Bisphenol S exposure induces cardiac remodeling and aggravates high-fat diet-induced cardiac hypertrophy in mice. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2024; 261:119781. [PMID: 39142458 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2024.119781] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2024] [Revised: 08/08/2024] [Accepted: 08/11/2024] [Indexed: 08/16/2024]
Abstract
Bisphenol S (BPS) is widely used in the manufacture products and increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases. The effect of the association between obesity and BPS on cardiac outcomes is still unknown. Male C57BL/6 mice were divided into standard chow diet (SC; 15 kJ/g), standard chow diet + BPS (SCB), high-fat diet (HF; 21 kJ/g), and high-fat diet + BPS (HFB). Over 12 weeks, the groups were exposed to BPS through drinking water (dose: 25 μg/Kg/day) and/or a HF diet. We evaluated: body mass (BM), total cholesterol, systolic blood pressure (SBP), left ventricle (LV) mass, and cardiac remodeling. In the SCB group, BM, total cholesterol, and SBP increase were augmented in relation to the SC group. In the HF and HFB groups, these parameters were higher than in the SC and SCB groups. Cardiac hypertrophy was evidenced by augmented LV mass and wall thickness, and ANP protein expression in all groups in comparison to the SC group. Only the HFB group had a thicker LV wall than SCB and HF groups, and increased cardiomyocyte area when compared with SC and SCB groups. Concerning cardiac fibrosis, SCB, HF, and HFB groups presented higher interstitial collagen area, TGFβ, and α-SMA protein expression than the SC group. Perivascular collagen area was increased only in the HF and HFB groups than SC group. Higher IL-6, TNFα, and CD11c protein expression in all groups than the SC group evidenced inflammation. All groups had elevated CD36 and PPARα protein expression in relation to the SC group, but only HF and HFB groups promoted cardiac steatosis with increased perilipin 5 protein expression than the SC group. BPS exposure alone promoted cardiac remodeling with pathological concentric hypertrophy, fibrosis, and inflammation. Diet-induced remodeling is aggravated when associated with BPS, with marked hypertrophy, alongside fibrosis, inflammation, and lipid accumulation.

Liu ZH, Xia Y, Ai S, Wang HL. Health risks of Bisphenol-A exposure: From Wnt signaling perspective. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2024; 251:118752. [PMID: 38513750 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2024.118752] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2023] [Revised: 03/15/2024] [Accepted: 03/18/2024] [Indexed: 03/23/2024]
Abstract
Human beings are routinely exposed to chronic and low dose of Bisphenols (BPs) due to their widely pervasiveness in the environment. BPs hold similar chemical structures to 17β-estradiol (E2) and thyroid hormone, thus posing threats to human health by rendering the endocrine system dysfunctional. Among BPs, Bisphenol-A (BPA) is the best-known and extensively studied endocrine disrupting compound (EDC). BPA possesses multisystem toxicity, including reproductive toxicity, neurotoxicity, hepatoxicity and nephrotoxicity. Particularly, the central nervous system (CNS), especially the developing one, is vulnerable to BPA exposure. This review describes our current knowledge of BPA toxicity and the related molecular mechanisms, with an emphasis on the role of Wnt signaling in the related processes. We also discuss the role of oxidative stress, endocrine signaling and epigenetics in the regulation of Wnt signaling by BPA exposure. In summary, dysfunction of Wnt signaling plays a key role in BPA toxicity and thus can be a potential target to alleviate EDCs induced damage to organisms.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We here explored whether perinatal nonylphenol (NP) exposure causes myocardial fibrosis (MF) during adulthood in offspring rats and determined the role of the TGF-β1/LIMK1 signaling pathway in NP-induced fibrosis in cardiac fibroblasts (CFs). METHODS AND RESULTS Histopathology revealed increased collagen deposition and altered fiber arrangement in the NP and isoproterenol hydrochloride (ISO) groups compared with the blank group. Systolic and diastolic functions were impaired. Western blotting and qRT-PCR demonstrated that the expression of central myofibrosis-related proteins (collagens Ι and ΙΙΙ, MMP2, MMP9, TGF-β1, α-SMA, IL-1β, and TGF-β1) and genes (Collagen Ι, Collagen ΙΙΙ, TGF-β1, and α-SMA mRNA) was upregulated in the NP and ISO groups compared with the blank group. The mRNA-seq analysis indicated differential expression of TGF-β1 signaling pathway-associated genes and proteins. Fibrosis-related protein and gene expression increased in the CFs stimulated with the recombinant human TGF-β1 and NP, which was consistent with the results of animal experiments. According to the immunofluorescence analysis and western blotting, NP exposure activated the TGF-β1/LIMK1 signaling pathway whose action mechanism in NP-induced CFs was further validated using the LIMK1 inhibitor (BMS-5). The inhibitor modulated the TGF-β1/LIMK1 signaling pathway and suppressed the NP-induced increase in fibrosis-related protein expression in the CFs. Thus, the aforementioned pathway is involved in NP-induced fibrosis. CONCLUSION We here provide the first evidence that perinatal NP exposure causes myocardial fibrosis in growing male rat pups and reveal the molecular mechanism and functional role of the TGF-β1/LIMK1 signaling pathway in this process.

