Di (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) and extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMFs) exist far and wide in our surroundings. Studies have reported that both of DEHP and ELF-EMFs could promote cell proliferation which is related with adverse bioeffects. In this study, we investigated whether there is the combined effect between DEHP and 50-Hz magnetic fields (MFs) on cell proliferation in human amniotic (FL) cells. Results revealed that the low-concentration DEHP (1 μM) could promote FL cell proliferation, whereas the high-dose DEHP (100 μM) inhibited cell proliferation. When FL cells were treated jointly by a 50-Hz, 0.2-mT MF and 0.1 μM DEHP, the proliferation rate of cells was significantly higher than that of single factor exposure. Additionally, co-exposure to under-threshold MF and DEHP could cooperatively activate protein kinase B (Akt), sphingosine kinase 1 (SphK1) and extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK) in a cascade manner, and finally mediate cell proliferation. Taken together, the findings of this study indicated that the co-exposure to under-threshold MF and DEHP could jointly promote cell proliferation through activating proliferation-related signal pathway, which warned us that it should be cautious about assessing the underlying health hazards of co-exposure to MFs and DEHP at under-threshold levels.
邻苯二甲酸二(2-乙基己基)酯(DEHP)和极低频电磁场(ELF-EMFs)在我们周围广泛存在。研究报道,DEHP和ELF-EMFs都可促进与不良生物效应相关的细胞增殖。在本研究中,我们调查了DEHP与50赫兹磁场(MFs)对人羊膜(FL)细胞增殖是否存在联合效应。结果显示,低浓度DEHP(1μM)可促进FL细胞增殖,而高剂量DEHP(100μM)则抑制细胞增殖。当FL细胞同时接受50赫兹、0.2毫特斯拉的MF和0.1μM DEHP处理时,细胞增殖率显著高于单因素暴露组。此外,低于阈值的MF与DEHP共同暴露可协同激活蛋白激酶B(Akt)、鞘氨醇激酶1(SphK1)和细胞外信号调节激酶(ERK),并呈级联方式,最终介导细胞增殖。综上所述,本研究结果表明,低于阈值的MF与DEHP共同暴露可通过激活增殖相关信号通路共同促进细胞增殖,这警示我们在评估低于阈值水平的MF与DEHP共同暴露的潜在健康危害时应谨慎。
