Project description:Perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS) is a widespread environmental pollutant with a long half-life and clearly negative outcomes on metabolic diseases such as fatty liver and diabetes. Male and female Cyp2b-null and humanized CYP2B6-transgenic (hCYP2B6-Tg) mice were treated with 0, 1, or 10 mg/kg/day PFOS for 21 days, and surprisingly it was found that PFOS was retained at greater concentrations in the serum and liver of hCYP2B6-Tg mice than Cyp2b-null mice with greater differences in the females. Thus, Cyp2b-null and hCYP2B6-Tg mice provide new models for investigating individual mechanisms for PFOS bioaccumulation and toxicity. Overt toxicity was greater in hCYP2B6-Tg mice (especially females) as measured by mortality; however, steato-sis occurred more readily in Cyp2b-null mice despite the lower PFOS liver concentrations. Tar-geted lipidomics and transcriptomics from PFOS treated Cyp2b-null and hCYP2B6-Tg mouse livers were performed and compared to PFOS retention and serum markers of toxicity by PCA. Several oxylipins, including prostaglandins, thromboxanes, and docosahexaenoic acid metabo-lites are associated or inversely associated with PFOS toxicity. Both lipidomics and tran-scriptomics indicate PFOS toxicity is associated with PPAR activity in all models. GO terms as-sociated with reduced steatosis were sexually dimorphic with lipid metabolism and transport increased in females and circadian rhythm associated genes increased in males. However, we can rule out that steatosis was initially protective from PFOS toxicity. Moreover, several transporters are associated with increased retention probably due to increased uptake. The strongest associa-tions are the organic anion transport proteins (Oatp1a4-6) genes and a long-chain fatty acid transport protein (fatp1), enriched in female hCYP2B6-Tg mice. PFOS uptake was also reduced in cultured murine hepatocytes by OATP inhibitors. The role of OATP1A6 and FATP1 in PFOS transport has not been tested. In summary, Cyp2b-null and hCYP2B6-Tg mice provided unique models for estimating the importance of novel mechanisms in PFOS retention and toxicity.

Project description:Recently it was discovered that the perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) detected in wildlife, such as fish-eating birds, had a greater proportion of linear PFOS (L-PFOS) than the manufactured technical product (T-PFOS), which contains linear and branched isomers. This suggests toxicological studies based on T-PFOS data may inaccurately assess exposure risk to wildlife. To determine if PFOS effects were influenced by isomer content we compared the transcriptional profiles of cultured chicken embryonic hepatocytes (CEH) exposed to either L-PFOS or T-PFOS using Agilent microarrays. At equal concentrations (10 μM), T-PFOS altered the expression of more transcripts (340, >1.5 fold change, p<0.05) compared to L-PFOS (130 transcripts). Higher concentrations of L-PFOS (40 μM) were also less transcriptionally disruptive (217 transcripts) than T-PFOS at 10 μM. Functional analysis showed that L-PFOS and T-PFOS affected genes involved in lipid metabolism, hepatic system development and cellular growth and proliferation. Pathway and interactome analysis suggested that genes may be affected through the RXR receptor, oxidative stress response, TP53 signaling, MYC signaling, Wnt/β-catenin signaling and PPARγ and SREBP receptors. In all functional categories and pathways examined, the response elicited by T-PFOS was greater than L-PFOS. These data show that T-PFOS elicits a greater transcriptional response in CEH than L-PFOS alone and demonstrates the importance of considering the isomer-specific toxicological properties of PFOS when assessing exposure risk. Reference Design. Reference = pool of equal parts of all control and treated samples. Control groups and 5 treatment groups. Control samples were CEH exposed DMSO only (vehicle solvent). Treatments were: CEH exposed to 10 uM L-PFOS, 40 uM L-PFOS, 10 uM T-PFOS, 0.03 nM TCDD and 1 nM TCDD.

