Project description:Background：Bisphenol-A (BPA) has estrogenic activity and adversely affects humans and animals' reproductive systems and functions. There has been a disagreement with the safety of BPA exposure at Tolerable daily intake (TDI) (0.05 mg/kg/d) value and non-observed adverse effect level (5 mg/kg/d). The current study investigated the effects of BPA exposure at various doses starting from Tolerable daily intake (0.05 mg/kg/d) to the lowest observed adverse effect level (50 mg/kg/d) on the testis development in male mice offspring. The BPA exposure lasted for 63 days from pregnancy day 0 of the dams to post-natal day (PND) 45 of the offspring. Results：The results showed that BPA exposure significantly increased testis and serum BPA contents of PND 45 mice. The spermatogenic cells became loose, and the lumen of seminiferous tubules enlarged when BPA exposure at 0.05 mg/kg/d TDI. BPA exposure at a low dose (0.05 mg/kg/d) significantly reduced the expression of Scp3 proteins and elevated sperm abnormality. The significant decrease in Scp3 suggested that BPA inhibits the transformation of spermatogonia into spermatozoa in the testis. The RNA-seq proved that the spliceosome was significantly inhibited in the testes of mice exposed to BPA. According to the RT-qPCR, BPA exposure significantly reduced the expression of Snrpc and Hnrnpu. Conclusions：This study indicated that long-term BPA exposure at Tolerable daily intake (0.05 mg/kg/d) is not safe because low-dose long-term exposure to BPA inhibits spermatogonial meiosis in mice testis impairs reproductive function in male offspring.

Project description:Environmental factors during perinatal development influence developmental plasticity and disease susceptibility via alterations to the epigenome. Developmental exposure to the endocrine active compound, bisphenol A (BPA), has previously been associated with altered methylation at candidate gene loci. Here, we undertake the first genome-wide characterization of DNA methylation profiles in the liver of murine offspring perinatally exposed to multiple doses of BPA through the maternal diet. Using a tiered focusing approach, our strategy proceeds from unbiased broad DNA methylation analysis using methylation-based next generation sequencing technology to in-depth quantitative site-specific CpG methylation determination using the Sequenom EpiTYPER MassARRAY platform to profile liver DNA methylation patterns in offspring maternally exposed to BPA during gestation and lactation to doses ranging from 0 BPA/kg (Ctr), 50 M-BM-5g BPA/kg (UG), or 50 mg BPA/kg (MG) diet (N=4 per group). Genome-wide analyses indicate non-monotonic effects of DNA methylation patterns following perinatal exposure to BPA, corroborating previous studies using multiple doses of BPA with non-monotonic outcomes. We observed enrichment of regions of altered methylation (RAMs) within CpG island (CGI) shores, but little evidence of RAM enrichment in CGIs. An analysis of promoter regions identified several hundred novel BPA-associated methylation events, and methylation alterations in the Myh7b and Slc22a12 gene promoters were validated. Using the Comparative Toxicogenomics Database, a number of candidate genes that have previously been associated with BPA-related gene expression changes were identified, and gene set enrichment testing identified epigenetically dysregulated pathways involved in metabolism and stimulus response. In this study, non-monotonic dose dependent alterations in DNA methylation among BPA-exposed mouse liver samples and their relevant pathways were identified and validated. The comprehensive methylome map presented here provides candidate loci underlying the role of early BPA exposure and later in life health and disease status. For this study, liver DNA from a subset of a/a wild-type animals was analyzed for full methylome characteristics: 1) standard diet (Ctr, n = 4 offspring; 2 male and 2 female); 2) 50 M-BM-5g BPA/kg diet (UG, n = 4 offspring; 2 male and 2 female); 3) 50 mg BPA/kg diet (MG, n = 4 offspring; 1 male and 3 female).

