Metabolomics Workbench ST000686 - GNPS - Lipodomics and Gestational bisphenol A (BPA) exposure
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Gestational BPA exposure in sheep induces metabolic phenotype in sheep characterized by peripheral insulin resistance and increased adipocyte size. Because insulin sensitivity can be regulated by various agents including free fatty acids (FFA), we hypothesize that gestational BPA exposure alters circulating FFA inducing dyslipidemia, a marker of metabolic disorder. Because saturated FFA is associated with insulin resistance, determination of the FFA profile in these species aid in understanding the underlying mechanism. Additionally, because of the non-monotonic nature of responses to BPA exposure dose response studies are also needed. This study will therefore assess plasma lipid profile in sheep exposed to three different doses of BPA prenatally and compared with untreated control animals
