Title |
Transcriptomic changes and toxicologic potential of per/polyflourinated alkyl substances (pfas) in laboratory animals via gavage |
Organism |
Rattus norvegicus |
Experiment type |
Expression profiling by high throughput sequencing
|
Summary |
The US EPA has identified a number of PFAS and other chemicals of high priority to States and Regional EPA offices that have no available in vivo toxicology data. Based on the list of data-poor chemicals and availability of the chemicals, four were selected for 5-day hepatic and renal transcriptomic assessments in male and female Hsd: Sprague Dawley (SD) rats. These data will be used for determining provisional pathway-based transcriptomic BMDs for use in human health risk estimations. Traditional toxicological endpoints (e.g. organ weights and clinical chemistry) have been added to the studies to provide additional contextualizaing information (i.e., phenotypic anchoring).

Overall design |
Male and female SD rats were placed on NTP-2000 diet and housed up to 5 animals per cage. After a 10-14 day quarantine, 8-10 week old animals were randomly assigned to treatment and control groups. Five additional animals were included for sentinel evaluation prior to quarantine release and resampled at study termination. Each of six chemicals was given at nine doses (5 mL/kg dosing volume) to the treatment groups. A vehicle control group was also included for each chemical. Male and female rats received the test formulations via gavage for five consecutive days. All animals were euthanized the day after the last dose was administered.
