Project description:Endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are compounds that disrupt normal hormonal signaling. Examples are Xenoestrogens (e.g BPA) and Phytoestrogens (e.g isoflavones).

Project description:Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) can modulate estrogen receptor (ER) signaling by altering its transcriptional activity. To investigate these effects, we performed chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq) on cells treated with 5α-Dihydrotestosterone (5α-DTT), Flutamide, Estradiol, and Bisphenol B. This dataset includes raw sequencing reads, processed peak files, and metadata, enabling the identification of ER binding sites influenced by each EDC. Gene ontology (GO) analysis of ChIP-enriched regions revealed that these compounds affect key pathways, including antibody-dependent cytotoxicity, BMP signaling in cardiac induction, and hepatocyte growth factor receptor signaling. This dataset provides insights into EDC-induced transcriptional regulation and contributes to the understanding of their role in endocrine disruption.

Project description:Microbial community in aerobic granules
Project description:Exposures to environmental endocrine disruptors is growing and human contact in industrialized countries has become signficant and constant. We studied the effect of chronic exposure to two endocrine disrupting compound, bisphenol A and genistein, in an in vitro cell culture system. MCF7 cells were cultured for greater than 70 passages under normal (MCF7-F) conditions or with the addition of 50 nM BPA (MCF7-B) or GEN (MCF7-G). We performed transcriptome analysis of the all three cell lines in the absence of any estrogenic compounds and in the presence of 10 nM estradiol for 3 hours. The MCF7-F, B, G cell lines were starved of all estrogenic compounds by culturing the cells for 72 hours in phenol red free DMEM containing 5% charcoal/dextran treated FBS. Cells were then treated with either ethanol vehicle or 10 nM 17b-estradiol for 3 hours. Total RNA was harvested and utilized for whole genome analysis on the Affymetrix Human Trascriptome Array 2.0. The experiment was performed in duplicate
