Recent work has demonstrated that BPA and 17? | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Moreover, we previously reported that the amount of BPA-GA excreted in maternal veins is increased by compensatory excretion (Inoue et al. 2004). | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
When coupled with the relatively long gestation period in humans, such compensatory increases in plasma BPA-GA could increase the risk of placental transfer of BPA-GA, even though maternal exposures may be low. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
This low level of UGT activity may induce delay of metabolism toward deconjugated BPA in the fetus. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
However, during pregnancy, the concentration of BPA-GA in maternal blood may be increased because of an increase in venous excretion by hepatocytes. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
When coupled with the relatively long gestation period in humans, such compensatory increases in plasma BPA-GA could increase the risk of placental transfer of BPA-GA, even though maternal exposures may be low. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
This suggests that the concentration of BPA-GA in maternal blood is increased for the entire gestational period and that, consequently, there is an increased risk of BPA-GA transfer across the placenta. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Leaching of BPA out of the products is increased by heating (Krishnan et al. 1993), contact with alkaline substances (Olea et al. 1996), and deterioration of the products (Howdeshell et al. 2003), and BPA is thus widely released into the environment. | |||||||||||||||
