Project description:Sodium p-perfluorous nonenoxybenzene sulfonate (OBS) has been widely applied as a novel PFOS alternative in many industrial fields. However, our knowledge about its toxic effects is limited. In this study, we reported the RNA-seq data for zebrafish exposed with perfluoroalkyl substance PFOS and its alternative OBS. It was used for evaluating the PFOS and OBS induced toxic effects at RNA level to zebrafish. The transcriptome analysis showed that the expression of most immune-related genes was upregulated in both PFOS and OBS treatment groups, but the latter was to a lesser extent. Simultaneously, PFOS exposure blocked the translational process represented by a significant decrease in the expression of eukaryotic translation elongation factor eef1, while the expression of other translation elongation factors did not increase to compensate. This study provides the toxic effects at transcription level when zebrafish exposed with PFOS and OBS.

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: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:Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) has been manufactured for over 50 years in increasing quantities and has been used for several industrial and commercial aims. Due to the persistence and the bioaccumulation of this pollutant, it can be found worldwide in wildlife and humans. Biochemical effects of PFOS exposure are mainly studied in mammalian model species and information about effects on fish species remain largely scarce. This lack of toxicity data points out that there is an urgent need for the mechanistic molecular understanding of the mode of action of this pollutant. In the present study, common carp (Cyprinus carpio) was exposed through water for 14 days at concentrations of 0.1; 0.5 and 1 mg/l PFOS. Liver was selected as target tissue. Custom microarrays were constructed from cDNA libraries obtained with Suppression Subtractive Hybridization-Polymerase chain reaction (SSH-PCR) experiments. Microarray data revealed that the expression of several genes in the liver was influenced by PFOS exposure and real-time PCR was used to confirm these gene expression changes. The affected genes were mainly involved in energy metabolism, reproduction and stress response. Furthermore, the relative condition factor and the hepatosomatic index of the exposed fish were significantly lower after 14 days of exposure as well as the available glycogen reserves. At all levels of biological organization, indications of a trade-off between the metabolic cost of toxicant exposure on one hand and processes vital to the survival of the organism on the other hand were seen. Our results support the prediction that increases in energy expenditure negatively affects processes vital to the survival of an organism, such as growth. Keywords: PFOS, common carp, microarray, condition factor, energy reserves, metabolic cost There were 3 biological replicates for each exposure concentration. For each biological replicate control versus exposed hybridizations were carried out. The mean of the biological replicates was calculated for the differentially expressed genes.

Project description:Perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS) has been widely used in a variety of industrial and commercial applications as a surfactant and stain repellent. PFOS causes liver damage (including liver tumors) in experimental animals, primarily via interaction with PPARa and CAR/PXR. We investigated the involvement of microRNAs (miRNAs) in PFOS-induced hepatotoxicity, and mechanisms involved in abnormal TH homeostasis, in the livers of adult male rats exposed in feed to 50 mg PFOS/kg diet for 28 days. PFOS-treated rats exhibited expected histopathological and clinical chemistry changes. Global gene expression changes were consistent with the involvement of PPARα and CAR/PXR in PFOS-induced effects. Thirty-eight miRNAs were significantly altered. Three members of the miR-200 family were the most increased, while miR-122 and miR-21 were the most decreased, in PFOS-treated relative to control rats. Expression of the miR-23b/27b/24 cluster also decreased in PFOS-treated animals. Pathway analysis of miRNAs and associated gene expression changes demonstrated enrichment of transcripts involved in epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT), which is a primary process involved in tumor cell motility and cancer metastasis. Liver expression analysis revealed transcripts that may mediate PFOS effects on thyroid hormone (TH) homeostasis including: activation of the CAR/PXR pathway, phase II/III enzymes, and deiodinase. These changes are consistent with low serum TH due to enhanced metabolic clearance of TH. However, most TH hepatic target genes were not altered in a manner consistent with reduced TH signalling; suggesting that PFOS exposure did not induce functional hypothyroidism. Collectively, PFOS-induced miRNA perturbations were strongly associated with EMT suggesting an important role for miRNAs in PFOS-induced hepatotoxicity. The work also provides novel insights into the effects of PFOS on TH homeostasis.

Project description:During pregnancy, perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) exposure is linked to increased risks of preeclampsia and fetal developmental complications. Although experimental and circumstantial data suggest that PFOS induces endothelial dysfunction, leading to decreased uterine arterial blood flow and gestational hypertension, the precise regulatory mechanisms responsible for this effect remain unknown. To address this issue, we treated human uterine artery endothelial cells (hUAECs) isolated from pregnant women with PFOS and conducted a comparative transcriptomic analyses to understand the underlying mechanism of PFOS-induced endothelial dysfunction.

The work also provides novel insights into the effects of PFOS on TH homeostasis. Four RNA samples from control and four from PFOS treated rats were labelled with Cyanine 5-CTP (Cy5) using Low Input Quick Amp Labelling kits (Agilent Technologies Inc.) following the manufacturer’s instruction. Universal rat reference total RNA (Agilent Technologies Inc.) was labelled with Cyanine 3-CTP (Cy3). Cy5-sample cRNA and Cy3-reference cRNA were hybridized to Agilent G4853A SurePrint G3 Rat GE 8 X 60K microarrays (Agilent Technologies Inc.) at 65°C overnight with Agilent hybridization solution. Slides were washed and scanned on an Agilent G2505B microarray scanner at 5 μm resolution, and the data were acquired with Agilent Feature Extraction software version 10.7.3.1. Microarray data quality was confirmed using Agilent Feature Extraction quality control metrics and in-house metrics (boxplots, cluster analyses, and MA plots to identify poor quality outlier arrays). All samples passed the quality control tests and were used for subsequent analyses.
