Exposure to triphenyl phosphate during pregnancy: The role of gut-bile acids-liver axis on lipid metabolism in male offspring by Juntong Lin, Fuhui Yan, Longhui Liu, Ganzhong Liao, Yilei Xu, Qian Liu, Miaoliang Wu, Honghui Guo, Bai Zhi, Lianxian Guo, Xiaoshan Liu

“…The results showed that gestational TPhP exposure would induce hyperlipidemia in male offspring, it dose-dependently increased the weight of body and liver, levels of serum lipid, and enlarged lipid droplets in white adipose tissue. The expression of lipid metabolism-related genes was significantly changed in the liver and adipose tissue. …”
