Alterations in porcine intrahepatic sympathetic nerves after bisphenol A administration.

CONCLUSIONS: BPA caused an increase in the number of sympathetic nerve fibers as well as sympathetic nerve fibers which co-localized with neuropeptides in the porcine liver. The increase in CART and GAL were exceptionally high even at low BPA doses. BPA food contamination may dysregulate liver sympathetic innervation, and thereby may change the oxygenated blood supply, alter metabolism and disrupt the activity of hepatic parenchymal cells.
