Dietary exposure to dioxins and PCBs in a large cohort of pregnant women: Results from the Norwegian Mother and Child Cohort Study (MoBa)

Environment International, 2013
Exposure to dioxins and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) during pregnancy and breastfeeding may result in adverse health effects in children. Prenatal exposure is determined by the concentrations of dioxins and PCBs in maternal blood, which reflect the ...

Dioxin and Dioxin-like Compounds and Human Health

Toxics, 2023
In epidemiological studies, associations of dioxin and dioxin-like (dl)-compound exposure with metabolic diseases, including diabetes and metabolic syndrome, in adults and with neurodevelopmental problems and earlier/later puberty in children have been suggested in the general population and in environmentally exposed populations [...]

Macrophage PARP7 Alleviates Septic Cardiomyopathy by Interacting With TBK1 and Suppressing TBK1‐Driven Inflammatory Response

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In septic cardiomyopathy, PARP7 directly binds TBK1 and mediates its ADP‐ribosylation, thereby repressing TBK1‐driven proinflammatory signaling in macrophages. ABSTRACT Septic cardiomyopathy is a life‐threatening complication of sepsis, and an uncontrolled inflammatory response represents a key pathogenic mechanism. PARP7 negatively regulates the IFN‐I

AHR‐Responsive Carbon Dots Orchestrate Skin Wound Healing and Colonic Mucosal Repair via Treg‐Mediated Macrophage Efferocytosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Guided by pharmacophore modeling and molecular docking, aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR)‐responsive carbon dots were synthesized. They bind directly to AHR and expand gut‐resident regulatory T (Treg) cells. Treg‐derived C‐C motif chemokine ligand 1 (CCL1) enhances macrophage efferocytosis, creating a pro‐regenetative niche that promotes colonic mucosal ...

Data‐Driven Pathways to Circular E‐Waste Management

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As the volume and complexity of electronic waste grow worldwide, regional and subnational systems are increasingly tasked with managing the environmental, economic, and social challenges of circular resource recovery. This paper focuses on Canada's e‐waste sector to examine how circular economy (ce) principles can be integrated into regional ...

Mechanistic Insights Into Luminol Chemiexcitation: The Role of the Amide Carbonyls

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
By means of quantum‐chemical calculations, we demonstrate that the 1,2‐dioxin ring forms following nitrogen release from parent luminol. We also identify alkoxide groups derived from the amide carbonyls of luminol as key enhancers of the chemiexcitation yield.

Exploring the Role of Competitiveness in Sustainability Standards: Insights From an Animal Welfare Scheme Adopted by Supermarkets

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Research on supermarket‐related voluntary sustainability standards (VSSs) is divided on whether competition helps or hinders efforts to reduce negative social and environmental impacts. This paper examines how the standardization process shapes these outcomes.

Recent Advances of Perovskite Oxides for Air Pollution Control Chemistry: The Closed Loop From Design to Application

EcoEnergy, EarlyView.
This review summarizes a descriptor‐guided framework for linking theoretical calculations, in situ/operando characterization, synthesis regulation, and application screening in functional materials. Emphasis is placed on dynamic structure–property relationships that enable low‐cost material design with enhanced activity, stability, and environmental ...
