2-bromoacetamide (BAcAm), a new class of disinfection by-products (DBPs), is widely detected in drinking water across the world. Reports of the high cytogenetic toxicity of BAcAm have aroused public attention concerning its toxic effects on early embryonic development. In this study, we optimized an in vitro culture (IVC) system for peri- and early post-implantation mouse embryos and used this system to determine the developmental toxicity of BAcAm. We found that exposure to BAcAm caused a reduction in egg cylinder formation rate and abnormal lineage differentiation in a dose-dependent manner. Transcriptomic analysis further revealed that BAcAm exposure at early developmental stages altered the abundance of transcripts related to a variety of biological processes including gene expression, metabolism, cell proliferation, cell death and embryonic development, thus indicating its toxic effects on embryonic development. Thus, we developed a robust tool for studying the toxicology of chemicals at the early stages of embryonic development and demonstrated the developmental toxicity of BAcAm in the early embryonic development of mammals. |
