Effects of 28-day nose-only inhalation of PCB52 (2,2′,5,5′-Tetrachlorobiphenyl) on the brain transcriptome

ABSTRACT: Banned from mass production, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) still pose a neurological health threat decades later. PCB52, a volatile compound, has been found in the indoor air of schools where adolescent students and staff are exposed. The adolescent brain is vulnerable and highly influenced by the environment around it. This study used adolescent Sprague-Dawley rats to determine the neurological effects of a subacute (28-day) PCB52 inhalation exposure. Rats were exposed 4 h a day for 28 consecutive days with neurobehavioral tests conducted during the last 5 days of exposure. Based on the data including brain weights, PCB52 and metabolite levels, gene expression in the striatum and cerebellum, and neurobehavioral tests (Y-maze, HBT, OFT, and EPM); a subacute inhalation of PCB52 results in sex-specific differences in response to exposure. Our results indicate multilevel PCB52 influence that is different in adolescent males and females; from gene expression to downstream innate mechanisms driving behavior.

Metagenomic sequencing of adult zebrafish feces after SMZ exposure (Exposure of Danio rerio to environmental sulfamethoxazole may contribute to neurobehavioral abnormalities via gut microbiome disturbance)

Project description:The neurotoxic effects and mechanisms of low-dose and long-term sulfamethoxazole (SMZ) exposure remain unknown. This study exposed zebrafish to environmental SMZ concentrations and observed behavioral outcomes. SMZ exposure increased hyperactivity and altered the transcript levels of 17 genes associated with neurological function. It impaired intestinal function by reducing the number of intestinal goblet cells and lipid content. Metabolomic results indicated that the contents of several lipids and amino acids in the gut were altered, which might affect the expression levels of neurological function-related genes. Metagenomic results demonstrated that SMZ exposure substantially altered the composition of the gut microbiome. Zebrafish receiving a transplanted fecal microbiome from the SMZ group were also found to exhibit abnormal behavior, suggesting that the gut microbiome is an important target for SMZ exposure-induced neurobehavioral abnormalities. Multi-omics correlation analysis revealed that gut micrometabolic function was related to differential gut metabolite levels, which may affect neurological function through the gut-brain-axis. Reduced abundance of Lefsonia and Microbacterium was strongly correlated with intestinal metabolic function and may be the key bacterial genera in neurobehavioral changes. This study confirms for the first time that SMZ-induced neurotoxicity in zebrafish is closely mediated by alterations in the gut microbiome.

Chronic exposure to butyl-paraben causes photosensitivity disruption and memory impairment in adult zebrafish

Project description:Limited studies on neurotoxicity following chronic exposure to butyl-paraben (BuP) have been conducted. In this study, neurobehavior in zebrafish adults was assessed using a novel tank test, photomotor response tests, and T-maze tests after exposure to BuP for 28 days at the concentrations of 0, 0.01, 0.1, and 1.0 mg/L. To comprehensively understand the underlying molecular perturbations in the brain, alterations in transcripts, neurotransmitters, and neurosteroids were measured. We found that BuP penetrated the blood-brain barrier and impaired neurobehavior in photosensitivity at 1.0 mg/L and in memory at 0.1 and 1.0 mg/L. RNA-seq analysis showed that phototransduction, tight junctions, and neuroactive ligand receptor activity were significantly affected, which explains the observed abnormal neurobehaviors. Neurosteroid analysis revealed that BuP increased cortisol levels in a concentration-dependent manner and specifically reduced allopregnanolone levels at all tested concentrations, suggesting that cortisol and allopregnanolone are significant neurosteroid markers associated with photosensitivity and memory deficits. Collectively, we demonstrated that BuP can cross the blood-brain and modulates the levels of transcripts, associated with phototransduction and circadian rhythm, and neurosteroidal cortisol and allopregnanolone, resulting in abnormal neurobehavioral responses to light stimulation and learning and memory.

