Obesogenic effect of Bisphenol P on mice via altering the metabolic pathways
Bisphenol P (BPP), structurally similar to bisphenol A, is commonly identified in the samples of environment, food, and humans. Unfortunately, very little information is currently available on adverse effects of BPP. The obesogenic effects and underlying mechanisms of BPP on mice were investigated in this study. Compared with the control, high-resolution microcomputed tomography (micro-CT) scans displayed that the visceral fat volume of mice was significantly increased at a dose of 5 mg/kg/day after BPP exposure for 14 days, whereas the subcutaneous fat volume remained unchanged. Nontargeted metabolomic analysis revealed that BPP significantly perturbed the metabolic pathways of mouse livers, and acetyl-CoA was identified as the potential key metabolite responsible for the visceral fat induced by BPP. These findings recommend that a great deal of attention should be paid to the obesogenic properties of BPP as a result of its widely utilized and persistence in the environment.
