Administration of di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) to primary cultures of chick embryo fibroblasts brought about a decrease in cell proliferation rate after 48 h and an inhibition of both DNA and protein synthesis measured by [3H]thymidine and [3H]leucine, respectively, after 48 h. The growth of chick embryo lung rudiments in vitro was also depressed by DEHP treatment. Lung rudiment were smaller in DEHP-treated embryos after 6 days' treatment. These results indicate that DEHP has a cytostatic effect on embryonic cells and tissues.

In vitro evaluation of plasticizer activity on the growth and metabolism of chick embryo fibroblasts and on the development of chick embryo lungs.

Abstract

Administration of di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) to primary cultures of chick embryo fibroblasts brought about a decrease in cell proliferation rate after 48 h and an inhibition of both DNA and protein synthesis measured by [3H]thymidine and [3H]leucine, respectively, after 48 h. The growth of chick embryo lung rudiments in vitro was also depressed by DEHP treatment. Lung rudiment were smaller in DEHP-treated embryos after 6 days' treatment. These results indicate that DEHP has a cytostatic effect on embryonic cells and tissues.
