The environmental problem of BPA pollution has seriously endangered the health of humans and animals. As an essential trace element, the health problems caused by insufficient intake of selenium have always been widespread. Under toxic and other harmful stimuli, severe endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is one of multitude factors leading to death such as apoptosis and necrotic apoptosis. For investigating the damage of BPA and selenium deficiency combined effect to the myocardial tissue of broilers and the role of ER stress, 1-day-old broilers were fed with toxic feed and selenium deficiency feed for 35 days. Histopathological results showed that the combined exposure of BPA and low selenium resulted in more severe necrosis of cardiomyocytes in broilers than the single exposure, but there was no significant change in apoptosis compared with single exposure. Molecular biology studies showed that NO-dependent ER stress induced by BPA increased the expression of necroptosis related genes in myocardium of selenium deficient broilers, but had no effect on apoptosis pathway. In conclusion, our records state that the NO-dependent ER stress caused by combined exposure of BPA and low selenium can cause serious damage to the myocardial tissue of broilers by promoting the activation of the necroptosis pathway.
