Postnatal hyperoxia or DEHP exposure leads to growth restriction and delayed lung development in newborn rats

Pediatrics and Neonatology, 2018
Background: Di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) is commonly used as a plasticizer in many medical devices. We previously showed that maternal DEHP exposure led to restricted growth and delayed lung maturation in newborn rats.

A Mechanistic Review of Environmental Stressor to Decode Their Effect on Congenital Malformations: A Developmental Toxicity

Journal of Biochemical and Molecular Toxicology, Volume 40, Issue 8, August 2026.
Environmental toxicants may disrupt developmental pathways via strong molecular docking interactions with hub FGF proteins (FGF9 and FGF4) like dibenzo‐p‐dioxin (−7.2 kcal/mol) at the ASN146 residue of FGF9, driving congenital malformations as revealed by PPI networks and toxicity profiling.

Lactobacillus plantarum TW1-1 Alleviates Diethylhexylphthalate-Induced Testicular Damage in Mice by Modulating Gut Microbiota and Decreasing Inflammation

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2019
Diethylhexylphthalate (DEHP), acting as an endocrine disruptor, disturbed reproductive health. Here, we evaluated the effects of Lactobacillus plantarum TW1-1 (L. plantarum TW1-1) on DEHP-induced testicular damage in adult male mice.

Green and Rapid Determination of Phthalates in Mineral Water From Virgin and Recycled PET Bottles

Journal of Mass Spectrometry, Volume 61, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the presence and quantification of phthalates released into mineral waters from virgin and recycled polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles. A green, solvent‐free analytical method based on solid‐phase microextraction (SPME) coupled with gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC/MS) was developed and validated to detect

The Endocrine Disrupting Compounds Bisphenol‐A and α‐Zeranol Mimic the Estrogen Transcriptional Program to Promote Proliferation and Stemness in Breast Cancer Cells

Molecular Carcinogenesis, Volume 65, Issue 8, Page 907-920, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Excessive activation of the estrogen receptor (ER) drives proliferation, progression, and the formation of breast cancer stem cells (CSCs) in ER‐positive breast cancer. Estrogenic endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs) found in plastics, water, and food are also able to bind to the ER.

Melatonin as a protector against endocrine disruption across tissues: A systematic review

Physiological Reports, Volume 14, Issue 15, August 2026.
Graphical Abstract showing the biological mechanisms by which melatonin protects tissues against endocrine disruption. Abstract Endocrine‐disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are widespread environmental pollutants that interfere with hormonal homeostasis and contribute to multisystem toxicity.
