Project description:To examine whether the BPA-induced morphological alterations of the fetal mouse mammary glands are a) associated with changes in mRNA expression reflecting estrogenic actions and/or b) dependent on the estrogen receptor α (ERα), we compared the transcriptomal effects of BPA and the steroidal estrogen ethinylestradiol (EE2) on fetal mammary tissues of wild type and ERα knock-out mice. Mammary glands from fetuses of dams exposed to vehicle, 250 ng BPA/kg BW/d or 10 ng EE2/kg BW/d from embryonic day (E) 8 were harvested at E19. Total RNA was subjected to transcriptomal profiling using Affymetrix mouse genome 430 2.0 microarray.

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.

Project description:Endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs) have the potential to cause adverse effects on wildlife and human health. Two important EDCs are the synthetic estrogen 17a-ethynylestradiol (EE2) and bisphenol A (BPA) both of which are xenoestrogens (XEs) as they bind the estrogen receptor and disrupt estrogen physiology in mammals and other vertebrates. In recent years the influence of XEs on oncogenes, specifically in relation to breast and prostate cancer has been the subject of considerable study. In this study healthy primary human prostate epithelial cells (PrECs) were exposed to environmentally relevant concentrations of BPA (5nM and 25nM BPA) and interrogated using a whole genome microarray. Microarray data were analyzed using the Pipeline for Integrated Microarray Expression and Normalization Toolkit (PIMENTo) that provides (1) data pre-processing, (2) and normalization to remove the technical variability across arrays data, (3) data visualization, (4) background subtraction, (5) quality control, and (6) differential expression (DE) analysis using the Bioconductor package 'limma'. Exposure to 5 and 25nM BPA generated 8,876 and 9,525 differentially expressed (DE) genes respectively in treated PrECs. Exposure to EE2 had the greatest effect on the PrEC transcriptome (2,389 DE genes) and all three exposures shared 7,011 common DE genes. Together, the low and high dose of BPA affected 1,839 genes not shared with the EE2 exposure.

Project description:Gene expression microarray analysis was performed on ventral prostate from normal adult rats, and adult rats treated BPA for 4 weeks(10 animals per group). Animals of 4 groups were treated with bisphenol-A (0,10, 30, or 90 ug/kg, i.g., daily) for 4 weeks, and the dosing volume is 10 ml/kg body weight. In this experiment, we only selected samples from two doses(0 and 10µg/kg) to analyze.

Project description:Perinatal exposure to bisphenol A (BPA) has been shown to cause aberrant mammary gland morphogenesis and mammary neoplastic transformation. Yet, the underlying mechanism is poorly understood. We tested the hypothesis that mammary glands exposed to BPA during a susceptible window may lead to its susceptibility to tumorigenesis through a stem-cell mediated mechanism. We exposed 21-day-old Balb/c mice to BPA by gavage (25 µg/kg/day) during puberty for 3 weeks, and a subset of animals were further challenged with one oral dose (30 mg/kg) of 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA) at 2 months of age. Primary mammary cells were isolated at 6 weeks, and 2 and 4 months of age for mammary stem cell (MaSC) quantification and function analysis. Pubertal exposure to the low-dose BPA increased lateral branches and hyperplasia in adult mammary glands and caused an acute increase of MaSC in 6-week-old glands and a delayed increase of luminal progenitors in 4-month-old adult gland. Most importantly, pubertal BPA exposure altered the function of MaSC from different age groups, causing pre-neoplastic lesions in their regenerated glands similar to those induced by DMBA exposure, which indicates that MaSCs are susceptible to BPA-induced transformation. Deep sequencing analysis on MaSC-enriched mammospheres identified a set of aberrantly expressed genes associated with pre-neoplastic lesions in human breast cancer patients. Thus, our study for the first time shows that pubertal BPA exposure altered MaSC gene expression and function such that they induced early neoplastic transformation.

Project description:17alpha-ethinylestradiol (EE2) is one of the most potent estrogens that have the ability to interfere with the endocrine system of fish. The objective was to investigate the effects and mechanisms of action caused by 60 days of dietary exposure to 0.2 mg EE2/kg and 0.07 mg EE2/kg feed in female largemouth bass (LMB) during the reproductive season. Microarrays and pathway analyses were performed on hepatic tissues to identify genes and biological processes altered in female LMB by EE2 exposure. The hypothesis was that the two concentrations of EE2 would produce dose-response changes in sensitive genes. Body and ovary weights were measured and blood was collected for measurement of plasma steroid hormones (17beta-estradiol (E2), testosterone (T)) and vitellogenin (VTG) using ELISA. The 0.2 mg EE2/kg feed exposure reduced the gonadosomatic index (GSI) by 75%, and plasma levels of E2 and T were reduced by over 90%. Plasma VTG was increased by approximately 100% (from 4 to 8mg/ml) by the 0.2 mg/kg treatment. T levels, from the 0.07 mg EE2/kg feed, reduced GSI by approximately 30% and circulating E2 and T by ~80% but did not affect VTG concentrations. We found 1,594 and 1,165 genes were significantly affected (p<0.05) by the 0.07 mg EE2/kg feed and 0.2 mg EE2/kg feed, respectively. Gene ontology (GO) analysis revealed that there were different biological processes regulated by the two concentrations of EE2. Pathway analysis showed that the 0.07 mg EE2/kg feed exposure caused differential regulation of genes associated with fatty acid biosynthesis and glycolysis, indicating some metabolic effects. In contrast, the 0.2 mg EE2/kg feed exposure altered transcription of genes involved in immune response and apoptosis, suggesting a toxic response at this concentration. These results suggest that the two concentrations demonstrated distinct physiological responses, with the higher concentration inducing complete endocrine disruption in LMB. These findings demonstrate the usefulness of microarrays to identify possible biomarkers and modes of toxic action to dietary exposure in LMB. Two concentrations of EE2 would produce dose-response changes in sensitive genes. Female LMB were fed 5 days per week for 60 days with floating pellets that contained 0.07 or 0.2 mg/kg of EE2.

Project description:Adult (14 weeks old) Sprague-Dawley rats showing at least three consecutive normal periods (4 day) of estrous cycles were randomly assigned to four groups: 1: saline, 2: nicotine (6 mg/kg), 3: OC and 4: nicotine (6 mg/kg) + OC. Rats were exposed to these treatments for a month. At the end of treatments, hippocampus was obtained, immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen. We are sending one side of hippocampi to Southeast Center for Integrated Metabolomics for analysis at the University of Florida.

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.

Project description:The objective of this study was to investigate pathway signatures altered in the livers of female largemouth bass (LMB) and their potential links with biological responses by dietary exposure to 0.2 mg EE2/Kg (1% of their body weight) over two months using a transcriptomics approach. A high concentration of dietary 17alpha-ethinylestradiol (EE2) can activate key signaling pathways in response to oxidative damage may occur regardless of tumorigenesis and cancer. Female LMB received about 1.2g EE2/day/fish (from EE2-laced feed containing 0.2 mg EE2/Kg) for 60 days.
