The effects of di-butyl phthalate exposure from medications on human sperm RNA among men

ABSTRACT: Endocrine disruptors, such as phthalates, are suspected of affecting reproductive function. The Mesalamine and Reproductive Health Study (MARS) was designed to address the physiological effect of in-vivo phthalate exposure on male reproduction in patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). As part of this effort, sperm RNA profiles as an effect of exposure to DBP were longitudinally assessed using a cross-over cross-back design of binary, high or background, levels of DBP. As the DBP level was altered, numerous sperm RNA elements were differentially expressed, and suggest that exposure to or removal from high DBP produces effects that require longer than one spermatogenic cycle to resolve. In comparison, small RNAs are minimally affected by DBP exposure. While initial study medication (high or background) implicates different biological pathways, initiation on the high-DBP condition activated oxidative stress and DNA damage pathways. Using ejaculated sperm, this work provides insight into the male germline’s response to phthalate exposure.

Transcriptomic analysis reveals potential mechanisms of toxicity in a combined exposure to dibutyl phthalate and diisobutyl phthalate in zebrafish (Danio rerio) ovary

Project description:Phthalate esters (PAEs), a notable plasticizer, could be prolific contaminants in the aquatic environment, and have been shown to induce reproductive toxicity. However, studies concerning the toxicity towards aquatic species are based upon individual chemicals and the combined toxicity of PAEs to aquatic organisms remains unclear. The aim of this study was to explore the potential toxic mechanism of combined exposure to dibutyl phthalate (DBP) and diisobutyl phthalate (DiBP) in adult female zebrafish ovarian. Zebrafish were exposed to DBP, DiBP and their mixtures for 30 days, and their effects on ovarian histology, plasma sex hormones and ovarian transcriptomics were investigated. The plasma estradiol (E2) levels were significantly decreased 38.9% for DBP-1133 exposure group and 41.0% for DiBP-1038 exposure group. The percentages of late/mature oocyte were also significantly decreased 17.3% in DBP-1133 exposure and 16.2% in DiBP-1038 exposure, while those in combined exposure were not significantly affected. Nonetheless, transcriptome sequencing discovered 2564 differential expressed genes (DEGs) in zebrafish ovary after exposure to the mixtures. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis identified that those DEGs were involved in the neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction, GnRH, progesterone-mediated oocyte maturation, oocyte meiosis and steroid hormone biosynthesis signaling pathways. These results revealed that combined exposure showed potential reproductive toxicity at the molecular level.

Evaluation of the potential toxicity mechanism of single and combined exposure of dibutyl phthalate and diisobutyl phthalate to zebrafish (Danio rerio) testis based on transcriptomic analysis

Project description:Aquatic organisms are generally exposed to a mixture of phthalate esters (PAEs) that have been shown to induce reproductive toxicity. However, their potential toxicity mechanisms to aquatic organisms remain unclear. Here male zebrafish were exposed to dibutyl phthalate (DBP), diisobutyl phthalate (DiBP) and their mixtures for 30 days, and their effects on plasma sex hormones, testis histology and testis transcriptomics were investigated. DBP, DiBP and their mixtures could induce the disequilibrating ratio of testosterone (T) and plasma estradiol (E2) in plasma. The percentage of spermatozoa (Sz) was significantly decreased by 30.6% under DBP-1133 exposure and 27.8% under Mix-3 exposure, and widen intercellular spaces appeared under DiBP-1038 exposure. Transcriptome sequencing revealed 2795 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the DBP-1133 exposure group, 1613 DEGs in the DiBP-1038 exposure group and 4570 DEGs in the Mix-3 exposure group, indicating that the toxicity of combined exposure was higher than that of single exposure. Cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction was associated with the toxicity mechanism of DBP, DiBP and Mix. While GnRH signaling pathway and MAPK signaling pathway were related to the toxicity mechanism of DBP. ECM-receptor interaction, steroid hormone biosynthesis, retinol metabolism and PPAR signaling pathway were associated with the toxicity mechanism of DiBP and Mix.

Fetal Rat Testis mRNA Expression after 50 mg/kg Dibutyl Phthalate Exposure

Project description:High dose level dibutyl phthalate (DBP) exposure of fetal rat testes in vivo inhibits testosterone production (i.e. endocrine disruption). Here, fetal testis mRNA levels were profiled following exposure to a DBP dose level that did not significantly reduce testosterone levels. The goal was to identify the constellation of gene expression changes that do not correlate with endocrine disruption. Fischer 344 rats were exposed via oral gavage of the dam to vehicle (corn oil) or 50 mg/kg (body weight) DBP daily from gestational day (GD) 12 to 20. The day after mating was defined as gestational day 0. Six hours after the final exposure on GD20, fetal testes were dissected and mRNA levels quantified using Affymetrix Rat Expression 230 2.0 microarrays.

Abiraterone acetate and di-n-butyl phthalate (DBP) response in a human fetal testis xenograft bioassay

