Gestational exposure to triphenyl phosphate induces epigenetic modifications in <scp>C57Bl</scp>/6 fetal liver

Abstract

The results suggest that gestational TPHP exposure can induce epigenetic modifications in murine fetal tissue. Specifically, global DNA methylation levels were downregulated in response to TPHP. Additionally, males appear to be more sensitive to TPHP-induced histone modifications than females. These data support the need for further studies investigating the impacts of gestational TPHP exposure on the developing fetus.