Abstract
Introduction Bisphenol A (BPA), a ubiquitous synthetic monomer primarily used in the manufacture of polycarbonate plastic and epoxy resins and as a non-polymer additive to other plastics, can leach into the food and water supply and has been linked to cardiovascular disease (CVD). This study aimed to analyze BPA levels in patients with varying numbers of coronary artery stenosis and evaluate the prognostic value of new biomarkers cluster of differentiation 36 (CD36) and heart-type fatty acid-binding protein (H-FABP), compared to troponin I and creatine kinase (CK) MB, for detecting myocardial injury. Method Eighty nine patients undergoing angiography at Urmia Hospital from March 2019 to 2020 were included. Serum levels of BPA, CD36, H-FABP, troponin I, and CK-M were measured. Results When comparing CD36 and H-FABP with troponin I and CK-MB across coronary occlusion classes, receiver operating characteristic curves indicated CD36 and H-FABP had higher accuracy than troponin I and CK-MB for detecting stenosis stages. In patients with occlusion, significant alterations were detected in age, sex, BMI, hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, and smoking. BPA serum concentration significantly increased compared to normal subjects. Conclusions Our study revealed that serum biomarkers were valuable for prognosticating myocardial injury. Among these, CD36 and H-FABP were more accurate. BPA concentration correlated with myocardial necrosis, underlying disease, and occlusion stage, suggesting BPA's harmful effects.

Abstract
Bisphenol A (BPA; 4,4'-isopropylidenediphenol) is a well-known endocrine disruptor. Most human exposure to BPA occurs through the consumption of BPA-contaminated foods. Cardiovascular or cardiometabolic diseases such as diabetes, obesity, hypertension, acute kidney disease, chronic kidney disease, and heart failure are the leading causes of death worldwide. Positive associations have been reported between blood or urinary BPA levels and cardiovascular or cardiometabolic diseases. BPA also induces disorders or dysfunctions in the tissues associated with these diseases through various cell signaling pathways. This review highlights the literature elucidating the relationship between BPA and various cardiovascular or cardiometabolic diseases and the potential mechanisms underlying BPA-mediated disorders or dysfunctions in tissues such as blood vessels, skeletal muscle, adipose tissue, liver, pancreas, kidney, and heart that are associated with these diseases.

Low-dose Bisphenol A exposure alters the functionality and cellular environment in a human cardiomyocyte model. ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2023; 335:122359.