Project description:The goal of this study was to determine the effects of a well-characterized anti-androgen, abiraterone acetate, and a suspected human anti-androgen, di-n-butyl phthalate (DBP) on the androgenic function of human fetal testis. Human fetal testis was xenografted into the renal subcapsular space of castrated male athymic nude mice. Hosts were treated with hCG to stimulate testosterone production in the xenografts, and were concurrently treated with either abiraterone acetate or DBP. While abiraterone acetate (14 d, 75 mg/kg/d p.o.) dramatically reduced testosterone and the weights of androgen-sensitive host organs, DBP (14 d, 500 mg/kg/d p.o.) had no effect on androgenic endpoints. Three paired analyses were performed using the LIMMA package in R (commands lmfit and eBayes), with the Benjamini-Hochberg correction for multiple comparisons (Smyth 2005): vehicle-treated xenografts vs. unimplanted testis (n=5), abiraterone-treated xenografts vs. matched control xenografts (n=3), and DBP-treated xenografts vs. matched control xenografts (n=3). There were significant differences in gene expression between grafted and ungrafted samples, including dramatic upregulation of microRNAs. Gene expression analysis also showed that abiraterone decreased expression of genes related to cell differentiation, while DBP induced expression of oxidative stress response genes and decreased expression of factors related to embryonic development. 17 xenograft samples were analyzed, including 5 unimplanted samples, 6 vehicle treated xenografts, 3 abiraterone acetate-treated xenografts, and 3 DBP-treated xenografts. Samples were paired (derived from the same donor tissue) for each comparison: vehicle vs. unimplanted (n=5), abiraterone vs. vehicle (n=3), and DBP vs. vehicle (n=3).

First identification of a large set of serine hydrolases by activity-based protein profiling in dibutyl phthalate-exposed zebrafish larvae

Project description:Despite the involvement of several serine hydrolases (SHs) in the metabolism of xenobiotics such as dibutyl phthalate (DBP), no study has focused on mapping this enzyme class in zebrafish, a model organism frequently used in ecotoxicology. Here, we survey and identify active SHs in zebrafish larvae and search for biological markers of SH type after exposition to DBP. Zebrafish were exposed to 0, 5, and 100 µg/L DBP from 4 to 120 h post-fertilization. A significant decrease in vitellogenin expression level of about 2-fold compared to the control was found in larvae exposed to 100 µg/L DBP for 120h. The first comprehensive profiling of active SHs in zebrafish proteome was achieved with an activity-based protein profiling (ABPP) approach. Among 49 SHs identified with high confidence, one was the carboxypeptidase ctsa overexpressed in larvae exposed to 100 µg/L DBP for 120h. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that a carboxypeptidase has been identified as deregulated following exposure to DBP. The overall results indicate that targeted proteomics approaches such as ABPP can therefore be an asset for understanding the mechanism of action related to xenobiotics in ecotoxicology.

Microarray analysis of di-n-butyl phthalate and 17α ethinyl-oestradiol responses in three-spined stickleback testes

Project description:The data comes from a study, where three-spined sticklebacks (Gasterosteus aculeatus) were exposed to di-n-butyl phthalate (DBP) and 17α ethinyl-oestradiol (EE2) at nominal concentrations 35 μg/L and 40 ng/L, respectively, for four days. The aim of the study was to obtain insight into the acute transcriptional responses putatively associated with endocrine disruption. RNA samples from the testes of eight individuals fish per treatment (including solvent controls, exposed only to DMSO) were used in the microarray analysis, covering the expression of approximately 21000 genes.

Mono(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate induces transcriptomic changes in placental cells based on concentration, fetal sex, and trophoblast cell type

Project description:Phthalates are ubiquitous plasticizer chemicals found in consumer products. Exposure to phthalates during pregnancy has been associated with adverse pregnancy and birth outcomes and differences in placental gene expression in human studies. The objective of this research was to evaluate global changes in placental gene expression via RNA sequencing in two placental cell models following exposure to the phthalate metabolite mono(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (MEHP). HTR-8/SVneo and primary syncytiotrophoblast cells were exposed to three concentrations (1, 90, 180µM) of MEHP for 24 hours with DMSO (0.1%) as a vehicle control. mRNA and lncRNAs were quantified using paired end RNA sequencing, followed by identification of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and significant KEGG pathways and enriched transcription factors (TFs). MEHP caused gene expression changes across all concentrations for HTR-8/SVneo and primary syncytiotrophoblast cells. Sex-stratified analysis of primary cells identified different patterns of sensitivity in response to MEHP dose by sex, with male placentas being more responsive to MEHP exposure. Pathway analysis identified 11 KEGG pathways significantly associated with at least one concentration in both cell types. Four ligand-inducible nuclear hormone TFs (PPARG, PPARD, ESR1, AR) were enriched in at least three treatment groups. Overall, we demonstrated that MEHP differentially affects placental gene expression based on concentration, fetal sex, and trophoblast cell type. This study confirms prior studies as enrichment of nuclear hormone TFs were concordant with previously published mechanisms of phthalate disruption, and generates new hypotheses, as we identified many pathways and genes not previously linked to phthalate exposure.

Transcriptomic responses predict the toxic effect of parental combined exposure to DBP and DiBP on the early development of zebrafish offspring

Project description:Dibutyl phthalate (DBP) and diisobutyl phthalate (DiBP) have been reported to exhibit reproductive toxicity and may pose a threat to their offspring. However, the combined effect of DBP and DiBP on offspring remains unclear, especially for aquatic organisms. The aims of this study were to assess the effects of parental combined exposure to DBP and DiBP on early development of zebrafish offspring, and to explore the potential molecular mechanisms involved. The early developmental indicators and transcriptomic profiles of F1 larvae were examined after parental exposure to DBP, DiBP and their mixtures (Mix) for 30 days. Results showed that parental exposure to DBP and DiBP, alone or in combination, resulted in increasing hatchability at 48 hpf and heart rate at 96 hpf, and affected the malformation and mortality in F1 larvae. Generalized linear model (GLM) indicated that the interactive effects between DBP and DiBP on the mortality and malformation of F1 larvae was antagonistic. The transcriptomic analysis predicted that the molecular mechanisms of parental combined exposure were different from those of either chemical alone, disruption of the molecular function involving unfolded protein binding, E-box binding and photoreceptor activity in F1 larvae could be the mechanism of action after parental combined exposure.
