Endocrine disruptors and pregnancy. [PDF]
Sensitivity to endocrine disruptors is higher in early life. Endocrine disruptor chemicals can be passed from pregnant women to their babies through the placenta or breast milk during lactation, leading to long-term and potentially permanent adverse effects.This review evaluates the effects of endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) on pregnancy by ...

Law and science combine in the estimation of risks from endocrine disruptors (EDs) and actions for their regulation. For both, dose–response models are the causal link between exposure and probability (or percentage change) of adverse response.

Endocrine disruptors and children's health. [PDF]
Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are environmental contaminants that disrupt hormonal regulation by mimicking, inhibiting, or modifying endocrine signaling pathways. EDCs are commonly present in plastics, pesticides, industrial byproducts, and personal care products and pose substantial health risks, particularly to vulnerable groups such as ...

The Impact of Endocrine Disruptors on Endocrine Targets
Endocrine disruption represents one of the most controversial environmental issues of our époque. So far, many substances, both natural and artificial, have been recognized to interfere with endocrine signaling pathways. In intact laboratory animals, this interaction has been documented to generate adverse health outcomes by impairing normal functions.

The Effects of Nanomaterials as Endocrine Disruptors [PDF]
In recent years, nanoparticles have been increasingly used in several industrial, consumer and medical applications because of their unique physico-chemical properties. However, in vitro and in vivo studies have demonstrated that these properties are also closely associated with detrimental health effects.

The Impact of Endocrine Disruptors on Endocrine Targets [PDF]
The potential effect of the so-called endocrine disruptors (EDCs) or xenoestrogens on human health and the proven effect on wildlife have got considerable attention in the scientific community. Endocrine disruption represents one of the most controversial environmental issues despite the fact that many substances, both natural and artificial, have been
