Dipropyl phthalate
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Dipropyl phthalate is an immunomodulator. Dipropyl phthalate alters the activities of acid phosphatase, phenoloxidase and superoxide dismutase, increases the activity of β-glucuronidase in a dose-dependent manner, and elevates the mRNA level of hemocyanin in shrimp. Dipropyl phthalate activates the FoxO signaling pathway, interferes with cell proliferation and apoptosis, downregulates chondrocyte-related genes, and induces craniofacial cartilage developmental malformations in zebrafish embryos. Dipropyl phthalate can be used in studies related to Aeromonas veronii infection and micrognathia syndrome.

Dipropyl phthalate (1-4 mg/L; waterborne; continuous; 6 to 96 hpf) induces concentration-dependent craniofacial chondrogenic defects, developmental toxicity, oxidative stress, inflammation, and locomotor impairment in Danio rerio embryos via activation of the FoxO signaling pathway, with an LC50 of 0.918 mg/L at 144 hpf[2].

Caused concentration-dependent decreases in hatching rate, body length, head width, head length, interocular width, heart rate, and ceratohyal (CH) length (reduced to ~145 µm, ~130 µm, and ~100 µm respectively vs control ~175 µm).

Reduced cranial neural crest cell proliferation, increased pharyngeal arch chondrocyte apoptosis, and caused incomplete hypobranchial artery development.
Elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation in pharyngeal arches, increased malondialdehyde (MDA) content, decreased catalase (CAT) and alkaline phosphatase (AKP) activity, and increased superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity.
Downregulated osteoblast markers (runx2b, col1a1), chondrocyte marker col2a1a (significantly only at 4 mg/L), and craniofacial cartilage formation marker dlx2.
Upregulated osteoclast markers (ocstamp, ctsk), pro-apoptotic genes (p53, Bax), inflammatory factors (il6, il10, ptgs2a), oxidative stress response gene (gpx1), and FoxO signaling pathway genes (foxo1a, stat3, p27, mst1, faslg).
