The Ovary as a Target Organ for New Generation Bisphenols Toxicity

open access: yesToxics
Bisphenols (BPs) are a group of organic compounds used extensively in plastics, coatings, and epoxy resins; they have been of concern recently due to their endocrine-disrupting effects. Among these, bisphenol A (BPA) is the most studied.

Bisphenol A Induces DNA Damage and Differential Cytotoxicity in Thyroid Cells: High‐Dose Effects Challenge Regulatory Thresholds

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bisphenol A (BPA), a ubiquitous environmental endocrine disruptor, has been implicated in carcinogenesis; however, its effects on thyroid cells remain unclear. This study investigated BPA‐induced cytotoxicity and genotoxicity in thyroid cell lines, including normal follicular (Nthy‐ori 3‐1), papillary carcinoma (TPC‐1 and BCPAP) and anaplastic