Formaldehyde-induced changes in microRNA signaling [Agilent]

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are critical regulators of gene expression, yet much remains unknown regarding miRNA changes resulting from environmental exposures and whether they influence pathway signaling across various tissues and time. To gain knowledge on these novel topics, we set out to investigate in vivo miRNA responses to inhaled formaldehyde, an important air pollutant known to disrupt miRNA expression profiles. Rats were exposed by inhalation to either 0 or 2 ppm formaldehyde (6 hours/day) for 7 days, 28 days, or 28 days followed by a 7 day recovery. Genome-wide miRNA expression profiles and associated signaling pathways were assessed within the nasal respiratory mucosa, circulating mononuclear white blood cells (WBC), and bone marrow (BM). Male Fischer rats received nose-only inhalation exposures of 2 ppm formaldehyde. Three exposure durations were investigated: (1) 2 ppm formaldehyde exposure, 6 hours/day, for 7 days (7-day group), (2) 2 ppm formaldehyde exposure, 6 hours/day, for 28 days (28-day group), and (3) 2 ppm formaldehyde exposure, 6 hours/day, for 28 days, with a 7 day recovery period following the last exposure (28-day plus recovery group). Control (unexposed) rats were placed in nose-only exposure tubes containing room air for the same duration. After the last exposure period (or the last recovery period for the 28-day plus recovery group), animals were euthanized. RNA were assessed from sampes collected from the nasal epithelium, circulating white blood cells, and bone marrow cells. Genome-wide miRNA expression profiles were evaluated using microarrays.

Lung response to oil vapor exposure in rats

Project description:The lung response to inhalation exposure to oil vapor particles was investigated in a rat model. Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed by whole-body inhalation to air or an aerosol containing oil vapor particles at concentrations of 300 ppm, 6 hours/day for 1 day (shot-term) or 300 ppm, 6 hours/day, 4 days/week for 4 weeks (long-term). The control and oil vapor exposed rats were euthanized at post-exposure time intervals of 1 and 28 days and lung toxicity determined. Analysis of bronchoalveolar lavage parameters of toxicity such as lactate dehydrogenase activity, oxidant generation, and inflammation did not reveal any significant lung toxicity in the oil vapor exposed rats. Approximately 50 genes each were found significantly differentially expressed in both the short- and long-term exposure groups of the rats at the one-day post-exposure time interval. The data obtained from the present study demonstrated that oil vapor inhalation exposure, under the exposure conditions employed in the present study, did not result in any significant lung toxicity in the rats despite the gene expression changes detected.

Gene expression changes in rat lung induced by six pyrrolizidine alkaloids

Project description:Pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs) are secondary plant metabolites that can be found worldwide. They can have an impact to human health by inducing acute toxic effects like veno-occlusive disease in the liver and pulmonary arterial hypertension in the lung. The study focuses on the identification of gene expression changes in vivo in rat lungs after treatment with six structurally different PAs (echimidine, heliotrine, lasiocarpine, senecionine, senkirkine or platyphylline). Rats were treated by gavage daily with 3.3 mg/kg body weight PAs for 28 days. After this subacute exposure the transcriptional changes in the lung were investigated by whole genome microarray analysis.

Quantitative Proteomics Reveals the Dynamic Pathophysiology across Different Stages in a Rat Model of Severe Traumatic Brain Injury

Project description:Background: Severe Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) has become a growing health problem, causing a vast society burden worldwide. However, characteristic mechanisms between acute and subacute stages have not been systemically revealed. Methods: Sixty rats were randomly divided into sham surgery and model groups. Severe TBI model was induced by controlled cortical impact (CCI). Neurological deficits were evaluated by modified neurological severity score (mNSS). H&E staining and immunofluorescence were performed to assess the injured brain tissues. The protein expressions of hippocampus were analyzed by the tandem mass tag-based (TMT) quantitative proteomics on the third and fourteenth days. The shared and stage-specific differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were screened, and then analyzed by the gene ontology (GO), Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) and protein-protein interaction (PPI). Eventually, target proteins were further verified by Western blotting (WB). Results: The neurological deficits always exist from the acute stage to the subacute stage of severe TBI and showed a downward trend. The brain parenchyma of TBI models was dramatically impaired. A total of 375 and 139 DEPs were identified at day 3 and 14, respectively. Sixty-three DEPs were co-existed between the two stages. Both stages were mainly related to the complement and coagulation cascades pathway. Three pathways associated with gastric acid secretion, insulin secretion and thyroid hormone synthesis were only enriched in the acute phase. Comparatively, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) was significantly enriched in the subacute stage. WB confirmed the reliability of the TMT quantitative proteomics results. Conclusion: Our findings highlight the same and different pathological processes in the acute and subacute phases of severe TBI and provide potential protein biomarkers.
