Bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate, commonly referred to as DEHP, is a synthetic compound primarily used as a plasticizer[1]. Exposure to Bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate can have various adverse effects on organisms, such as impaired reproduction and development, cancer, altered metabolism, and neurological and behavioral disorders[2].
In vitro, Bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (50μM and 150μM; 48h) and MEHP induce glucose and lipid metabolic abnormalities in hepatocytes[3]. Bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (0-80µM; 48h) significantly inhibited mouse TM3 Leydig cells viability and induced cell apoptosis[4].
In vivo, Bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (5/10mg/kg/day; 16 weeks; p.o.) exposure elevates plasma glucose and disrupts hepatic lipid metabolism in mice[3]. Chronic, low-level exposure to Bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (37µg/kg; 34 days; p.o.) enhances OVA-induced allergic lung inflammation in mice[5]. Prenatal exposure to Bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (20 and 200μg/kg/day and 200, 500 and 750mg/kg/day; p.o.) disrupts ovarian function in a transgenerational manner in female mice[6].

| Cell experiment [1]: | |
Cell lines | Mouse TM3 Leydig cells |
Preparation Method | TM3 cells were seeded at 1 × 104 cells per well in a 96-well plate and treated with the indicated concentrations of Bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (0-80µM) in the presence or absence of N-Acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) (5mM), or 3-Methyladenine (3-MA) (1mM) for 48h. Cell viability was determined by adding MTT (final concentration: 0.5 mg/mL), and the absorbance of the samples was measured at a wavelength of 570nm using a spectrophotometer. |
Reaction Conditions | 0-80µM; 48h |
Applications | Bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate significantly inhibited mouse TM3 Leydig cells viability and induced cell apoptosis. |
| Animal experiment [2]: | |
Animal models | Female BALB/c mice (6–8 weeks of age) |
Preparation Method | To mimic the exposure that humans typically encounter in daily life, female mice were administered a daily oral gavage of Bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate or MEHP at the human TDI dose determined by the EU Scientific Committee for Toxicity, Ecotoxicity, and the Environment , which is 37μg/kg BW, for a study period of 34 days. After the initial administration of phthalate for 20 consecutive days, the mice were immunized with OVA, to induce mild allergic lung inflammation. Control mice were orally administered 0.33% ethanol in corn oil, as a vehicle control. |
Dosage form | 37µg/kg; 34 days; p.o. |
Applications | Chronic, low-level exposure to Bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate enhances OVA-induced allergic lung inflammation in mice. |
