Project description:We exposed worker bumble bees to sodium selenate or control through diet. We then used LCMS untargeted metabolomics on pools of 3 bees each.

Project description:In this study, we modeled early life air pollution exposure using C57BL/6J male mice on a controlled chow diet, exposed to real-world inhaled concentrated PM2.5 (~10x ambient level/ ~60-120g/m3) or filtered air (FA) over 14 weeks. We investigated PM2.5 effects on phenotype, transcriptome and chromatin accessibility, compared the effects with a prototypical high-fat diet (HFD) stimulus, and examined the effects of cessation of exposure on reversibility of phenotype/genotype.

Project description:In mammals, the final maturation and transport of gametes, fertilization and early embryo development take place in the oviducts. Bisphenol S (BPS) is a substitute for bisphenol A in plastic manufacturing and, as a potential endocrine disruptor, may alter the oviduct physiology. Furthermore, bisphenols are fat-soluble and can accumulate in fatty tissues. The objective of this study was to assess the effect of a daily dietary exposure to BPS combined with a contrasted diet on the oviduct fluid (OF) proteome using an ovine model. Eighty adult cyclic ewes were allotted to four groups (20/group): over-fed consuming in their diet 50 µg/kg/day of BPS, under-fed consuming 50 µg/kg/day of BPS, and non-exposed controls in each diet group. After three months, the mean body condition score and plasma levels of glucose and non-esterified fatty acids were significantly higher in over- than in under-fed females. The proteins in collected OF samples (50 µg) were analyzed by nanoliquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (nanoLC-MS/MS). Overall, 1563 proteins were identified, among which 848 were quantified. Principal component analysis of data revealed a clear discrimination of samples according to the diet and a segregation between BPS-exposed and non-exposed females in over-fed ewes. Hierarchical clustering of differentially abundant proteins (DAPs) identified two clusters of 101 and 78 DAPs according to the diet. Pairwise comparisons between groups revealed a stronger effect of BPS in over- than in under-fed females (70 vs. 24 DAPs) and a stronger effect of the diet in BPS-exposed than non-exposed females (56 vs. 36 DAPs). Functional analysis of DAPs showed an enrichment in metabolic processes, immune system, cell response to stress, and reproductive processes. This work highlights for the first time the important impact of BPS on the oviduct proteome with bigger effects in over- than underweight females.

Project description:<p>The study was initially designed as a longitudinal cohort study of cardiovascular effects of particulate exposure. Participants were boilermaker construction workers who were exposed to particulate matter (PM) component (e.g. a focus on metal constituents) while performing welding, grinding or cutting work in the welding plants. Participants were followed up approximately half a year for a non-work day and a work day from 1999 to 2012, and blood, urine, blood pressure, as well as real-time PM2.5 samples were collected from each participant. In this specific study, we conducted epigenome-wide DNA methylation profiling through Center for Inherited Disease Research (CIDR) services using Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450, which will give us more compete epigenome-wide coverage. Genome-wide DNA methylation was carried out on paired samples pre- and post-work shift at a welding apprentice school. With transcriptomic and metabolomic data already generated from the same panel study, we will be able to conduct integrative analysis to gain insights into mechanisms of gene-metal interactions and maximize the probability of finding genes functionally relevant to PM-induced adverse cardiovascular outcomes. </p>

Project description:Prenatal exposure to synthetic corticosteroids can significantly alter postnatal development through changes in neurotransmitters and their receptors, and thus having long-lasting behavioral effects. Some of these changes have been observed in animal experiments, others also in humans prenatally exposed to synthetic corticosteroids. Here, we focused on transcriptomic changes within the prefrontal cortex of female rats prenatally exposed to either betamethasone or saline. The transcriptome has been assessed by novel computational tools to determine complex changes that may have life-long effects on phenotype, i.e., behavior. We analyzed how composition, topology and modulatory networks of the genomic fabric of the dopaminergic, GABAergic, and glutamatergic synapse (the transcriptome of the most interconnected and stably expressed gene network responsible for specific transmission) are afected by the prenatal exposure to corticosteroids and postnatal ketamine-induced seizures. One sex (F) x two prenatal exposures (B = betamethasone, S = saline) x two postnatal treatments (K = ketamine, S = saline). Biological replicates: 4 FSS, 4 FBS, 4 FBK.

Project description:Vinyl chloride (VC) monomer is a volatile organic compound commonly used in industry to produce polyvinyl chloride (PVC). At high exposure levels, VC causes hepatic angiosarcoma and toxicant-associated steatohepatitis. However, our group has recently shown that lower exposure levels (i.e., < OSHA exposure limits), which do not directly damage the liver, enhance injury caused by a Western diet (WD). Although these lower exposure levels are currently considered 'safe,' it is unknown if the long-term impact of transient low-concentration VC enhances the risk of liver cancer development. Low-concentration VC is especially a concern given that fatty liver disease is in and of itself a risk factor for the development of liver cancer. To evaluate the long-term effects of VC exposure C57Bl/6J, mice were fed WD or control diet (CD) for 1 year. During the first 12 weeks of feeding, mice were also exposed to VC via inhalation at concentrations below the current OSHA limit (<1 ppm) or air for 6 hours/day, 5 days/week. During the remaining 9 months of feeding, mice were not exposed to VC. Feeding WD for 1 year caused significant hepatic injury, including steatohepatitis and moderate fibrosis, which was exacerbated by VC. Additionally, VC increased the number of tumors ranging from moderately to poorly differentiated HCC. Transcriptomic analysis demonstrated VC-induced changes in metabolic but also ribosomal processes. Epitranscriptomic analysis showed a VC-induced shift of the modification pattern that has been associated with metabolic disease, mitochondrial dysfunction and cancer. These data indicate that VC sensitizes the liver to other stressors (e.g., WD), resulting in enhanced tumorigenesis. These data raise concerns about a potential interaction between VC exposure and WD. Furthermore, it also emphasizes that current OSHA safety restrictions may be insufficient to account for other factors that can influence hepatotoxicity.

Project description:In this time course pregnant CD-1 (outbred) dams were exposed to MeHg as monomethylmercuric chloride intraperitoneally on 9 d.p.c. The test dose of 5.0 mg/kg MeHg was selected as a dose with an estimated 20% increased risk for encephalopathy in term fetuses, with no evidence of maternal toxicosis. Sampling intervals ranged from 1.5h to 24.0h post-exposure. All measurements were on RNA from the embryonic forebrain (prosencephalon) using contemporous control embryos as a reference.

Project description:In this study we analyzed the effects of lead-exposure up hippocampal gene expression in males and females exposed to 0ppm, 250ppm and 750ppm lead during two different developmental periods, perinatal (in utero through to weaning at PND21) and postnatal (PND0-PND45). All tissue was taken at PND 55. We used affymetrix Rat Gene 1.0ST arrays to obtain global gene expression data from each animal, with a group size of 4 for all conditions (Total number of Arrays = 40)
