“…For example, BPS has been detected in concentration ranges of 0.83 ng/g and 26.6 μg/g in indoor dust [7]. Yamazaki et al [8] reported that BPS concentrations in water samples from Pearl River in China (135 ng/L) and Adyar River in India (6840 ng/L) were considerably higher than that of BPA (73 and 359 ng/L for the two rivers, respectively). Previous data also demonstrated that in sediments collected from the USA, Japan, and Korea, BPS has been detected in concentration ranges of 0.002–1970 ng/g dry weight (dw) [9], while in a municipal sewage sludge collected in 20 provinces of China, the detected concentrations were in the range of 0.17–110 ng/g dw [5].…”

Bisphenol S (BPS) is widely used as a raw material in industry, resulting in its ubiquitous distribution in natural environment, including the aqueous environment. However, the effect of BPS on the thyroid endocrine system is largely unknown. In this study, zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryos were exposed to BPS at 1, 3, 10, and 30 μg/L, from 2 h post-fertilization (hpf) to 168hpf. Bioconcentration of BPS and whole-body thyroid hormones (THs), thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) concentrations as well as transcriptional profiling of key genes related to the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid (HPT) axis were examined. Chemical analysis indicated that BPS was accumulated in zebrafish larvae. Thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3) levels were significantly decreased at ≥ 10 and 30 μg/L of BPS, respectively. However, TSH concentration was significantly induced in the 10 and 30 μg/L BPS-treated groups. After exposure to BPS, the mRNA expression of corticotrophin releasing hormone (crh) and thyroglobulin (tg) genes were up-regulated at ≥10 μg/L of BPS, in a dose-response manner. The transcription of genes involved in thyroid development (pax8) and synthesis (sodium/iodide symporter, slc5a5) were also significantly increased in the 30 μg/L of BPS treatment group. Moreover, exposure to 10 μg/L or higher concentration of BPS significantly up-regulated genes related to thyroid hormone metabolism (deiodinases, dio1, dio2 and uridinediphosphate glucoronosyltransferases, ugt1ab), which might be responsible for the altered THs levels. However, the transcript of transthyretin (ttr) was significantly down-regulated at ≥ 3 μg/L of BPS, while the mRNA levels of thyroid hormone receptors (trα and trβ) and dio3 remained unchanged. All the results indicated that exposure to BPS altered the whole-body THs and TSH concentrations and changed the expression profiling of key genes related to HPT axis, thus triggering thyroid endocrine disruption.

“…Extensive evidence indicates that BPA induces feminization during gonadal ontogeny of fishes [4], reptiles [5], birds [6], and human [7,8], and it is identified as an endocrine disruptor and leads to carcinogenesis [9]. Biology is exposed to ubiquitous BPA Though its hazardous effects, more than 5 million metric tons of BPA was produced in 2011 and was mainly used in East Asia (Korea, China and Japan), and kept increasing year by year [10,11].…”

“…45,46 BPA, BPF and BPS are detected in our environment including water from rivers, sewage sludge and indoor air. [47][48][49] Receipts, paper products, and many canned food and soft drinks were found to have BPS and BPF. [50][51][52][53][54][55][56][57] In USA, BPF and BPS were detected in most of the human urine samples, albeit less frequent and lower concentrations than BPA in the same sample.…”

Bisphenol-A (BPA) is widely used in the plastic industry, and it is one of the well-studied endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs). Growing evidence raised the concern of BPA having weak estrogenic activity on human health including female reproductive functions and diseases. Serum BPA level is also associated with pregnancy loss, reproductive tract diseases and infertility. In fact, several countries restricted the use of BPA, and therefore substitutes which share similar chemical and physical properties with BPA were used. However, the effects of these bisphenols (e.g. bisphenol-F (BPF) and bisphenol-S (BPS)) on human reproductive health have not been fully investigated, and this mini-review summarized the recent data of these bisphenols on human reproductive health, and raise the concern on the safety and transgenerational effect of these bisphenols in humans.
