Immunohistochemical Staining of Tumor Tissue
Cited 269 times
Standard IHC protocol was followed to stain the tumor tissue samples using the mouse monoclonal antibody against hNIS (human Sodium Iodide Symporter) (Abcam, ab17795), ER (Estrogen Receptor) (Abcam, ab16660, ab288). Briefly, 5 µm sized paraffin embedded tissue sections were de-paraffinized with xylene and endogenous peroxidase activity was quenched with 3% H2O2 in methanol for 30 minutes in the dark. Tissue sections were dehydrated through graded alcohols and subjected to antigen retrieval using 10mM sodium citrate. Sections were washed with TBST (Tris Borate Saline Tween-20) and then blocked with 5% BSA (Bovine Serum Albumin) for one hour. Slides were incubated with the respective mouse monoclonal primary antibody diluted with TBS. Slides were then washed for 5 minutes in TBST and incubated for 1 hour with the respective HRP (Horse Raddish Peroxidase) conjugated anti-mouse secondary antibody diluted with TBS in a ratio of 1∶200. After washing, slides were incubated with DAB (3,3′-diaminobenzidine tetrahydrochloride) (Sigma) and immediately washed under tap water after color development. Slides were then counter stained with hematoxylin. Slides were mounted with DPX (dibutyl phthalate xylene) and were then observed under a light microscope (Carl Zeiss).

Measurement of Environmental Exposures
Cited 14 times
Samples collected at visit 1 were analyzed at the National Center for Environmental Health laboratories at CDC for nine phthalate metabolites [n = 1,149; monoethylphthalate (MEP), mono-butyl phthalate, mono-iso-butyl phthalate, mono-benzyl phthalate, mono-3-carboxypropyl phthalate, mono-2-ethyl-5-carboxypentyl phthalate, mono-(2-ethyl-5-hydroxylhexyl) phthalate, mono-(2-ethyl-5-oxohexyl) phthalate, and mono-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (MEHP)], seven phenols (benzophenone-3, bisphenol A, 2,5-dichlorophenol, triclosan; n = 1,149; methyl-, butyl-, and propyl- parabens, n = 1,059), and three phytoestrogens (daidzein, genistein, enterolactone; n = 1,150). Parabens were not measured early in the study. At least one urinary biomarker measurement was available among 1,151 girls, 985 with breast stages. We substituted limit of detection ( for results below the LOD. Adjustment for urine dilution was accomplished using creatinine, to account for difference in sampling (spot specimens at MSSM and KPNC, early-morning samples at Cincinnati) and interindividual variation in urine dilution. We included log-creatinine in models using continuous log-biomarker variables, and we created quintile cut points from creatinine-corrected concentrations (micrograms per gram creatinine). As previously described, to reduce multiple comparisons we combined the phthalate metabolites into two groups that represent similar sources and similar biologic activity, low- (< 250 Da) and high-molecular-weight (> 250 Da) phthalate metabolites (low MWP and high MWP) [details in Supplemental Material, Table 2 (doi:10.1289/ehp.0901690)]. We expressed high MWP molar sum as MEHP (molecular weight 278) and the low MWP as MEP (molecular weight 194) so that units were the same as the other analytes (micrograms per liter). Similarly, a molar sum of the paraben metabolites was created (paraben sum) expressed as propyl paraben (molecular weight 180.2). Models with the individual phthalate and paraben metabolites were consistent with the molar sum variables. Results using di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP)-sum metabolites were almost identical to those for the high MWP, and they represented 75% ± 16% (mean ± SD) of the high MWP biomarkers. Therefore, only the latter models are presented.
Laboratory techniques and quality control protocols are identical to those reported previously in a pilot study (Wolff et al. 2007 (link)). Briefly, urine undergoes an automated cleanup with enzymatic deconjugation, followed by high-performance liquid chromatography-isotope dilution tandem mass spectrometry quantification (Kato et al. 2005 (link); Rybak et al. 2008 ; Ye et al. 2005 (link), 2006 ). In addition to the internal CDC quality control procedures, we incorporated approximately 10% masked quality control specimens (n = 101) from a single urine pool. The coefficients of variation (SD/mean concentration) were < 10% for 13 analytes and were between 10% and 21% for the remaining six biomarkers.

