Project description:The effects exerted by three mixtures of Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCB), one featuring dioxin-like (DL) and two featuring non dioxin-like (NDL) congeners, on human fetal corpora cavernosa cells representative of a major male endocrine-sensitive organ, have been evaluated by gene expression profiling. PCB congeners concentrations used were derived from human internal exposure data to explore the impact of the adult body burden on a fetal tissue. Cell exposure were performed for 72h mimicking a chronic exposure. Experiment conditions: control, three treatments with PCB-Mix1, PCB-Mix2 or PCB-Mix3. Biological replicates: 3 control replicates, 3 replicates per treatment. Technical replica: 2 (dye swap) per biological replica. Direct comparison design (control vs treated samples) in 12/16 arrays (biological replicates 1 and 2); Loop design in 4/16 arrays (biological replicate 3).

Project description:Exposure to high fat diet (HFD) and persistent organic pollutants including polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) is associated with liver injury in human populations and with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and steatohepatitis (NASH) in animal models. Exposure of HFD-fed male mice to the non-dioxin-like (NDL) PCB mixture Aroclor1260 or to dioxin-like (DL) PCB126 or to the combination caused steatohepatitis and differentially altered the liver proteome with pathways involving epigenetic regulation of gene expression. Here unbiased RNA sequencing of miRNA (miRNA-seq) and subsequent network analysis to characterize the biological pathways altered by HFD and PCB exposure compared to HFD alone. Distinct miRNA expression patterns reveald a potential role of miRNAs in the pathogenesis of NAFLD. These results demonstrate miRNA and transcriptome pathways in PCB-related hepatic inflammation and fibrosis in a mouse model of NAFLD.

Project description:Exposure to Polychlorobiphenyls (PCBs) is known to cause serious health effects in human but the gene expression profiles leading to development of differnet diseases and disorders are not fully understood. The knowledge of global gene expression will help us to devlop early disease or disorder biomarkers for PCB induced health effects. We used microarrays to detail the global gene expression profile underlying the effects of PCB 138 exposure to human PBMC leading to identification of distinct classes of up-regulated and down-regulated genes and cellular processes.

Project description:In this study, we explore the implications of oral exposure to the MARBLES mixture on the brain in adult female mice through two omics approaches, metabolomics and transcriptomics. The individual PCB congeners (PCB 11, 28, 52, 84, 95, 101, 118, 135, 138, 149, 153, and 180) used to make the MARBLES PCB mix. Female C57Bl/6J mice (> 6-week-old) were randomized into exposure groups (N = 4-6) and orally exposed to 0, 0.1, 1, or 6 mg/kg bw/day of the MARBLES mix in organic peanut butter/organic peanut oil for 7 weeks.The striatum and prefrontal cortex were isolated and, together with the liver, prepared for RNA sequencing.

Project description:We provide here the alterations in gene expression profiles of HepaRG cells, a validated model for cellular steatosis, exposed to three concentration of the polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) 126, one of the most potent chemical inducing NAFLD. Additionnally, three concentration of the pesticide active ingredient glyphosate were tested. This ultimately suggested sensitive biomarkers of exposure. A gene ontology analysis showed hallmarks of an activation of the AhR receptor by dioxin-like compounds. Our study provides grounds for the development of molecular signatures of fatty liver diseases to rapidly assess toxic effects of chemicals in the HepaRG cell line.

Project description:(Abstract) Toxicogenomics has great potential for enhancing our understanding of environmental chemical toxicity, hopefully leading to better-informed human health risk assessments. This study employed toxicogenomic technology to reveal species differences in response to two prototypical aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) agonists, 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) and the polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congener PCB 126. Dose responses of primary cultures of rat and human hepatocytes were determined using species-specific microarrays sharing over 4,000 gene orthologs. Forty-seven human and 79 rat genes satisfied dose response criteria for both chemicals and were subjected to further analysis including the calculation of EC50 and the relative potency (REP) of PCB 126 for each gene. Only 5 responsive orthologous genes were shared between the two species, yet the geometric mean of the REPs for all rat and human modeled responsive genes were 0.06 (95% Confidence Interval (CI); 0.03-0.1) and 0.002 (95% CI; 0.001-0.005), respectively, suggesting broad species differences in the initial events that follow AHR activation but precede toxicity. This indicates that there are species differences in both the specific genes that responded and the agonist potency and relative potency for those genes. This observed insensitivity of human cells to PCB 126 is consistent with more traditional measurements of AHR activation (i.e., CYP1A1 enzyme activity) and suggests that the species difference in PCB 126 sensitivity is likely due to certain aspects of AHR function. That a species divergence also exists in this expanded AHR-regulated gene repertoire is a novel finding and should help when extrapolating animal data to humans. Experiment Overall Design: Primary hepatocyte cultures, separated into 2 pools of 3 female Sprague Dawley rats each, were treated with vehicle (0.5% DMSO), TCDD (-14 to -6.5 log10 M) , or PCB 126 (-12 to -5 log10 M) for 48h. Total RNA was extracted and screened with RG-U34A microarrays for dose response.

Project description:Penile erection is mediated by the corpora cavernosa, a trabecular-like vascular bed, which enlarges upon vasodilation, but its regulation is not completely understood. Here, we show that perivascular fibroblasts in the corpora cavernosa support vasodilation by reducing norepinephrine availability. We used scRNAseq to investigate fibroblast heterogeneity in the penis.
