Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of maternal exposure to bisphenol A(BPA) via drinking water on body weight of immature offspring during pregnancy and lactation. Methods The pregnant female ICR mice were exposed to BPA groups(2. 282 9,22. 829 0,228. 290 0 μg/L) by drinking water from gestational day(GD)0 till postnatal day (PND)21,water and dimethyl sulfoxide(0. 01%) were served as blank and vehicle control. Maternal body weight was recorded every three days during pregnancy. Weight of pups per litter was measured every three days during lactation. Body weight of offspring was taken notes every week till PND 42 after delactation. ResultsThere was no significant difference in pregnant maternal body weight, average numbers and body weight of pups per litter preweaning among all groups. The offspring weight of the high-dose group at PND 42 was increased compared with control groups(P<0.05). The weight of female offspring was not significantly different among all groups at PND 28~42. The male offspring weight of the middle/high group at PND 35 and all groups at PND 42 significantly was elevated(P<0.05,P<0.01),and the high group was most significant. Conclusion Body weight of immature offspring is affected,especially male offspring after delectation by pregnant and lactational BPA exposure.