Project description:This series was used for two studies: Study 1: Recently it was discovered that the perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) detected in wildlife, such as fish-eating birds, had a greater proportion of linear PFOS (L-PFOS) than the manufactured technical product (T-PFOS), which contains linear and branched isomers. This suggests toxicological studies based on T-PFOS data may inaccurately assess exposure risk to wildlife. To determine if PFOS effects were influenced by isomer content we compared the transcriptional profiles of cultured chicken embryonic hepatocytes (CEH) exposed to either L-PFOS or T-PFOS using Agilent microarrays. At equal concentrations (10 ?M), T-PFOS altered the expression of more transcripts (340, >1.5 fold change, p<0.05) compared to L-PFOS (130 transcripts). Higher concentrations of L-PFOS (40 ?M) were also less transcriptionally disruptive (217 transcripts) than T-PFOS at 10 ?M. Functional analysis showed that L-PFOS and T-PFOS affected genes involved in lipid metabolism, hepatic system development and cellular growth and proliferation. Pathway and interactome analysis suggested that genes may be affected through the RXR receptor, oxidative stress response, TP53 signaling, MYC signaling, Wnt/?-catenin signaling and PPAR? and SREBP receptors. In all functional categories and pathways examined, the response elicited by T-PFOS was greater than L-PFOS. These data show that T-PFOS elicits a greater transcriptional response in CEH than L-PFOS alone and demonstrates the importance of considering the isomer-specific toxicological properties of PFOS when assessing exposure risk. Study 2: In many bird populations, concentrations of perfluoroundanoic acid (PFUdA) are second only to perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) among perfluoroalkyl compounds. Here, we used microarrays to characterize the transcriptional response of cultured chicken embryonic hepatocytes (CEH) to PFUdA and compared it to the response induced by PFOS. At non-cytotoxic doses, PFUdA (1 or 10 ?M) disrupted the expression of more genes (854) than PFOS (447, at 10 or 40 ?M) in CEH. Using functional, pathway and interactome analysis we identified several potentially important modes-of-action (MoAs) for PFUdA and some associated key events, including the suppression of the acute-phase response (APR) through peroxisome proliferator activated receptor activation. We then measured the expression of five APR genes, fibrinogen alpha (fga), fibrinogen gamma (fgg), thrombin (f2), plasminogen (plg), and protein C (proC), in the liver of chicken embryos exposed in ovo to PFUdA. The expression of fga, f2, and proC were down-regulated in embryo livers (100 or 1000 ng/g, p<0.1) as predicted from microarray analysis, whereas fibrinogen gamma (fgg) was up-regulated and plg was not significantly affected. Our results demonstrate PFUdA is more transcriptionally disruptive than PFOS in CEH. Additionally, we identified APR suppression as a potentially important and environmentally relevant MoA. These findings suggest in ovo exposure of birds to PFUdA could lead to post-hatch developmental deficiencies, such as impaired immune response.

Project description:The effect of perfluoroalkyl sulfonates on lipoprotein metabolism was investigated in APOE*3-Leiden.CETP mice with a humanized lipoprotein profile. Perfluorohexane sulfonate and perfluorooctane sulfonate markedly reduced both plasma TG and TC by decreasing nonHDL-C and HDL-C accompanied by a reduction in apoAI. Mechanistic studies showed that these effects were mainly caused by impaired lipoprotein production. Male E3L.CETP mice on a C57Bl/6 background were fed a Western-type diet, containing 0.25% (w/w) cholesterol, 1% (w/w) corn oil and 14% (w/w) bovine fat (Western-type diet) (Hope Farms, Woerden, The Netherlands) for 4 to 6 weeks in three independent experiments. Upon randomization according to total plasma cholesterol (TC) and TG levels, mice received the Western-type diet without or with PFBS (30 mg/kg/day), PFHxS (6 mg/kg/day) or PFOS (3 mg/kg/day) during 4-6 weeks. The effects of these PFAS on plasma lipids and lipoproteins were determined. In addition, PFAS levels were determined in plasma and livers were isolated for hepatic lipid analysis and hepatic gene expression analysis using an Affymetrix technology platform and Affymetrix GeneChip® mouse genome 430 2.0 arrays.

Project description:Perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) is a persistent, bio-accumulative pollutant that has been used for the last 60+ years in numerous industrial and commercial applications. In mice, PFOS administration is known to induce hepatomegaly and hepatic steatosis. The aim of the present study was to evaluate potential PFOS and diet interactions and explore the mechanism of PFOS induced liver lipid accumulation. Prior to PFOS administration, mice were fed either a standard chow diet (SD) or 60% kCal high fat diet (HFD) for 4 weeks to establish significant body weight increase. After 4 weeks of diet acclimation, the treatment groups received 0.0003% PFOS in diet for an additional 10 weeks. In addition, a subset of the mice fed HFD were switched to a SD (H-SD) to mimic weight-loss induced improvement of hepatic steatosis. A total of six treatment groups: i) SD, ii) HSD, iii) HFD (H), iv) SD +PFOS(SDP), v) H-SD +PFOS (HSDP), and vi) HFD +PFOS (HP) were included. PFOS and lipid concentrations were measured in both serum and liver. Relative liver mRNA expression was determined by targeted bead array and proteins were quantified using untargeted mass spectrometry. PFOS exposure increased liver weight, and in the HFD increased liver triglycerides and liver cholesterol content. Gene and protein expression in the liver demonstrated that PFOS exposure induced lipid utilization and xenobiotic metabolism pathways, and in a HFD, induced lipid synthesis. The data suggests that PFOS exposure acts on lipid utilization genes and exacerbates hepatic steatosis in mice fed a HFD.

