Project description:Pregnant C3H mice were given tap water (control group) and tap water containing 85 ppm sodium arsenite from gestational day 8 to 18 (arsenic group), respectively. The DNA methylomes of sperm of F1 mice were investigated by RRBS method. The results showed that gestational arsenic exposure increased hypomethylated cytosines in active retrotransposon subfamilies. The present study has indicated environmental impacts on sperm DNA methylome establishment.

Project description:Exposure to high levels of arsenic in drinking water is associated with several types of cancers including lung, bladder and skin, as well as vascular disease and diabetes. Drinking water standards are based primarily on epidemiology and extrapolation from higher dose experiments, rather than measurements of phenotypic changes associated with chronic exposure to levels of arsenic similar to the current standard of 10ppb, and little is known about the difference between arsenic in food as opposed to arsenic in water. Measurement of phenotypic changes at low doses may be confounded by the effect of laboratory diet, in part because of trace amounts of arsenic in standard laboratory chows, but also because of broad metabolic changes in response to the chow itself. Finally, this series contrasts 8hr, 1mg/kg injected arsenic with the various chronic exposures, and also contrasts the acute effects of arsenic, dexamethasone or their combination. Male C57BL/6 mice were fed on two commercially available laboratory diets (LRD-5001 and AIN-76A) were chronically exposed, through drinking water or food, to environmentally relevant concentrations of sodium arsenite, or acutely exposed to dexamethasone. Experiment Overall Design: Male C57BL/6 mice, fed on two commercially available laboratory diets (LRD-5001 and AIN-76A), were chronically exposed through drinking water or food, to environmentally relevant concentrations of sodium arsenite. Another group animals, fed on the AIN 76A diet, was IP injected with dexamethasone (1 mg/kg), sodium arsenite (1mg/kg), both dexamethosone and arsenite, or saline alone.

Project description:Purpose: To determine the effects of sodium arsenite in male mice on adaptive thermogenesis. Methods: Male C57BL/6J mice were exposed to sodium arsenite in drinking water at 300 parts per billion (ppb) for 9 weeks Findings: Arsenic-treated mice experienced significantly decreased metabolic heat production when acclimated to chronic cold tolerance testing, as evidenced by indirect calorimetry, despite no change in physical activity. Arsenic exposure increased total fat mass, and unilocular lipid droplet size in both subcutaneous inguinal white adipose tissue (iWAT) and brown adipose tissue (BAT). Conclusion: Chronic arsenic exposure impacts the mitochondria of thermogenic tissues involved in energy expenditure and glucose regulation, providing novel mechanistic evidence for arsenic’s role in metabolic pathologies.

Project description:Arsenic is an ubiquitous contaminant and a toxic metalloid which presents two main redox states in nature: arsenite [AsIII] and arsenate [AsV]. Arsenic resistance in Synechocystis sp. strain PCC 6803 is mediated by the arsBHC operon and two additional arsenate reductases encoded by the arsI1 and arsI2 genes. Here we describe the genome-wide responses in response to the presence of arsenate and arsenite in wild type and in mutants in the arsenic resistance system. Both forms of arsenic produced similar responses in the wild type strain including induction of several stress related genes and repression of energy generation processes. The responses observed in the arsB mutant strain were similar to the wild type in short term but were maintained in time while they were only transient in the wild type strain. In contrast, the responses observed in a strain lacking all arsenate reductases (the SARS12 strain) were somewhat different and included lower induction of genes involved in metal homeostasis and Fe-S cluster biogenesis. These results suggest that these two processes are targeted by arsenite in the wild type strain. Finally, analysis of the arsR mutant strain revealed that ArsR seems to only control 5 genes in the genome. Furthermore, over-expression of ArsB conferred hypersentivity to nickel, copper and cadmium in an arsR mutant strain. Analysis of genome-wide gene expression patterns in response to arsenic in WT and mutants involved in arsenic detoxification in the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp PCC 6803. Cells treated with arsenate or arsenite for 1h. Details: WT cells were treated with 1 mM arsenite for 1 h and its expression profile compared to untreated cells (grown in BG11C media). The effects of arsenate were analyzed in the same way but using a modified BG11C media that constains 15% of the normal phosphate concentration (BG11C low phosphate). A reduction in the phosphate concentration in the media is essential to detect grow inhibition after arsenate addition. In the same way that for arsenite cells were treated with 50 mM arsenate for 1 h and their expression profile was compared to untreated cells. Expression profiles of mutant strains lacking arsB gene (SARSB strain; this strain is hypersensitive to arsenite because it lacks the arsenite exporter) or arsR gene (SARSR strain; this strain expresses the arsBHC constitutively) in control conditions and in response to arsenite addition were also analyzed. In addition the expression profiles of a mutant lacking arsenate reductases (SARS12 strain that has interrupted arsC, arsI1 and arsI2 genes; this strain is hypersensitive to arsenate) were analyzed in both control conditions and after addition of 50 mM arsenate.

