    • Background: Developmental exposure to low doses of the endocrine disruptor bisphenol A (BPA) is known to alter bone tissue in young rodents, although how bone tissue is affected in aged animals is not well known. We have recently shown that low-dose developmental exposure to BPA increases procollagen type I N-terminal propeptide (P1NP) levels, a peptide formed during type 1 collagen synthesis, in plasma of 5-week-old female rat offspring while male offspring showed reduced bone size.Objective: To analyze offspring bone phenotype at 52 weeks of age and clarify whether the BPA-induced increase in P1NP levels at 5 weeks is an early sign of bone marrow fibrosis development.Methods: As in our 5-week study, pregnant Fischer 344 rats were exposed to BPA via drinking water corresponding to 0.5 mu g/kg BW/day (BPA0.5), which is in the range of human daily exposure, or 50 mu g/kg BW/day (BPA50) from gestational day 3.5 until postnatal day 22. Controls were given only vehicle. The offspring were sacrificed at 52 weeks of age. Bone effects were analyzed using peripheral quantitative and micro-computed tomography (microCT), 3-point bending test, plasma markers and histological examination.Results: Compared to a smaller bone size at 5 weeks, at the age of 52 weeks, femur size in male offspring had been normalized in developmentally BPA-exposed rats. The 52-week-old female offspring showed, like the 5-week-old siblings, higher plasma P1NP levels compared to controls but no general increasing bone growth or strength. However, 2 out of 14 BPA-exposed female offspring bones developed extremely thick cortices later in life, discovered by systematic in vivo microCT scanning during the study. This was not observed in male offspring or in female controls. Biomechanical testing revealed that both doses of developmental BPA exposure reduced femur stiffness only in female offspring. In addition, histological analysis showed an increased number of fibrotic lesions only in the bone man ow of female rat offspring developmentally exposed to BPA. In line with this, plasma markers of inflammation, Tnf (in BPA0.5) and Timpl (in BPA50) were increased exclusively in female offspring.Conclusions: Developmental BPA exposure at an environmentally relevant concentration resulted in female specific effects on bone as well as on plasma biomarkers of collagen synthesis and inflammation. Even a dose approximately eight times lower than the current temporary EFSA human tolerable daily intake of 4 mu g/kg BW/day, appeared to induce bone stiffness reduction, bone man ow fibrosis and chronic inflammation in female rat offspring later in life.

  • Low-dose developmental exposure to bisphenol A induces sex-specific effects in bone of Fischer 344 rat offspring
  • 2017
  • Ingår i: Environmental Research. - : Elsevier BV. - 0013-9351 .- 1096-0953. ; 159, s. 61-68

    • BACKGROUND: Bisphenol A (BPA) is a component of polycarbonate plastics to which humans are regularly exposed at low levels, and an endocrine disruptor with effects on several hormonal systems. Bone is a sensitive hormone target tissue, and we have recently shown that in utero and lactational exposure to 25µg BPA/kg BW/day alters femoral geometry in rat offspring.OBJECTIVE: To investigate bone effects in rat offspring after developmental exposure to a BPA dose in the range of human daily exposure (0.1-1.5µg/kg BW/day) as well as a dose to corroborate previous findings.METHODS: Pregnant Fischer 344 rats were exposed to BPA via drinking water corresponding to 0.5µg/kg BW/day: [0.5], (n=21) or 50µg/kg BW/day: [50], (n = 16) from gestational day 3.5 until postnatal day 22, while controls were given only vehicle (n = 25). The offspring was sacrificed at 5 weeks of age. Bone effects were analyzed using peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT), the 3-point bending test, plasma markers of bone turnover, and gene expression in cortical bone and bone marrow.RESULTS: Compared to controls, male offspring developmentally exposed to BPA had shorter femurs. pQCT analysis revealed effects in the [0.5] group, but not in the [50] group; BPA reduced both trabecular area (-3.9%, p < 0.01) and total cross sectional area (-4.1%, p < 0.01) of femurs in the [0.5] group, whereas no effects were seen on bone density. Conversely, bone length and size were not affected in female offspring. However, the procollagen type I N-terminal propeptide (P1NP), a peptide formed during type 1 collagen synthesis, was increased in plasma (42%: p < 0.01) in female offspring exposed to [0.5] of BPA, although collagen gene expression was not increased in bone. The biomechanical properties of the bones were not altered in either sex. Bone marrow mRNA expression was only affected in male offspring.CONCLUSIONS: Developmental low-dose exposure to BPA resulted in sex-specific bone effects in rat offspring. A dose approximately eight times lower than the current temporary EFSA human tolerable daily intake of 4µg/kg BW/day, reduced bone length and size in male rat offspring. Long-term studies are needed to clarify whether the increased plasma levels of P1NP in female offspring reflect development of fibrosis.