Project description:PFOS, a member of the chemical group known as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), is a well-documented environmental contaminant. Its high bioaccumulation potential and long elimination half-life can disrupt multiple biological pathways negatively affecting human health. The gastrointestinal tract (GI) is directly exposed to environmental pollutants via contaminated drinking water and food, potentially influencing intestinal homeostasis under both physiological and pathological conditions. Although some studies have highlighted the potential role of PFOS in tumor development, scientific literature on PFOS exposure in the GI is limited and the association between this environmental pollutant and GI-associated diseases remains to be determined. Therefore, this study aims to delineate the effects of PFOS on normal intestinal cells. The effect of PFOS on gene expression profiles was assessed through RNAseq analysis conducted on the intestinal tissue of C57BL/6 mice. Through RNAseq analysis, we identified the top pathways upregulated by PFOS as cancer, lipid metabolism and immune system. The KEGG analysis further highlighted significant gene enrichment in pro-oncogenic signaling pathways, including NOTCH, WNT/β-catenin and TGF-β. The RNAseq, q-RT-PCR and western blot analyses of normal intestinal tissues revealed that PFOS exposure leads to downregulation of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-Coa synthase 2 (HMGCS2), a key enzyme in the synthesis of β-hydroxybutyrate (βHB), a critical ketogenic molecule. In summary, our data suggests that PFOS may induce GI pathological changes that can increase the risk of CRC development. We identified that downregulation of ketogenesis and upregulation of lipid metabolism are the major effects of PFOS exposure in intestinal epithelium.

Project description:To investigate the role of human CYP2B6 in vivo under high-fat diet conditions, we compared our previously developed Cyp2b triple knockout mouse lacking Cyp2b9, Cyp2b10, and Cyp2b13 (via CRISPER/Cas9; Cyp2b-null), to our newly developed humanized-CYP2B6-transgenic (hCYP2B6-Tg) mouse model (on a Cyp2b-null background). hCYP2B6-Tg and Cyp2b-null mice were fed a high-fat diet consisting of 60% fat for 16 weeks. RNA was extracted from the livers of female and male mice from both treatment groups and used for RNA seqencing. RNAseq and in gene ontology (GO) analysis indicate human CYP2B6 is important in protein processing and phosphorylation, hepatic circadian regulation, and lipid metabolism under HFD conditions.Circadian rhythm-associated genes were up-regulated in HFD-fed hCYP2B6-Tg mice compared to Cyp2b-null mice. Circadian regulation plays an important role in liver metabolism and metabolic disease. In addition, female hCYP2B6-Tg mice had several down-regulated genes involved in lipid metabolism compared to Cyp2b-null mice, notably Angptl8 (logFC = -1.24), a critical modulator of lipid metabolism that has been associated with metabolic disease. Genes identified by RNAseq analysis may contribute to the overall healthier metabolic profile of HFD-fed humanized mice compared to Cyp2b-null mice.

Project description:Perfluorooctanoic sulfonate (PFOS) is difficult to degrade and tends to accumulate in the body, which causes widespread concern. The expression of genes related to endometrial receptivity and the differentiation of human endometrial stromal cells (hESCs) were assessed in this study concerning PFOS. In this study, we investigated the effect of PFOS exposure on endometrial tolerance by cell and animal experiments. The activity against endometrial mesenchymal cells was significantly reduced by PFOS intervention, and the apoptosis flow assay results showed that PFOS significantly promoted cell death in a concentration-dependent manner. Transmission electron microscopy results revealed mitochondrial damage in the PFOS-intervened group, and WB results showed that the expression levels of endometrial tolerance-related proteins Homeobox A10 (HOXA10) and integrin beta3 (ITGB3) were decreased, and the expression level of Forkhead box O1 (FOXO1) protein was increased. Animal studies have shown that PFOS can affect the locomotor cycle in mice, and significant damage to pinopodes morphology was observed after PFOS exposure administration. In the present study, we found that PFOS may synergistically affect the viability of endometrial mesenchymal stromal cells through accumulation in vivo, and that PFOS may contribute to the failure of embryo implantation by affecting mitochondrial function and consequently endometrial permissive sites.

Project description:Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are widespread in the environment and bioaccumulate in organisms. Previously we observed hyperactivity of zebrafish larvae exposed to a mixture of POPs based on average blood levels from the Scandinavian population and identified perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) as the driving agent for the behavioral changes. We exposed zebrafish larvae from 6 to 96 h post fertilization to the same mixture of POPs in two concentrations or a single PFOS exposure (0.3 and 2.06mg/L) and performed behavioral tests and transcriptomics analysis. Results confirmed previous observations that exposure to POPs and PFOS causes hyperactivity and higher anxiety levels. Transcriptomic analysis showed upregulation of transcripts related to muscle contraction. Muscle contraction is highly regulated by the availability of calcium in the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Ingenuity pathway analysis showed that one of the affected pathways in larvae exposed to the POPs mixture and PFOS was calcium signalling via the activation of the ryanodine receptors. We also found effect on lipid metabolism in those larvae exposed to the lower concentration of PFOS. By using omics technology, we observed that the altered behavioral pattern in exposed zebrafish larvae might be controlled directly by mechanisms affecting muscle function rather than from mechanisms connected to neurotoxicity.