Project description:The present study used microarray expression profiling to determine the effects of embryonic arsenic exposure. Fertilized killifish (Fundulus heteroclitus) eggs were exposed to 0, 5, 15, or 25ppm arsenic as sodium arsenite. To examine differentially expressed genes, the microarrays were probed using RNA obtained from the control and 25ppm-exposed killifish just after hatching. No differences were noted in survival or hatching success between any of the groups. After analysis, a set of 332 genes was found to accurately distinguish between the control and 25ppm exposure groups. Expression of several of the genes (CDBP1, Arts1, FetB, and Fbp7) was quantified by qPCR in the lower exposure groups and at earlier time points to examine temporal and dose-responsive expression patterns. These results will enable us to better understand how arsenic impacts development. Killifish eggs were fertilized, divided into petri dishes containing 40 eggs (n=10 replicate petri dishes), and cultured until hatch in 0 or 25 ppm arsenic as sodium arsenite. Four to five hatchlings within each petri dish were pooled to obtain RNA. A total of 20 arrays were probed, 10 with RNA from control fish and 10 with RNA from the arsenic-exposed fish.

Project description:The present study investigated arsenicâs effects on mummichogs (Fundulus heteroclitus), while also examining what role that gender or age of exposure might play. Adult male and female mummichogs were exposed to 172ppb, 575ppb, or 1,720ppb arsenic as sodium arsenite for 10 days immediately prior to spawning. No differences were noted in the number or viability of eggs between the groups, but there was a significant increase in deformities in the 1,720ppb arsenic exposure group. Total RNA from adult livers or 6-week-old juveniles was used to probe custom macroarrays for changes in gene expression. In females, 3% of the genes were commonly differentially expressed in the 172 and 575ppb exposure groups. In the males, between 1.1-3% of the differentially expressed genes were in common between the exposure groups. Several genes, including apolipoprotein, serum amyloid precursor, lysozyme, and tributyltin-binding protein, were commonly expressed in either a dose-responsive or dose-specific, but across genders, manner. These patterns of regulation were confirmed by QPCR. These findings will provide us with a better understanding of the effects of dose, gender, and exposure age on the response to arsenic. Adult mummichogs (Fundulus heteroclitus) were exposed to either 0 or 1,720ppb sodium arsenite for 10 days before the full moon. Each treatment group had 5 20-gallon plastic tanks with 2 male and 5 female fish per tank. The fish were exposed via a static renewal, with renewals every 48 hours. Mummichogs were housed at 25C in a 14/10 light/dark cycle at 18% salinity. On the 3 days surrounding the full moon, spawning substrates were provided and eggs collected. Adult males: After the last day of egg collection, the adults were euthanized. The livers were removed from the males, placed in TRI-Reagent® for RNA isolation (Sigma Chemical Co, St. Louis, MO), and then stored at -80C. Juveniles: Eggs were transferred to clean water and allowed to hatch. The juveniles were grown out in clean water for 6 weeks and then were euthanized. Whole juveniles (7-10 per exposure per tank) were placed in TRI-Reagent® for RNA isolation (Sigma Chemical Co, St. Louis, MO), and then stored at -80C.
