Abstract：
:The tetrahydroxylated biphenyl-ketone 2,2',4,4'-tetrahydroxybenzophenone (BP2), one of twelve benzophenone-derived UV-filters, is used in cosmetic products and in packaging materials to protect these products from light induced damage. Recently published studies showed that BP2 exerts estrogenic activity; thus, it is an endocrine active chemical. We present data from a pharmacodynamic dose-response experiment with five dosages of BP2 applied per gavage to adult ovariectomized (ovx) rats for 5 days. Estradiol-valerate (E2) served as a control compound. The uterotrophic assay, proposed by the OECD, was modified to have a broader view on endocrine activity outside the urogenital tract to prevent that undesirable actions in other organs regulated by estrogens are missed. The gene expression levels of marker genes of estrogenic action were measured by semi-quantitative RT-PCR. Metabolic parameters were assessed by determination of the serum concentrations of leptin, cholesterol, high- and low-density lipoproteins, and triglycerides in the serum. Administration of BP2 at dosages of 10-1,000 mg/kg bodyweight led to changes of these parameters comparable to the changes in the E2 group with 0.6 mg/kg bodyweight. For the observed estrogenic activities of BP2, the "no observed adverse effect levels" were determined. Additionally, the data were further analyzed using the benchmark approach. If BP2 is transcutaneously absorbed in the human, the obtained threshold values would suggest refraining from the further use of BP2 as UV-filter in cosmetic products although additional toxicological studies should be conducted to clarify possible adverse effects.
