چکیده انگلیسی
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are toxic environmental pollutants that are potent teratogens. Recent research suggests that early life exposure to PAHs can affect health outcomes later in life. Some of these latent responses may be mediated by epigenetic mechanisms such as DNA methylation. The role of DNA methylation in regulating responses to PAHs in birds is currently unknown. Here, we assess the effect of in ovo exposure to the model PAH, benzo[k]fluoranthene (BkF), on aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) mediated cytochrome P4501A (CYP1A) gene expression and promoter methylation in chicken embryos. Fertilized chicken eggs were injected with BkF (0-100 μg/kg) prior to incubation. BkF exposure was associated with an increase in CYP1A4 and CYP1A5 mRNA levels at mid-incubation (embryonic day 10), which dropped to baseline levels towards the end of the incubation period (embryonic day 19). The transient induction in CYP1A expression was accompanied by small but significant increases in CYP1A promoter methylation, which persisted until after shortly after hatching. Methylation within the CYP1A promoter was correlated with levels of CYP1A5, but not CYP1A4 mRNA. Characterization of the role of DNA methylation in the AHR response pathway may increase our understanding of the effects of early life exposure to PAHs in birds.
