摘要

六氟环氧丙烷二聚酸(HFPO-DA或GenX)已在地表水、植物和生物群中检测到,具有持久性和生物蓄积性问题。然而,其对男性生殖的毒性却知之甚少。本研究选取8周龄C57BL/6J雌性小鼠(n = 36),分别给予milliq水、GenX (2mg/kg/day)、GenX加菊粉(5g/kg/day)或菊粉灌胃至断奶(PND28),评价其对雄性后代生殖功能的影响。早期接触GenX导致雄性小鼠精子质量下降,睾丸组织结构受损,血清睾酮和黄体生成素(LH)水平降低(p < 0.05),提示生殖毒性和下丘脑-垂体-睾丸轴紊乱。与转录组学分析显示的cAMP通路富集一致,GenX组中StAR、CYP11A1、CYP17A1、3β-HSD、17β-HSD和PKA蛋白表达降低(p < 0.05), NPY过表达(p < 0.05)。菊粉减轻了GenX暴露引起的睾丸结构损伤,增加了血清睾酮和LH水平以及cAMP途径中的蛋白质表达。综上所述,我们的研究结果表明,产前和哺乳期暴露于GenX通过调节lh介导的cAMP途径减少雄性小鼠的睾酮合成,导致雄性生殖障碍,而菊粉干预可能会减轻生殖毒性。

Inulin attenuates reproductive toxicity caused by prenatal and lactation GenX exposure through modulating the hypothalamic–pituitary–testicular (HPT) axis via the LH/cAMP/StAR pathway in male mice
With persistent and bioaccumulation concerns, hexafluoropropylene oxide dimer acid (HFPO-DA or GenX) has been detected in surface water, plants, and biota. However, its male reproductive toxicity is poorly understood. In this study, pregnant 8-week-old C57BL/6 J female mice (n = 36) were administered Milli-Q water, GenX (2 mg/kg/day), GenX with inulin (5 g/kg/day) or inulin by gavage until weaning (PND28) to evaluate the effects on the reproductive function of the male offspring. Early-life GenX exposure resulted in decreased sperm quality, impaired testicular tissue structure, and reduced serum testosterone and luteinizing hormone (LH) levels in male mice (p < 0.05), suggesting reproductive toxicity and disturbance of the hypothalamicpituitarytesticular axis. Consistent with the enrichment of the cAMP pathway shown by transcriptomics analysis, decreased protein expression of StAR, CYP11A1, CYP17A1, 3β-HSD, 17β-HSD and PKA (p < 0.05) and overexpression of NPY (p < 0.05) were also detected in the GenX group. Inulin alleviated testicular structure injury resulting from GenX exposure and increased serum testosterone and LH levels as well as protein expression in the cAMP pathway. Taken together, our results suggest that prenatal and lactation GenX exposure reduces testosterone synthesis in male mice by modulating the LH-mediated cAMP pathway, leading to male reproductive disorders, whereas inulin intervention might attenuate reproductive toxicity.

期刊介绍: Drawing from a large number of disciplines, Reproductive Toxicology publishes timely, original research on the influence of chemical and physical agents on reproduction. Written by and for obstetricians, pediatricians, embryologists, teratologists, geneticists, toxicologists, andrologists, and others interested in detecting potential reproductive hazards, the journal is a forum for communication among researchers and practitioners. Articles focus on the application of in vitro, animal and clinical research to the practice of clinical medicine. All aspects of reproduction are within the scope of Reproductive Toxicology, including the formation and maturation of male and female gametes, sexual function, the events surrounding the fusion of gametes and the development of the fertilized ovum, nourishment and transport of the conceptus within the genital tract, implantation, embryogenesis, intrauterine growth, placentation and placental function, parturition, lactation and neonatal survival. Adverse reproductive effects in males will be considered as significant as adverse effects occurring in females. To provide a balanced presentation of approaches, equal emphasis will be given to clinical and animal or in vitro work. Typical end points that will be studied by contributors include infertility, sexual dysfunction, spontaneous abortion, malformations, abnormal histogenesis, stillbirth, intrauterine growth retardation, prematurity, behavioral abnormalities, and perinatal mortality.