Osteocyte Lacunae Morphometric Analysis
Cited 10 times
Freshly dissected tibiae, lumbar vertebrae and calvarial bones were stripped of soft tissue, and placed in 20 ml of 10% neutral phosphate buffered formalin, After fixation, samples were washed with PBS, transferred to 70% ethanol for 4–24 h. All of the bones were dehydrated in graded ethanol (95%, two baths; 100%, four baths), for at least 4 hours each at 4°C. Following dehydration, they were placed in infiltration medium containing 85% destabilized methyl methacrylate (MMA; Sigma, St. Louis, MO), 15% dibutyl phthalate (Sigma), and 0.15% benzoyl peroxide (Polysciences, Inc., Warrington, PA). After three days under vacuum, the bones were removed from the infiltration MMA and placed on pre-polymerized base layers, covered with freshly catalyzed MMA, and incubated for two days at 37.8ºC in a radiant heat oven (Labline, Melrose Park, IL). Glass vials were removed from the oven, cooled at −20.8°C for 1 h, and the specimen blocks removed by breaking the glass. Specimen blocks were trimmed, sectioned, and sequentially polished. The BSEM was used to image the osteocyte lacunae on the sectioned bone surface in the standardized areas. With the analysis software, the images were thresholded. Then the areas of approximately 250 lacunae from each sample were measured in a blinded fashion.

Maternal Urine Phthalate Exposure Measurement
Cited 7 times
Maternal urine collected at approximately 17 wk gestation was shipped overnight, unrefrigerated, to the central biorepository in Oslo, Norway for immediate processing. Urine was transported in a commercially available urine transport tube with a preservative to prevent bacterial growth (chlorhexidine plus ethyl paraben and sodium propionate) (UAP Vacutainers; Becton-Dickinson) (Rønningen et al. 2006 (link)). In a previous quality control (QC) study in MoBa, no impact was found on the measurement of phthalates from this preservative (Ye et al. 2009 (link)). Analysis of urine for phthalate metabolites was conducted at the Norwegian Institute of Public Health. Methods have been previously described (Sabaredzovic et al. 2015 (link)). Briefly, on-line column switching liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry was used to measure 12 phthalate metabolites: monoethyl phthalate (MEP), a metabolite of diethyl phthalate; mono-iso-butyl phthalate (MiBP), a metabolite of di-iso-butyl phthalate; mono-n-butyl phthalate (MnBP), a metabolite of di-n-butyl phthalate; monobenzyl phthalate (MBzP), a metabolite of BBzP; mono-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (MEHP), mono-2-ethyl-5-hydroxyhexyl phthalate (MEHHP), mono-2-ethyl-5-oxoyhexyl phthalate (MEOHP), mono-2-ethyl-5-carboxypentyl phthalate (MECPP), and mono-2-methylcarboxyhexyl phthalate (MMCHP), metabolites of DEHP; and mono-4-methyl-7-hydroxyoctyl phthalate (OH-MiNP), mono-4-methyl-7-oxooctyl phthalate (oxo-MiNP), and mono-4-methyl-7-carboxyheptyl phthalate (cx-MiNP), metabolites of di-iso-nonyl phthalate (DiNP). A QC sample of pooled urine was created to assess batch-to-batch variability and assay precision. In each analytic batch, procedural blank samples, two in-house control urine samples and 4–6 QC pooled urine aliquots were included. External reference samples from the National Institute of Standards and Technology [NIST; Standard Reference Material (SRM) 3673] were also analyzed in every fourth analytical batch. Cases and controls were randomly allocated across analytic batches. The analyst was blinded to QC, case, and control samples. To account for urinary dilution, specific gravity was measured using a pocket refractometer (PAL-10S) from Atago. In brief, 180μL of the urine sample was placed onto the prism surface, and the specific gravity was measured with the refractometer. The coefficient of variation (CV) was <0.1% for the in-house control urine samples. In laboratory-blinded QC samples, average batch CVs were <5% .

