MicroRNA‐130a‐3p Targets the Androgen‐Related Transcription Factor MAFB: Effects on Proliferation, Migration, Apoptosis, and Cell Cycle in Hypospadias

Pediatric Discovery, EarlyView.
MicroRNA‐130a‐3p targets and inhibits MAFB expression, leading to the development of hypospadimas. MicroRNA‐130a‐3p inhibits the expression of MAFB, disrupts the normal processes of cell proliferation, migration, cell apoptosis, and cycle progression, and ultimately leads to the development of hypospadias.

Biochemical pathways and enhanced degradation of dioctyl phthalate (DEHP) by sodium alginate immobilization in MBR system

Water Science and Technology, 2021
As one of the most representative endocrine disrupting compounds, dioctyl phthalate (DEHP) is difficult to remove due to its bio-refractory characteristic.

Dietary Intervention and DEHP Reduction

Environmental Health Perspectives, 2011
Rudel et al. (2011) reported a surprising reduction in metabolites of bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) in their dietary intervention study, considering that—to the best of the industry’s knowledge—the plasticizer is no longer used in the food packaging products that the authors removed from the subjects’ dietary routine.

Nanomaterials' Multigenerational Effects by Single and Joint Exposure in Non‐mammalian Models

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nanotoxicology has mainly focused on single‐generation studies, leaving multigenerational toxicity underexplored. Having animal welfare recently gained importance, we aimed to provide the state‐of‐the‐art of knowledge about multigenerational effects in non‐mammalian models in the case of nanomaterials (NM) single and joint exposure to other ...

Phthalate Metabolite, Mono(2‐Ethyl‐5‐Hydroxyhexyl) Phthalate (MEHHP), Promotes Uterine‐Fibroid–Associated Phenotypes in Myometrial Stem Cell‐Derived 3D Organoids

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how phthalate exposure contributes to uterine fibroid (UF) development by studying the effects of the Mono‐(2‐ethyl‐5‐hydroxyhexyl) phthalate (MEHHP), a metabolite of Di(2‐ethylhexyl) phthalate, on myometrial stem cells (MMSCs).

The synergistic toxicity effect of di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate and plant growth disturbs the structure and function of soil microbes in the rhizosphere

Environment International, 2022
Di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) is a dominant phthalic acid ester in the environment and commonly occurs at high concentration in agricultural soils. Its influence on the soil microbial community has been widely reported, while research related to its

Bisphenols and Phthalates in Bottled Mineral Water: First Evidence of Co‐Occurrence, Estrogenic Activity, and Health Risk in Brazil

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bisphenol A (BPA), its structural analogs, and phthalates are synthetic chemicals widely used, with documented endocrine‐disrupting activity. This study aimed to develop and validate a selective multiresidue analytical method for the simultaneous determination of BPA, 10 bisphenol analogs, and six phthalates in PET‐bottled mineral water.

Micro‐Nanoplastics Significantly Increase Adverse Events and Economic Burden Associated With Carotid Endarterectomy: A Health Economic Modelling Evaluation

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Current research reports that micro‐nanoplastics may increase the burden of cardiovascular disease with significant human and economic consequences. The detection of plastic particles in biological matrices is challenging and rigorous research is required to investigate the clinical and broader public health implications of microplastics.

Transient exposure to environmentally realistic concentrations of di-(2-ethylhexyl)-phthalate during sensitive windows of development impaired larval survival and reproduction success in Japanese medaka

Toxicology Reports, 2020
Di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) is a well-known endocrine disruptor and it is ubiquitously distributed in the environment. However, very few studies have investigated the effects of short-term exposure to environmentally realistic concentrations of ...

Multi-omics reveals the mechanisms of DEHP driven pulmonary toxicity in ovalbumin-sensitized mice

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2023
The plasticizer di- (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) is considered a risk factor for allergic diseases and has attracted public attention for its adverse effects on health.
