Outline of Final Research Achievements |
An endocrine disrupting chemical, bisphenol A (BPA) binds to protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) and inhibits its isomerase activity. In this study, we found the new BPA-binding PDI family proteins. ERp29 revealed 3 times higher affinity than PDI toward BPA. Furthermore, effects of BPA on growth hormone (GH) release via Thyroid hormone receptor (THR) in GH3 cells. BPA in high concentration induced but low concentration of BPA inhibited the GH expression of GH3 cells. BPA induced nitric oxide in GH3 and PC12 cells and nitrosylation of PDI. NOC7 which is an NO-provider inhibited PDI activity and neurite outgrowth in PC12 cells.