Quantification of Phthalates and Non-Phthalate Plasticizers in Dust
Other than field
blanks, a laboratory procedural blank was also processed along with
each batch of 10 authentic samples to evaluate background contamination.
Trace amounts of glycerol monooleate (GMO), methyl oleate (MO), tributyl
citrate (TBC), tricapryl trimellitate (TCTM), dipropylene glycol dibenzoate
(DPGDB), TMPDDiB, and isopropyl palmitate (IPP) were detected in procedural
and field blanks, with an average mass of 3.54–43.1 ng. Eight
PAEs, including dimethyl phthalate (DMPh), diethyl phthalate (DEPh),
dibutyl phthalate (DBPh), diisobutyl phthalate (DiBPh), DEHPh, diphenyl
phthalate (DPPh), and butyl benzyl phthalate (BBzPh), were also detected
in procedural and field blanks, accounting for 0.02–2.6% of
the median levels detected in dust samples. Reported concentrations
of these chemicals were corrected with blank contamination and the
recoveries of their corresponding surrogate standards. The limit of
quantification (LOQ) of an analyte with background contamination was
defined as the average contamination levels in the blanks plus 10
times the standard deviation of the background contamination;43 (link) otherwise, the LOQ was determined as the instrumental
response 10 times the standard deviation of the noise. The LOQs of
target analytes ranged from 1.5 to 75 ng/g for NPPs and 4 to 110 ng/g
for PAEs. More details are summarized in Table S2.
Extraction efficiencies were evaluated via matrix
spiking tests, where approximately 50 mg of a pooled dust sample was
spiked with target and surrogate standards and processed with the
aforementioned method, along with two matrix blanks (only addition
of surrogate standards). After subtracting the levels in matrix blanks,
the recoveries of target chemicals from analytical procedures ranged
from 51 ± 15% to 136 ± 14% (Table S2). Matrix effects were evaluated for these plasticizers following
the method described in the previous study44 (link) and summarized in the SI. The determined
matrix effects ranged from 74 ± 6% to 127 ± 24% for NPPs
and 79 ± 16% to 147 ± 34% for PAEs (Table S2). Recoveries of surrogate standards during the analysis
of authentic samples ranged from 75 ± 16% to 139 ± 25%.

Histomorphometric Evaluation of Bone Samples
Bone samples were divided for histologic and histomorphometric evaluation. Samples were cut and fixed in 10% (w/v) formalin (Bio-Optica) for 3 days. For histomorphometric analysis, undecalcified samples were processed for plastic embedding, using a previously described protocol. Briefly, samples were dehydrated in a graded series of ethanol [50, 70 and 100% (v/v)], followed by immersion in xylol for 24 h. The undecalcified bone samples were infiltrated with a plastic embedding mixture using a three-step protocol. In each step, the samples were infiltrated for three consecutive days with daily freshly made solutions, containing 75% (v/v) of methylmethacrylate (MMA, Sigma-Aldrich) and 25% (v/v) of dibutyl phthalate (Prolabo) with increase in concentrations (0 g/mL; 0.01 g/mL and 0.025 g/mL) of benzoyl peroxide (Sigma-Aldrich). Polymerization was carried out at 37 °C for a week. The plastic blocks, containing the processed bone samples, were cut into 7 µm sections using a tungsten knife (Leica). After deplasticization, the sections were stained with toluidine blue staining. Trabecular separation (Tb.Sp) was determined using the Osteomeasure bone histomorphometry software (OsteoMetrics, OsteoMetrics, Inc.). The percentage of adipose tissue was calculated using a 15 to 11 points grid [38 (link), 39 (link)].

Manual Immunohistochemical Staining of FFPE Sections
Around 4-µm-thick FFPE sections were used for manual staining. Briefly, FFPE sections were deparaffinized in xylene-1 and xylene-2 for 5 min each, rehydrated in graded alcohol (100% ethanol, 90% ethanol, 70% ethanol, and 50% ethanol), dipping slides for 2 min in each. Slides were immersed in tris-ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) buffer (pH 9.0), heated in a domestic microwave oven at full power three times each for 5 min and left in buffer to cool at room temperature for at least 20 min. The sections were then incubated in 3% hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) for 30 min at room temperature to block endogenous peroxidase activity. Then placed in protein blocking for 20 min, and incubated with the primary antibody (anti-VDR) at dilution 1:4,000 in 1% bovine serum albumin/tris-buffered saline overnight in a humid chamber at 4 °C.
The following day, the slides were washed and incubated with 100 µL of biotinylated secondary antibody (SignalStain® Boost IHC Detection Reagent; Cell Signaling Technology) for 30 min in a humidified slide tray, then with 100 µL of streptavidin peroxidase at room temperature for 20 min. 3,3’-diaminobenzidine (DAB) was used following the manufacturer’s instructions (HRP kit; Cat# ab64264). Slides were dried on the tissue and kept for 4 min on a humidified slide tray, washed with distilled water for 5 min and counterstained with pre-diluted hematoxylin stain for 2 min and rinsed with running tap water. Dehydration with four series of graded alcohol (70% ethanol, 80% ethanol, 90% ethanol and absolute ethanol) by dipping slides for 5 min each, then cleared in two series of xylene for 5 min each. Lastly, slides were mounted with di-N-butyl phthalate in xylene (DPX) and air-dried before microscope examination. A benign BC slide was used as a control for anti-vitamin D antibody.
