A study on bisphenol S induced nephrotoxicity and assessment of altered downstream kidney metabolites using gas chromatography–mass spectrometry based metabolomics
The global use of bisphenol S (BPS) has now been significantly increased for commensurate utilization as a substitute for BPA for its regulatory concerns. Though, previous reports indicated that BPS been also appeared as a toxic congener comparable to BPA. In the present study, we determined nephrotoxicity condition induced due to BPS exposure. Results indicated that BPS significantly promoted histopathological disturbance in the kidney, and altered the levels of biomarkers of kidney damage in serum and urine samples of Wistar rats. It is also indicated that BPS altered the expression of kidney damage biomarkers associated with glomerular and tubular injury. Additionally, we determined the perturbation of kidney metabolites in the underlying pathophysiological response of kidney injury due to BPS exposure. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry based untargeted metabolomics exhibited 20 significantly perturbed metabolites. Moreover, metabolic pathway analysis revealed significant disturbance in the TCA cycle and pyruvate metabolism pathways.