Project description:Bisphenol compounds (BPs) have various industrial uses and can enter the environment through various sources. To evaluate the ecotoxicity of BPs and identify potential gene candidates involved in the plant toxicity, Arabidopsis thaliana was exposed to bisphenol A (BPA), BPB, BPE, BPF, and BPS at a concentration of 1, 3, 10 mg/L for a duration of 14 days, and their growth status were monitored. At day 14, roots and leaves samples were collected for internal BPs exposure concentration detection, RNA-seq, and morphological observations. As shown in the results, exposure to BPs significantly disturbed root elongation, exhibiting a trend of stimulation at low concentration and inhibition at high concentration. Additionally, BPs exhibited pronounced generation of ROS, while none of the pollutants caused significant changes in root morphology. Internal exposure concentration analysis indicate that BPs tend to accumulate in the roots, with BPS exhibiting the highest level of accumulation. The results of RNA-seq indicate that shared 211 differently expressed genes (DEGs) of these 5 exposure groups are enriched in defense response, generation of precursor metabolites, response to organic substance, response to oxygen-containing, response to hormone, oxidation-reduction process and so on. Regarding unique DEGs in each group, BPS was mainly associated with the redox pathway, BPB primarily influenced seed germination, and in BPA, BPE and BPF were primarily involved in metabolic signaling pathways. Our results provide new insights for BPs induced adverse effects on Arabidopsis thaliana and suggest that the ecological risks associated with BPA alternatives cannot be ignored. At 14 d, roots in 3 mg/kg BPA, BPB, BPE, BPF and BPS exposure groups and the control were collected for RNA-seq analysis.

Project description:Concentration- and time-dependent genomic changes in the mouse urinary bladder following exposure to arsenate in drinking water for up to twelve weeks. Inorganic arsenic (Asi) is a known human bladder carcinogen. The objective of this study was to examine the concentration dependence of the genomic response to Asi in the urinary bladders of mice. C57BL/6J mice were exposed for 1 or 12 weeks to arsenate in drinking water at concentrations of 0.5, 2, 10, and 50 mg As/L. Urinary bladders were analyzed using gene expression microarrays. A consistent reversal was observed in the direction of gene expression change: from predominantly decreased expression at 1 week to predominantly increased expression at 12 weeks. These results are consistent with evidence from in vitro studies of an acute adaptive response that is suppressed on longer exposure due to down-regulation of Fos. Pathways with the highest enrichment in gene expression changes were associated with epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition, inflammation, and proliferation. Benchmark dose (BMD) analysis determined that the lowest median BMD values for pathways were above 5 mg As/L, despite the fact that pathway enrichment was observed at the 0.5 mg As/L exposure concentration. This disparity may result from the non-monotonic nature of the concentration-responses for the expression changes of a number of genes, as evidenced by the much fewer gene expression changes at 2 mg As/L compared to lower or higher concentrations. Pathway categories with concentration-related gene expression changes included cellular morphogenesis, inflammation, apoptosis/survival, cell cycle control, and DNA damage response. The results of this study provide evidence of a concentration-dependent transition in the mode of action for the subchronic effects of Asi in mouse bladder cells in the vicinity of 2 mg Asi/L.

