mg/kg/d) is not safe because low-dose long-term exposure to BPA inhibits spermatogonial meiosis in mice testis impairs reproductive function in male offspring.

Nicotinamide Mononucleotide administration prevents doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity and loss in physical activity in mice.

Project description:In this study we investigated whether nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) could protect against Doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity and physical dysfunction in vivo. To assess the short- and long-term toxicity, two Doxo regimens were tested, acute and chronic. In the acute study, C57BL6/J (B6) mice were injected intraperitoneally (i.p.) once with Doxo (20 mg/kg) and NMN (180 mg/kg/day, i.p.) was administered daily for five days before and after the Doxo injection. In the chronic study, B6 mice received a cumulative dose of 20 mg/kg Doxo administered in fractionated doses for five days. NMN (500 mg/kg/day) was supplied in the mice’s drinking water beginning five days before the first injection of Doxo and continuing for 60 days after.

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.

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.
