Immunomodulatory effects of environmental endocrine disrupting chemicals

Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, 2012
During recent decades more than 100,000 new chemicals have been introduced as common consumer products into our environment. Among these chemicals, endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are of particular concern owing to their toxicity in animal studies ...

Environmental chemical exposures and breast cancer [PDF]

, 2016
As a hormone-sensitive condition with no single identifiable cause, breast cancer is a major health problem. It is characterized by a wide range of contributing factors and exposures occurring in different combinations and strengths across a lifetime ...

Collapse of superconductivity in cuprates via ultrafast quenching of phase coherence [PDF]

, 2018
The possibility of driving phase transitions in low-density condensates through the loss of phase coherence alone has far-reaching implications for the study of quantum phases of matter.

Early-life exposure to endocrine disrupting chemicals associates with childhood obesity [PDF]

Annals of Pediatric Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2018
Increasing prevalence of childhood obesity poses threats to the global health burden. Because this rising prevalence cannot be fully explained by traditional risk factors such as unhealthy diet and physical inactivity, early-life exposure to endocrine ...

Removal efficiencies and risk assessment of endocrine-disrupting chemicals at two wastewater treatment plants in South China

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021
Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) in the effluent from wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are an important pollutant sources of the aquatic system. In this study, the removal efficiencies of eight typical EDCs at two domestic WWTPs in Dongguan City,

Evolution of the Fermi surface with carrier concentration in Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_{8+\delta} [PDF]

, 1996
We show, by use of angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, that underdoped Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_{8+\delta} appears to have a large Fermi surface centered at (\pi,\pi), even for samples with a T_c as low as 15 K.

Potential occupational exposure of parents to endocrine disrupting chemicals, adverse birth outcomes, and the modification effects of multi-vitamins supplement and infant sex

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2022
Background: Maternal occupational exposure to endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) may have adverse effect on birth outcomes. However, little is known about paternal EDCs exposure and the combined effect of parental exposure on birth outcomes ...
