DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Many endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs) have immediate effects on exposed individuals, but more complex concerns surround their long term actions on subsequent generations. The limited data from humans concur with the animal work suggesting that exposure to EDCs, particularly exposure during development, produce subtle increases in disease states, along with evidence for transgenerational effects. The precise epigenetic and/or genetic actions of EDCs on specific target genes, which produce stable modifications in subsequent generations, are unknown. The first goal of this program is to understand the mechanisms underlying transgenerational inheritance produced by human-relevant levels of the ubiquitous EDC, Bisphenol A (BPA). The work proposed is the first to test transgenerational actions of human-relevant exposures of BPA on brain and behaviors. Pregnant inbred mice are exposed to EDCs via voluntary ingestion of maternal diet. At birth, control and BPA pups are fostered to dams on control diet to isolate the actions of BPA to gestation and control for any consequences of these compounds on maternal behavior. We have shown that several social behaviors in the first and fourth generation (F4) of mice the BPA lineage differ significantly from control mice. Moreover, mRNA for two genes that regulate social behavior, vasopressin (Avp) and oxytocin (Oxt), are decreased in brains of the F4 BPA-exposed mice. Experiment one will determine the parent of origin for transmission of BPA's actions. In addition we will assess a number of cognitive and emotional behaviors in these mice to improve our ability to predict which human diseases may be sensitive to BPA. In the next study brains regions are probed with next generation sequencing techniques to establish target genes. Brains from F3 mice will be dissected into the nuclei that compose the social behavior network. A combination of Chromatin Immunoprecipitation (ChiP-) and RNA-sequencing will be conducted. These data provide targets for the epigenetic modifications found in brain. The mechanisms revealed will be applicable to other target tissues and thus a variety of diseases. This research plan will provide the field with a model for transgenerational actions of BPA and an epigenomic map of the consequences of these exposures.

描述（由申请人提供）：许多内分泌干扰化合物（EDCs）对暴露个体有直接影响，但更复杂的问题是它们对后代的长期作用。来自人类的有限数据与动物研究一致，表明暴露于内分泌干扰物，特别是在发育过程中的暴露，会导致疾病状态的微妙增加，沿着有跨代效应的证据。内分泌干扰物对特定靶基因的精确表观遗传和/或遗传作用（在后代中产生稳定的修饰）尚不清楚。该计划的第一个目标是了解由普遍存在的EDC，双酚A（BPA）的人类相关水平产生的跨代遗传的机制。这项工作首次测试了BPA对大脑和行为的人类相关暴露的跨代作用。怀孕的近交系小鼠通过自愿摄入母体饮食暴露于内分泌干扰物。出生时，对照组和BPA幼崽被饲养到采用对照饮食的母鼠中，以隔离BPA对妊娠的作用，并控制这些化合物对母体行为的任何后果。我们已经证明，BPA谱系小鼠的第一代和第四代（F4）的几种社会行为与对照小鼠有显着差异。此外，在暴露于F4 BPA的小鼠的大脑中，调节社会行为的两种基因--加压素（Avp）和催产素（Oxt）的mRNA减少。实验一将确定BPA行为传播的起源。此外，我们将评估这些小鼠的一些认知和情感行为，以提高我们预测哪些人类疾病可能对BPA敏感的能力。在接下来的研究中，大脑区域将被下一代测序技术探测，以建立靶基因。来自F3小鼠的大脑将被解剖成组成社会行为网络的细胞核。将进行染色质免疫沉淀（ChiP-）和RNA测序的组合。这些数据为大脑中发现的表观遗传修饰提供了靶点。所揭示的机制将适用于其他靶组织，从而适用于各种疾病。该研究计划将为该领域提供BPA跨代作用的模型和这些暴露后果的表观基因组图谱。
