ABSTRACT
Tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA), a widely-used brominated flame retardant, has been revealed to exert endocrine disrupting effects and induce adipogenesis. Given the high structural similarities of TBBPA analogues and their increasing exposure risks, their effects on lipid metabolism are necessary to be explored. Herein, 9 representative TBBPA analogues were screened for their interference on 3T3-L1 preadipocyte adipogenesis, differentiation of C3H10T1/2 mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to brown adipocytes, and lipid accumulation of HepG2 cells. TBBPA bis(2-hydroxyethyl ether) (TBBPA-BHEE), TBBPA mono(2-hydroxyethyl ether) (TBBPA-MHEE), TBBPA bis(glycidyl ether) (TBBPA-BGE), and TBBPA mono(glycidyl ether) (TBBPA-MGE) were found to induce adipogenesis in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes to different extends, as evidenced by the upregulated intracellular lipid generation and expressions of adipogenesis-related biomarkers. TBBPA-BHEE exhibited a stronger obesogenic effect than did TBBPA. In contrast, the test chemicals had a weak impact on the differentiation process of C3H10T1/2 MSCs to brown adipocytes. As for hepatic lipid formation test, only TBBPA mono(allyl ether) (TBBPA-MAE) was found to significantly promote triglyceride (TG) accumulation in HepG2 cells, and the effective exposure concentration of the chemical under oleic acid (OA) co-exposure was lower than that without OA co-exposure. Collectively, TBBPA analogues may perturb lipid metabolism in multiple tissues, which varies with the test tissues. The findings highlight the potential health risks of this kind of emerging chemicals in inducing obesity, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and other lipid metabolism disorders, especially under the conditions in conjunction with high-fat diets.
