Human endometrial cell coculture reduces the endocrine disruptor toxicity on mouse embryo development [PDF]
Journal of Occupational Medicine and Toxicology, 2012 Backgrounds Previous studies suggested that endocrine disruptors (ED) are toxic on preimplantation embryos and inhibit development of embryos in vitro culture. However, information about the toxicity of endocrine disruptors on preimplantation development

Endocrine Disruptors and Obesity [PDF]
Current Obesity Reports, 2017 The purpose of this review was to summarise current evidence that some environmental chemicals may be able to interfere in the endocrine regulation of energy metabolism and adipose tissue structure.Recent findings demonstrate that such endocrine-disrupting chemicals, termed "obesogens", can promote adipogenesis and cause weight gain.

Impact of Chemical Endocrine Disruptors and Hormone Modulators on the Endocrine System
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022 There is growing concern regarding the health and safety issues of endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs). Long-term exposure to EDCs has alarming adverse health effects through both hormone-direct and hormone-indirect pathways.

Endocrine disruptors in foods: Overlooked factors contributing to the prevalence of obesity
Czech Journal of Food Sciences, 2023 Endocrine disruptors, also known as endocrine-disrupting chemicals, could mimic or interfere with the body's hormones. Indeed, naturally occurring endocrine disruptors have been widely identified in daily foods.

Ultrasensitive detection of endocrine disruptors via superfine plasmonic spectral combs
Light: Science & Applications, 2021 The apparent increase in hormone-induced cancers and disorders of the reproductive tract has led to a growing demand for new technologies capable of detecting endocrine disruptors. However, a long-lasting challenge unaddressed is how to achieve ultrahigh

Endocrine Disruptors and Prostate Cancer
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022 The role of endocrine disruptors (EDs) in the human prostate gland is an overlooked issue even though the prostate is essential for male fertility. From experimental models, it is known that EDs can influence several molecular mechanisms involved in ...
