Endocrine System and Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals(EDCs).

open access: yesJournal of Toxicologic Pathology, 2001
Recently, much has been focused on the potential for a wide range of chemicals to interact with the disruption of the endocrine system in humans and animals. Some of those chemicals have been implicated as endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs). We represent this review that the current endocrine systems including of molecular biology and effects of ...

A Cell-Based Method to Detect Agonist and Antagonist Activities of Endocrine-Disrupting Chemicals on GPER

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2020
Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are exogenous compounds that impact endogenous hormonal systems, resulting in adverse health effects. These chemicals can exert their actions by interfering with several pathways.

Endocrine disrupting chemicals and male fertility: from physiological to molecular effects

open access: yesFrontiers in Public Health, 2023
The deleterious effects of chemical or non-chemical endocrine disruptors (EDs) on male fertility potential is well documented but still not fully elucidated. For example, the detection of industrial chemicals’ metabolites in seminal plasma and follicular

The Increasing Prevalence in Intersex Variation from Toxicological Dysregulation in Fetal Reproductive Tissue Differentiation and Development by Endocrine-Disrupting Chemicals

open access: yesEnvironmental Health Insights, 2016
An increasing number of children are born with intersex variation (IV; ambiguous genitalia/hermaphrodite, pseudohermaphroditism, etc.). Evidence shows that endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) in the environment can cause reproductive variation through ...
