Product Data
Biological target:
Monobutyl phthalate, a major metabolite of dibutyl phthalate (DBP), possesses antiandrogenic effects.
In vitro activity:
This study studied the gene expression profile in embryonic stem cells (ESC) in the early phase of differentiation and its modulation by exposure to the well known embryotoxicant monobutyl phthalate (MBP). Exposure of embryoid bodies (EB) to MBP increased expression of pluripotency-, proliferation- and nonmesodermal differentiation-related gene sets, which indicates inhibition of mesodermal differentiation. Reference: Reprod Toxicol. 2009 Apr;27(2):93-102. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19162170/
In vivo activity:
Similar to MEHP, rats receiving MBP doses starting with 100 mg/kg bw a day had significantly higher liver weight than control, whereas kidney weights did not differ. Absolute pancreas weight significantly decreased in the group treated with the MBP dose of 400 mg/kg bw a day compared to control. This study also noticed a significant decrease in relative pancreas weight in the group receiving the MBP dose of 200 mg/kg bw a day (Table 4).
