In this study we used the transgenic mouse model (Muta Mouse), carrying bacterial lacZ genes, to assess the effects of 3,3',4,4',5- pentachlorobiphenl (PCB126) on the prenatal and postnatal offspring. Mothers on the 10th day of pregnancy were given a single injection of PCB126 (500 micrograms/kg) orally. Mothers on the 18th day of pregnancy were sacrificed by decapitation to obtain their fetuses. The fetuses were subjected to observe their external malformations and gene mutations. The other mothers delivered and their offspring were subjected to observe the period of vaginal opening and to measure their motor activity. Fetuses of experimental group showed low incidental rates of the external malformation, cleft palate (5%). DNA (LacZ gene) extracted from these fetuses especially in malformed fetuses showed low incidents of LacZ mutation, 4.11×10-<-5> which was mostly the same as controls, 2.79×10^<-5>. The periods of vaginal opening in the pups of experimental group were little earlier than that observed in the controls. The amounts of motor activity in the pups of experimental group were higher than that observed in the controls. The results indicate that PCB126 induced the malformation and gene mutations in the fetuses but it's incidental rates were low levels, and that PCB126 induces to accelerate the sexual maturation of the female pups and to increase the amounts of the motor activity., 麻布大学ハイテク・リサーチ・センター研究プロジェクト 研究サブ・グループ4, P(論文), 特集, application/pdf, FEATURE ARTICLES}, pages = {211--212}, title = {トランスジェニックマウスを用いたコプラナーPCSsの毒性評価}, volume = {5/6}, year = {2003} }
