Increasing evidence indicates that disturbance of the clock genes, which leads to systemic endocrine perturbation, plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of metabolic and liver diseases. Fluorene-9-bisphenol (BHPF) is utilized in the manufacturing of plastic materials but its biological effects on liver homeostasis remain unknown. The impacts and involved mechanisms of BHPF on the liver diseases, metabolism, and circadian clock were comprehensively studied by zebrafish and mouse models. The therapeutic effect of melatonin (MT) was also verified. Zebrafish and mouse models with either acute exposure (0.5 and 1 µmol/L, 1-4 days post-fertilization) or chronic oral exposure (0.5 and 50 mg/(kg·2 days), 30 days) were established with various BHPF concentrations. Herein, we identified a crucial role for estrogenic regulation in liver development and circadian locomotor rhythms damaged by BHPF in a zebrafish model. BHPF mice showed chaos in circadian activity through the imbalance of circadian clock component Brain and Muscle Aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator-like 1 in the liver and brain. The liver sexual dimorphic alteration along with reduced growth hormone and estrogens played a critical role in damaged glucose metabolism, hepatic inflammation, and fibrosis induced by BHPF. Besides, sleep improvement by exogenous MT alleviated BHPF‐related glucose metabolism and liver injury in mice. We proposed the pathogenesis of metabolic and liver disease resulting from BHPF and promising targeted therapy for liver metabolism disorders associated with endocrine perturbation chemicals. These results might play a warning role in the administration of endocrine-disrupting chemicals in everyday life and various industry applications.
In this work, AEMs based on poly(arylene ether sulfone)s skeletons were tailored with three kinds of hydrophobic components: biphenol (BP) with conjugate double benzene rings , bisphenol A (BPA) containing isolated double benzene rings and fluorene-9-bisphenol (FBP) with Cardo ring skeleton of four benzene rings. A series of quaternized poly(arylene ether sulfone)s (QPAES) membranes were fabricated successfully including QPAES-BP, QPAES-BPA and QPAES-FBP. The obtained membranes were applied in diffusion dialysis (DD) process of simulated waste acid (1.0 mol L -1 HCl and 0.2 mol L -1 FeCl 2 ) to figure out the influence of hydrophobic structures on DD performance. The dialysis coefficients ( U H + ) were in the range from 12.13 × 10 -3 m h -1 to 13.28 × 10 -3 m h -1 , while the separation factors (S) were in the range from 67.33 to 126.37. The resultant membranes show much better performance compared with the commercial TWDDA1 membrane ( U H + = 8.5 × 10 -3 m h -1 , S = 18.5). Interestingly, the membrane structures and properties revealed that the rigid aromatic component induced low water swelling, strong mechanical property and microphase separation , the nature of the structure offers high U H + as well as high S. The results show that the fabricated membranes are potential candidates for the acid recovery in diffusion dialysis, especially the QPAES-BP membrane tuned with rigid linear conjugated hydrophobic component.
