Cardiac myofilament function is not affected by bisphenol A (BPA) or S (BPS) in mice of either sex. Hearts excised from male and female CD1 mice were perfused with BPA (1 nM), BPS (1 nM), BPS + PHTPP (1 μM), or vehicle (0.0001% ethanol, Control) using a Langendorff apparatus. Cardiac myofilaments were isolated and function assessed using an actomyosin MgATPase assay. (A) Actomyosin MgATPase-calcium curves; (B) Actomyosin MgATPase EC50 values after; and (C) Hill coefficients of actomyosin MgATPase-calcium curves with BPA or BPS treatment of hearts from female mice. (D) Cardiac actomyosin MgATPase-calcium relationships; (E) Actomyosin MgATPase EC50 values; and (F). Hill coefficient of myofilaments isolated from hearts of male mice following BPA or BPS treatment. N = 10 for all groups. Values presented are mean ± SEM.
