Experimental studies on cervical and lumbar ribs in mouse embryos
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
In humans, the presence of cervical and lumbar ribs is of particular clinical significance. However, the relevance of their occurrence in the offspring of experimental animals in reproductive toxicologic studies is poorly understood. Maternal toxicity has been implicated in the etiology but conclusive evidence is lacking. The present study was undertaken to determine the incidence of supernumerary ribs (SNR) in mouse fetuses prenatally exposed to valproic acid (VPA) and retinoic acid (RA), and to compare their differential developmental susceptibility and morphological association with other axial skeletal anomalies. Single doses of valproic acid (VPA) or retinoic acid (RA) were administered to groups of mice on one of gestation days (GD) 7-12. Fetuses were collected on GD 18 and their skeletons examined for SNR. VPA treatment on GD 7 and GD 8 resulted in a high incidence of cervical and lumbar ribs, respectively. Cervical neural arch anomalies in the GD 7 group, and eight pairs of sternal ribs and seven sternebrae in the GD 8 group were observed in excess of the background SNR suggesting a direct effect of VPA on the developing mouse skeletal system. In the RA groups, GD 8-12 were susceptible for lumbar rib induction but increased incidence of cervical ribs was observed only from GD 9-12. Peak incidence of cervical ribs was found in the GD 10 and 11 groups and that of the lumbar ribs in the GD 8 and 11 groups. Although SNR incidence generally increased with increasing dose of RA, a strict dose-response relationship was lacking. Cervical arch anomalies were observed in as many embryos as those with cervical ribs, but eight pairs of sternal ribs and seven sternebrae did not correlate well with the lumbar ribs in the peak day groups. Interrupted cervical neural arches correlated well with lumbar ribs. The reduction in the frequency of presacral vertebrae from 26 to 25 in the VPA groups was limited to GD 7 (30%) and 8 (18%) groups. RA-induced reduction in presacral vertebral number extended to GD 9 and was greater in the GD 8 than in the GD 9 groups. Sternal anomalies occurred both in VPA and RA experiments and did not strictly correlate with the frequency of SNR. VPA had a narrow window of susceptibility, whereas RA effects on sternum extended from GD 9-12. The incidence of sternal anomalies generally increased with increasing dose and advancing developmental stage at which RA exposure occurred. These developmental susceptibility windows and associated malformations, when considered in the context of the ability of these drugs to induce alterations in gene expression in mouse embryos suggest that SNR are polygenic in origin and greatly influenced by environmental toxicants.
