Effects of PCB 52 Exposure Via Sub-Acute Nose-Only Inhalation on Gene Expression in Livers of Adolescent Rats

ABSTRACT: Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are persistent environmental toxicants that pose a variety of health risks in humans. PCB 52 has been found in the indoor air of schools where adolescent students and staff are being actively exposed. This study examined the livers of adolescent Sprague-Dawley rats after sub-acute exposure to PCB 52 via nose-only inhalation. Rats were exposed for 4 hours daily for 28 consecutive days. RNA extracted from both male and female livers were submitted for RNA sequencing to compare the effects of PCB 52 on the expression of genes in the liver.

Project description:Background: In classrooms high concentrations of particulate matter PM10 were measured. It is unknown whether the hazard of indoor particles is similar to that of the better studied outdoor particles. This study therefore analyzed adverse biological effects of classroom in comparison to outdoor PM10. Methods: Samples were taken from six schools during teaching hours. Genome-wide gene expression in human bronchial BEAS-2B epithelial cells was analyzed, and regulated genes were verified by quantitative PCR. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), endotoxin, and cat allergen Fel d 1 were analyzed with standard methods. Enhancement of allergic reactivity by PM10 was confirmed with CD63 upregulation in human primary basophils. Acceleration of human blood coagulation was determined with supernatants of PM10-exposed human peripheral blood monocytes. Results: Indoor PM10 induced SERPINB2 (involved in blood coagulation) and inflammatory genes (like CXCL6, CXCL1, IL6, IL8, all p<0.001). Outdoor PM10 induced xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes (CYP1A1, CYP1B1, TIPARP, all p<0.001). The induction of inflammatory genes by indoor PM10 could be explained by endotoxin (indoor 128.5M-BM-142.2EU/mg versus outdoor 13.4M-BM-121.5EU/mg, p<0.001), the induction of CYP by outdoor PAH (indoor 8.3M-BM-14.9ng/mg versus outdoor 16.7M-BM-115.2ng/mg, p<0.01). The induction of SERPINB2 was confirmed by a more rapid human blood coagulation (p<0.05). Indoor PM10 had no effect on the allergic reactivity from human primary basophils, except in cat allergic individuals. This was explained by varying Fel d 1 concentrations in indoor PM10 (p<0.001). Conclusions: Indoor PM10, compared to outdoor PM10, was 6 times higher, had a different composition, and on an equal weight basis induced more inflammatory and allergenic reactions, and accelerated blood coagulation. Outdoor PM10 had significantly lower effects, but induced detoxifying enzymes. Therefore, preliminary interventions for the reduction of classroom PM10 seem reasonable, perhaps by intensified ventilation. For genome-wide gene expression analysis, BEAS-2B cells (passage 41) were incubated with 10M-BM-5g/ml PM10 (school 4 indoor and outdoor) for 4, 10 or 24h, all in triplicate. experiment type : time course
