| Abstract | Bisphenol A (BPA), an widely used environmental chemical, is encircled to human life. However, we generally do not know whether or not it can cause negative health effects. One of the representative epigenetic changes that inhibit gene expression is DNA methylation, which has been very well studied in association with cancer and development. Gene function is changed by DNA methylation; however, its genetic code does not change. Our study hypothesized that a post-transcriptional change in DNA occurs due to exposure to BPA. These changes then cause regulation of microRNA and gene expression. To identify these successional regulations, we conducted microarraybased assays. For validation, also we conducted bisulfite sequencing, quantitative real-time PCR, miRNA inhibitor assay, and Western blotting. We found 1,751 hypo-methylation changed regions, and several micro- RNA had included methylated-regions. miR-22 was also hypomethylated (chr17:1563947-1564031) by BPA-exposure, and expression of miR-22 was up-regulated in an miRNA array and real-time PCR. miR- 22 has been reported to inhibit estrogen signaling by direct targeting of the estrogen receptor alpha mRNA. Taking notice of this point, we analyzed gene expression profiles that included its predicted targets. In the present study, we found the cause of hypomethylation of miR-22 and negative regulation of its apoptosisrelated target gene expression by BPA-exposure. These results suggests that BPA can alter sequential genomic appearances in HepG2 cells, a potentially affection of BPA toxicity. Also, the results of our study support that toxicology study need to integrated analysis of array-based assays for help in understanding of the molecular action of environmental toxicants. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