Abstract
Early embryonic development represents a sensitive time-window during which the foetus might be vulnerable to the exposure of environmental contaminants, potentially leading to heart diseases also later in life. Bisphenol A (BPA), a synthetic chemical widely used in plastics manufacturing, has been associated with heart developmental defects, even in low concentrations. This study aims to investigate the effects of environmentally relevant doses of BPA on developing cardiomyocytes using a human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived model. Firstly, a 2D in vitro differentiation system to obtain cardiomyocytes from hiPSCs (hiPSC-CMs) have been established and characterised to provide a suitable model for the early stages of cardiac development. Then, the effects of a repeated BPA exposure, starting from the undifferentiated stage throughout the differentiation process, were evaluated. The chemical significantly decreased the beat rate of hiPSC-CMs, extending the contraction and relaxation time in a dose-dependent manner. Quantitative proteomics analysis revealed a high abundance of basement membrane (BM) components (e.g., COL4A1, COL4A2, LAMC1, NID2) and a significant increase in TNNC1 and SERBP1 proteins in hiPSC-CMs treated with BPA. Network analysis of proteomics data supported altered extracellular matrix remodelling and provided a disease-gene association with well-known pathological conditions of the heart. Furthermore, upon hypoxia-reoxygenation challenge, hiPSC-CMs treated with BPA showed higher rate of apoptotic events. Taken together, our results revealed that a long-term treatment, even with low doses of BPA, interferes with hiPSC-CMs functionality and alters the surrounding cellular environment, providing new insights about diseases that might arise upon the toxin exposure. Our study contributes to the current understanding of BPA effects on developing human foetal cardiomyocytes, in correlation with human clinical observations and animal studies, and it provides a suitable model for New Approach Methodologies (NAMs) for environmental chemical hazard and risk assessment.

J Cell Physiol 2023; 238:1256-1274. [PMID: 37012668 DOI: 10.1002/jcp.31007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2022] [Revised: 02/13/2023] [Accepted: 03/08/2023] [Indexed: 04/05/2023]
Abstract
Both bisphenol A (BPA) and selenium (Se) deficiency can affect the expression of microRNAs (miRNAs), which can specifically regulate its target mRNA and induce apoptosis, and play a significant role in cardiovascular injury diseases. To explore the mechanism of apoptosis induced by BPA and Se deficiency in chicken arterial endothelial tissue and the role of miRNAs in this process, the model of BPA exposure/Se deficiency in chicken and PAEC cells have been employed. The targeting relationship between miR-215-3p and iodothyronine deiodinase 1 (Dio1) in PAEC was verified by double luciferase gene report. The level of miR-215-3p was detected by qRT-PCR. The oxidative stress level of arterial endothelial cells was detected by oxidative stress kit and DCFH-DA probe method. The PI3K/AKT pathway, mitochondrial dynamics, and apoptosis-related genes were detected by qRT-PCR and western blot. The mitochondrial ATP level and nitric oxide synthases (NOSs) level were detected with the kit. TUNEL, acridine orange/ethidium bromide, and flow cytometry were used to detect the level of apoptosis. The results showed that BPA exposure and Se deficiency led to overexpression of miR-215-3p, aggravated oxidative stress, inhibited activation of PI3K/AKT pathway, promoted mitochondrial division, increased expression of apoptosis related genes, and finally led to apoptosis of chicken arterial endothelial cells. We also established knockdown/overexpression models of miR-215-3p and Dio1 in vitro, and found that overexpression of miR-215-3p and knockout of Dio1 can induce apoptosis. Interestingly, miR-215-3p-Inhibitor and N-acetyl- l-cysteine (NAC) partially prevented apoptosis caused by BPA exposure and Se deficiency, and LY294002 aggravated apoptosis. These results suggest that BPA exposure aggravates the apoptosis of Se deficient arterial endothelial cells in chickens by regulating the ROS/PI3K/AKT pathway activated by miR-215-3p/Dio1. The miR-215-3p/Dio1 axis provides a new way to understand the toxic mechanism of BPA exposure and Se deficiency, and reveals a new regulatory model of apoptosis damage in vascular diseases.
