Differential receptor tyrosine kinase phosphorylation in the uterus of rats following developmental exposure to tetrabromobisphenol A
Tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) is a brominated flame retardant that induces endometrial adenocarcinoma and other uterine tumors in Wistar Han rats; however, early molecular events or biomarkers of TBBPA exposure remain unknown. We investigated the effects of TBBPA on growth factor receptor activation...

Several phospho-RTKs were also significantly overexpressed at PND 33 which included epithelial growth factor receptor (EGFR), FGFR2, FGFR3, FGFR4, insulin-like growth factor receptor 1 (IGF1R), insulin receptor (INSR), AXL receptor tyrosine kinase (AXL), MER proto-oncogene, tyrosine kinase (MERTK), platelet derived growth factor receptor alpha and beta (PDGFRA and PDGFRB), ret proto-oncogene (RET), tyrosine kinase with immunoglobulin-like and EGF-like domains 1 and 2 (TIE1 and TIE2), TRKA, kinase insert domain receptor (KDR;VEGFR2), fms related receptor tyrosine kinase (FLT4; VEGFR3), and EPHA1 at different treatment concentrations. EGFR, a RTK overexpressed in endometrial cancer in women, remained significantly increased for all treatment groups at PND 90.

Tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) is a brominated flame retardant that induces endometrial adenocarcinoma and other uterine tumors in Wistar Han rats; however, early molecular events or biomarkers of TBBPA exposure remain unknown. We investigated the effects of TBBPA on growth factor receptor activation [phospho-receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs)] in uteri of rats following early-life exposures. Pregnant Wistar Han rats were exposed to TBBPA (0, 0.1, 25, and 250 mg/kg bw/day) via oral gavage on gestation day 6 through weaning of pups on postnatal day (PND) 21.
