Evaluation of differential gene expression in a placental cell line exposed to the trichloroethylene metabolite S-(1,2-dichlorovinyl)-L-cysteine (DCVC)
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Trichloroethylene (TCE) is an industrial solvent and widespread environmental contaminant. Human TCE exposure is prevalent, though epidemiological studies testing TCE exposure and adverse birth outcomes are inconclusive. The TCE metabolite S-(1,2-dichlorovinyl)-L-cysteine (DCVC) exhibits toxicity at human-relevant concentrations in a placental cell line. To date, DCVC cytotoxicity mechanistic studies have been limited to single molecular signaling pathways and biological responses. In the current study, genome-wide gene expression and gene set enrichment analyses (GSEA) were used to identify novel genes and pathways altered by human exposure-relevant DCVC concentrations in the human placental cell line HTR-8/SVneo. The results of this study were compared to a parallel study using placental villous exlant tissues.