Project description:17alpha-ethinylestradiol (EE2) is one of the most potent estrogens that have the ability to interfere with the endocrine system of fish. The objective was to investigate the effects and mechanisms of action caused by 60 days of dietary exposure to 0.2 mg EE2/kg and 0.07 mg EE2/kg feed in female largemouth bass (LMB) during the reproductive season. Microarrays and pathway analyses were performed on hepatic tissues to identify genes and biological processes altered in female LMB by EE2 exposure. The hypothesis was that the two concentrations of EE2 would produce dose-response changes in sensitive genes. Body and ovary weights were measured and blood was collected for measurement of plasma steroid hormones (17beta-estradiol (E2), testosterone (T)) and vitellogenin (VTG) using ELISA. The 0.2 mg EE2/kg feed exposure reduced the gonadosomatic index (GSI) by 75%, and plasma levels of E2 and T were reduced by over 90%. Plasma VTG was increased by approximately 100% (from 4 to 8mg/ml) by the 0.2 mg/kg treatment. T levels, from the 0.07 mg EE2/kg feed, reduced GSI by approximately 30% and circulating E2 and T by ~80% but did not affect VTG concentrations. We found 1,594 and 1,165 genes were significantly affected (p<0.05) by the 0.07 mg EE2/kg feed and 0.2 mg EE2/kg feed, respectively. Gene ontology (GO) analysis revealed that there were different biological processes regulated by the two concentrations of EE2. Pathway analysis showed that the 0.07 mg EE2/kg feed exposure caused differential regulation of genes associated with fatty acid biosynthesis and glycolysis, indicating some metabolic effects. In contrast, the 0.2 mg EE2/kg feed exposure altered transcription of genes involved in immune response and apoptosis, suggesting a toxic response at this concentration. These results suggest that the two concentrations demonstrated distinct physiological responses, with the higher concentration inducing complete endocrine disruption in LMB. These findings demonstrate the usefulness of microarrays to identify possible biomarkers and modes of toxic action to dietary exposure in LMB. Two concentrations of EE2 would produce dose-response changes in sensitive genes. Female LMB were fed 5 days per week for 60 days with floating pellets that contained 0.07 or 0.2 mg/kg of EE2.

Project description:The world-wide used herbicide alachlor is among the priority substances listed in the European Water Framework Directive. We aimed at finding molecular biomarkers in the model yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae that may be used to predict potential cytotoxic effects of this xenobiotic while providing mechanistic clues possibly relevant for experimentally less accessible non-target eukaryotes. We used microarrays to carry out a gene expression profiling analysis in S. cereviseae strain BY4741 upon 2 hours exposure to alachlor at concentrations exerting slight to moderate levels of phenotypic effects (inhibition of yeast growth rate). Two exposure scenarios were analysed, namely the lowest observed effect concentration (LOEC; ~8% growth inhibition) and the 20%-inhibitory concentration (IC20), compared to control cells not exposed to the herbicide (CT02). Exponential standardized cell suspensions of S. cerevisiae BY4741 in minimal growth medium were incubated in the presence of 110 or 200 mg/L of ALA (corresponding to the LOEC and the IC20, respectively, of alachlor) or in medium non-supplemented with the herbicide (control cells, CT02) during 2 h, and used for total RNA isolation and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. Exposure experiments with each concentration of alachlor versus controls were carried out independently. For each exposure condition, independent biological triplicates were processed and analysed.

Project description:Bisphenol A (BPA), a widely used chemical in the production of plastics and epoxy resins, has garnered significant attention due to its association with adverse health effects, particularly its endocrine-disrupting properties. Regulatory measures aimed at reducing human exposure to BPA have led to a proliferation of alternative chemicals used in various consumer products. While these alternatives serve to reduce BPA exposure, concerns have arisen regarding their safety and potential toxicity as regrettable substitutes. Previous efforts have demonstrated that in vitro high-throughput transcriptomics (HTTr) studies can be used to assess the endocrine-disrupting potential of BPA alternatives, and this strategy produces transcriptomic points-of-departure (tPoDs) that are protective of human health when compared to the PODs from traditional rodent studies. In this study, we leveraged in vitro HTTr advancements to assess the toxicity of eleven data-poor legacy chemicals sharing structural similarities to BPA. Human breast cancer MCF-7 cells were exposed to BPA and 11 alternatives at concentrations ranging from (0.1 - 25 µM) to assess toxicity. Analysis of global transcriptomic changes and a previously characterized estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) biomarker signature revealed that 9/11 chemicals were bioactive. One of the chemicals (2,4’-Bisphenol A) activated the ERα biomarker at the same concentration as BPA (i.e., 4,4’-BPA) but was deemed to be more potent as it induced global transcriptomic changes at lower concentrations. These results are addressing data gaps in ongoing screening assessments to identify BPA alternatives with hazard potential and are helping to identify potential candidates to serve as safer alternatives.
