Effects of developmental exposure to FireMaster (R) 550 (FM 550) on microglia density, reactivity and morphology in a prosocial animal model

NEUROTOXICOLOGY, 91, 140–154.

By: W. Marinello n , S. Gillera n , M. Fanning n, L. Malinsky n, C. Rhodes n, B. Horman n, H. Patisaul n 

author keywords: Prefrontal cortex; Sex difference; Neurodevelopment; Endocrine disrupting chemicals; Flame retardants; Vole
MeSH headings : Animals; Arvicolinae; Female; Humans; Male; Mice; Microglia; Models, Animal; Organophosphates; Polybrominated Biphenyls; Pregnancy; Rats
TL;DR: Overall, FM 550 exposure resulted in reduced numbers of microglia in most regions examined, with the 1000µg FM 550 exposed males particularly affected. (via Semantic Scholar)

2016 journal article

Sex differences in microglial colonization and vulnerabilities to endocrine disruption in the social brain

GENERAL AND COMPARATIVE ENDOCRINOLOGY, 238, 39–46.

By: M. Rebuli n, P. Gibson  n, C. Rhodes n, B. Cushing * & H. Patisaul n 

author keywords: Vole; Rat; Hypothalamus; EDC; Sexual differentiation; Puberty
MeSH headings : Amygdala / cytology; Amygdala / drug effects; Animals; Animals, Newborn; Arvicolinae; Benzhydryl Compounds / toxicity; Brain / cytology; Brain / drug effects; Brain / growth & development; Dentate Gyrus / cytology; Dentate Gyrus / drug effects; Endocrine Disruptors / toxicity; Female; Male; Microglia / drug effects; Microglia / metabolism; Phenols / toxicity; Rats, Wistar; Sex Characteristics; Social Behavior; Somatosensory Cortex / cytology; Somatosensory Cortex / drug effects
TL;DR: This work is the first to observe that developmental exposure to the synthetic estrogen ethinyl estradiol (EE) or BPA alters the sex-specific colonization of the hippocampus and amygdala by microglia. (via Semantic Scholar)
