pubmed:abstractText |
Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), a common and persistent industrial byproduct detected in human sera, has raised health concerns. PFOA is detrimental to lactational function and postnatal mammary gland development in CD-1 mice after gestational exposure. We have examined the peripubertal period (21 through 50 days of age) as an important window of mammary gland susceptibility to environmental exposures that may affect breast cancer risk later in life. The effects of PFOA (0.1-10mg/kg BW) were examined in Balb/c and C57BL/6 mice. PFOA treatment caused hepatocellular hypertrophy and delayed vaginal opening in both mouse strains. While Balb/c mice exhibited only inhibition of mammary gland and uterine development (5, 10mg/kg), C57BL/6 mice exhibited stimulatory effects in both organs at low dose (5mg/kg) and inhibition at higher dose (10mg/kg). This underscores the need for caution when drawing conclusions about the effects of PFOA and possibly other environmental pollutants on the basis of studies in a single mouse strain.
