Bisphenol A (BPA) is a xenobiotic endocrine disrupting chemical. In vitro and in vivo studies indicated that BPA alters endocrine-metabolic pathways in adipose tissue increasing the risk of developing metabolic disorders. BPA effects on human adipocytes, specifically in children, are poorly investig...
A bacterial strain identified as Cupriavidus basilensis uses aromatic compounds as carbon and energy sources and has a high capability to transform the structurally related and hormonally active substance bisphenol A (BPA). Biphenyl-grown and phenol-grown cells converted BPA to five products within ...
Human ovarian adenocarcinoma SKOV3 cells were exposed to BPA (10 or 100 nM) or 0.1% DMSO for 24 h,and then total RNA was extracted from cells using Trizol reagent. Sequencing libraries were generated using NEBNext UltraTM RNA Library Prep Kit for Illumina (NEB) following manufacturer’s recommendatio...
Background: Exposure to the endocrine-disrupting chemical bisphenol A (BPA) is correlated with obesity and promotes adipogenesis of human preadipocytes into mature adipocytes. However, the mechanism of action of BPA-induced human adipogenesis in vitro remains to be fully characterized. Methods: In t...
