Oncotarget

Oncotarget (a primarily oncology-focused, peer-reviewed, open access journal) aims to maximize research impact through insightful peer-review; eliminate borders between specialties by linking different fields of oncology, cancer research and biomedical sciences; and foster application of basic and clinical science.

Its scope is unique. The term "oncotarget" encompasses all molecules, pathways, cellular functions, cell types, and even tissues that can be viewed as targets relevant to cancer as well as other diseases. The term was introduced in the inaugural Editorial, Introducing Oncotarget.

As of January 1, 2022, Oncotarget has shifted to a continuous publishing model. Papers will now be published continuously within yearly volumes in their final and complete form and then quickly released to Pubmed.

ABSTRACT

Bisphenol A (BPA), a synthetic substance of endocrine disrupter, widely distributes in environment and can affect the health of ovarian follicles, thereby impacting the fertilization ability and pregnancy rate. However, the underlying mechanisms regarding how BPA disrupts the egg quality have not been fully revealed. In this study, we determine that BPA treated female mice display the decreasing HDAC7 expression in ovary and eggs compared to control. Moreover, the global levels of H3K9 and H4K16 acetylation abnormally increase after BPA treatment and recover partially upon HDAC7 compensation. Collectively, our study reveals that BPA deteriorates egg quality through HDAC7 suppression.
