Abstract

Diisononyl phthalate (DINP), considered to be an environmentally friendly plasticizer, is now widely used. However, the toxic effects of DINP need to be examined, particularly the effects of long-term dermal DINP exposure. Research into the mechanisms underlying these effects is urgently needed. In this study we examined the exacerbation effect of long-term dermal exposure to DINP in fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-induced contact hypersensitivity (CHS) in mice, and sought the potential molecular mechanisms. Forty-nine male Balb/c mice were subjected to a 40-day dermal exposure to saline or one of three concentrations of DINP and then three rounds of sensitization with vehicle or 0.5% FITC. The results of a histopathological examination and measurement of ear swelling as well as immunological and inflammatory biomarkers (total-immunoglobulin (Ig)E and Th cytokines) supported the notion that high doses of DINP may aggravate atopic dermatitis. We also showed that melatonin, an antioxidant, could decrease the levels of oxidative stress and alleviate FITC-induced CHS suggesting that oxidative stress may be one of the molecular mechanisms to explain the exacerbation effect induced by DINP.
