Journal ArticleDOI

In ovo effects of two organophosphate flame retardants, TCPP and TDCPP, on pipping success, development, mRNA expression and thyroid hormone levels in chicken embryos

TL;DR: The observed phenotypic responses to TCPP and TDCPP exposure may be associated with disruption of the TH axis, which is critical for normal growth and development in birds.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rapid in vitro metabolism of the flame retardant triphenyl phosphate and effects on cytotoxicity and mRNA expression in chicken embryonic hepatocytes.

TL;DR: First reported evidence that across 27 toxicologically relevant genes, DPHP altered more transcripts than its precursor, and that TPHP is also metabolized via a hydroxylation pathway in CEH is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Key amino acids in the aryl hydrocarbon receptor predict dioxin sensitivity in avian species.

TL;DR: This work suggests that key amino acids in the AHR1 ligand binding domain are predictive of broad categories of dioxin sensitivity in avian species, and suggests a genetic screen based on these findings could substantially improve risk assessment for dioxIn-like compounds in wild birds.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of tris(1,3-dichloro-2-propyl) phosphate and tris(1-chloropropyl) phosphate on cytotoxicity and mRNA expression in primary cultures of avian hepatocytes and neuronal cells.

TL;DR: The results indicate that genes associated with xenobiotic metabolism, the TH pathway, lipid regulation, and growth are vulnerable to TDCPP and TCPP administration in cultured avian hepatocytes.
