Specification
Phthalates, such as bis(2-butoxyethyl) phthalate (BBOP), are common plasticizers widely found in the environment. The study evaluated the effects of BBOP on fetal Leydig cell development following in utero exposure to rats.
Assessment methods and results
· During the study, pregnant Sprague Dawley dams were divided randomly into 6 groups and administered BBOP through gavage at varying doses (0, 10, 100, 250, 500, and 1000 mg/kg body weight/day) from gestational day (GD) 14 to GD 21.
· Seven out of the eight dams in the 1000 mg/kg BBOP group passed away before delivery, while 12 out of the 20 dams in the 500 mg/kg BBOP group experienced complete litter loss.
· BBOP at the 500 mg/kg dose resulted in a significant decrease in both maternal and male offspring body weight, as well as a decline in serum testosterone levels and anogenital distance of male fetuses on GD 21. Fetal Leydig cell proliferation and numbers were notably increased at 500 mg/kg, with abnormal aggregation observed at 250 and 500 mg/kg.
· The expression of various genes related to Leydig and Sertoli cells was also affected by BBOP exposure, with a reduction in the expression of certain genes and an increase in others. Furthermore, the phosphorylation of AKT1, AKT2, and ERK1/2 was significantly decreased by BBOP exposure. These findings suggest that in utero exposure to BBOP can disrupt fetal Leydig cell development potentially through the inhibition of AKT1, AKT2, and ERK1/2 phosphorylation.
