Bisphenol A (BPA) is a monomer to produce polycarbonate plastics and can be released into the environment through human activities, leading to its accumulation in animals, plants and humans through direct contact or environmental exposure. Epidemiological studies have reported that BPA exposure is associated with metabolic disorders. The pancreas is an important endocrine organ and plays an important role in metabolic disorders. To explore the possible long-term effects of BPA exposure on neonatal health, bioinformatic methods were used to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) by comparing the neonatal pancreas after maternal exposure to BPA with the adult pancreas after direct exposure to BPA. Two datasets about BPA exposure and pancreatic abnormality, GSE82175 and GSE126297 in Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) at the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) were collected. Control (or BPA-exposed) offspring (maternal exposure) and Control (or BPA-exposed) adults (direct exposure) were defined as Control (or BPA) groups. The results showed that BPA disturbed the normal function of the pancreas in both offspring and adults, with offspring showing higher susceptibility to BPA than adults. Seventeen insulin secretion-related DEGs (Stxbp5l, Fam3d, Mia3, Igf1, Hif1a, Aqp1, Kif5b, Tiam1, Map4k4, Cyp51, Pde1c, Rab3c, Arntl, Clock, Edn3, Kcnb1, and Krt20) in the BPA group were identified, and 15 regulator DEGs (Zfp830, 4931431B13Rik, Egr1, Ddit4l, Cep55, G530011O06Rik, Hspa1b, Hspa1a, Cox6a2, Ibtk, Banf1, Slc35b2, Golt1b, Lrp8, and Pttg1) with opposite expression trends and a regulator gene Cerkl with the similar expression trend in the Control and BPA groups were identified. Hif1α might be an important molecular target for pancreatic cancer caused by BPA exposure, and pregnancy is a critical window of susceptibility to BPA exposure.© 2023. The Author(s).
