Notes: BPA, bisphenol A; gi Number, GenInfo Identifier; LOAEL, lowest observed adverse effect level; NOAEL, no observed adverse effect level; TDI, tolerable daily intake value. Relative spot intensity of PHGPX (*p < 0.05, compared with control), ATP5O (***p < 0.001 and ****p < 0.0001, compared with control), GSTM5 (**p < 0.01, compared with control), NDUFA10 (*p < 0.05, compared with control), ASRGL1 (*p < 0.05, compared with control), and SOD2 (*p < 0.05 and **p < 0.01, compared with control) are presented as the mean ± SEM (n = 3 mice/replicate). Data were analyzed by one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) with multiple comparisons, with Tukey’s multiple comparison test. aMASCOT score is –log10(p), where p is the probability that the observed match is a random event. Individual scores > 30 indicate identity or extensive homology (p < 0.05). bCorn oil. cTDI = 50 μg/kg bw/day. dNOAEL = 5 mg/kg bw/day. eLOAEL = 50 mg/kg bw/day.
