Objective: It has been suggested that Bisphenol A (BPA), a high-production-volume industrial chemical, can accelerate the development of various type of cancers. However, the effect of BPA on osteosarcoma and the underlying mechanisms are yet to be established. Therefore, in this study we tried to explore the carcinogenic effects of BPA on osteosarcoma and the underlying mechanism.
Methods: SaOs-2 cancer cell line was used to treat with BPA at the doses of 0.1, 1, 10 μM DGLAP5 knockdown and overexpression methods were constructed by using adenovirus mediated transfection, and the functional analysis of DGLAP5 was investigated to evaluate the carcinogenic effect of BPA on osteosarcoma through DLGAP5. Xenograft and metastatic mouse model were used to evaluate in vivo experiments.
Results: In this study, BPA at 10 μM promoted the proliferation, migration and invasion in vitro, and accelerate the progression and metastasis in vivo. Also, exposure to BPA was associated with poor survival of osteosarcoma in mice. In addition, we observed that BPA at 10 μM significantly increased the expression of DGLAP5 in osteosarcoma. Silencing DGLAP5 could reverse the effect of BPA on proliferation, migration and invasion. Mechanically, BPA promoted IL-6, JAK2, and STAT3 expression and promoted tumor progression in an IL-6-dependent manner through up-regulation of DLGAP5.
Conclusion: Our findings demonstrated that BPA could promote the proliferation, migration, invasion of osteosarcoma cells and related to poor survival in a mouse model. DLGAP5 is one of the most critical targets of BPA to act as a carcinogen through IL-6/JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway.

Purpose Of Review: This review aims to characterize the known cardiovascular (CV) manifestations associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and the underlying mechanisms driving these associations.
Recent Findings: Gut dysbiosis, a hallmark of patients with IBD, can result in both local and systemic inflammation, thereby potentially increasing the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in the IBD population. Micronutrient deficiencies, anemia, and sarcopenia independently increase the risk of CVD and are frequent comorbidities of patients with IBD.

Bisphenol A (BPA) is a persistent organic pollutant with toxic effects on human health and ecosystems. In this study, the performance of MWCNT-OH functionalized with iron nanoparticles (MWCNT-OH@Fe) using sugarcane bagasse extract as a reducing agent (green synthesis) was evaluated for BPA adsorption. The kinetics are fast, between 10 and 20 min in the range of concentrations evaluated and the resistance to external film diffusion (external film mass transfer) identified as the rate-limiting step of the process.

The central nervous system (CNS) is particularly vulnerable to endocrine-disrupting chemicals, especially bisphenol analogues. Bisphenol A (BPA), a widely studied compound, has been associated with various neurological disorders, leading to restrictions on its use and the subsequent adoption of alternative chemicals such as 4-hydroxy-4'-isopropoxydiphenylsulfone (BPSIP). However, concerns regarding the potential neurotoxicity of BPSIP have emerged.

The CLARITY-BPA Core Study is the most comprehensive animal study of oral bisphenol A (BPA) exposure to date. Rats were exposed daily, until postnatal day 21 or for the animals' lifetime. While the study authors concluded that several observations at the highest dose may be BPA treatment-related, a No-Observed-Adverse-Effect Level (NOAEL) has not been proposed in the published reports.

Bisphenol A (BPA), a synthetic organic compound widely used in plastic products, toys, water pipes, and flame retardants, has been linked to the onset and progression of various cancers. This study explores the association between BPA and bladder cancer using bioinformatics approaches. We applied the ssGSEA algorithm to calculate BPA-related scores in TCGA-BLCA cohort and classify patients based on this.
