Fetal rat exposure to 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) reduces epididymal sperm number involving altered pituitary-testicular hormonal signaling as the proposed mode-of-action (MOA). To evaluate this MOA and compare TCDD to 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzofuran (TCDF), an in utero rat exposure and study was conducted. Endpoints included congener tissue levels and transcriptomes of maternal liver and fetal liver, testis, and pituitary. Decreased gonadotropin subunit mRNAs levels (Lhb and Fshb) and enriched signaling pathways including GNRH Signaling and
