Abstract

Bisphenol A (BPA) is a ubiquitous environmental pollutant with endocrine-disrupting functions. Identifying protective drugs and exploring the mechanisms against BPA are crucial in healthcare. Natural products exhibiting antioxidant properties are considered to be able to protect against BPA toxicity. Although BPA-modulated targets and miRNAs have been individually reported, their connections to natural products were rarely organized. With the help of a protein–protein interaction database (STRING), the relationship between individual BPA-modulated targets was interconnected to provide a systemic view. In this review, BPA-downregulated and -upregulated targets are classified, and their interactive network was innovatively analyzed using the bioinformatic database (STRING). BPA-modulated miRNAs were also retrieved and ingeniously connected to BPA-modulated targets. Moreover, a novel connection between BPA-countering natural products was integrated into BPA-modulated miRNAs and targets. All these targets-associated natural products and/or miRNAs were incorporated into the STRING network, providing systemic relationships. Overall, the BPA-modulated target–miRNA-protecting natural product axis was innovatively constructed, providing a straightforward direction for exploring the integrated BPA-countering effects and mechanisms of natural products.

期刊介绍： Environmental Health publishes manuscripts focusing on critical aspects of environmental and occupational medicine, including studies in toxicology and epidemiology, to illuminate the human health implications of exposure to environmental hazards. The journal adopts an open-access model and practices open peer review. It caters to scientists and practitioners across all environmental science domains, directly or indirectly impacting human health and well-being. With a commitment to enhancing the prevention of environmentally-related health risks, Environmental Health serves as a public health journal for the community and scientists engaged in matters of public health significance concerning the environment.
