Endocrine disruptor regulation of microRNA expression in breast carcinoma cells.

PLoS ONE, 2012
BackgroundSeveral environmental agents termed "endocrine disrupting compounds" or EDCs have been reported to bind and activate the estrogen receptor-α (ER). The EDCs DDT and BPA are ubiquitously present in the environment, and DDT and BPA levels in human

Perinatal exposure to the environmental pollutant butyl benzyl phthalate (BBP) induces sex-specific alterations in the neuro-immune-endocrine network in adult rats

Frontiers in Immunology
The plasticizer butyl benzyl phthalate (BBP), a ubiquitous endocrine disruptor, is commonly used in PVC products and can leach into the environment, leading to human exposure.

ARTS is essential for di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP)-induced apoptosis of mouse Leydig cells

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
As an extensively employed plasticizer in industrial applications, di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP) can induce apoptosis of mouse Leydig cells, yet the precise mechanism remains elusive.
