Endocrine disruptors and endometriosis
Reproductive Toxicology, 2023Endometriosis is a hormone-dependent inflammatory gynecological disease of reproductive-age women. It is clinically and pathologically characterized by the presence of functional endometrium as heterogeneous lesions outside the uterine cavity. The two major symptoms are chronic pelvic pain and infertility, which profoundly affect women's reproductive ...

Abstract During the past 50 years, there has been a huge increase in the number of chemical substances used worldwide as plasticizers, pesticides, detergents, paints, metal food cans, flame retardants, cosmetics, and chemical wastes, which exhibit the potential to interfere with the endocrine system of humans and animals. In addition, it

Endocrine disruptor global policy
2021Over the past several decades, scientific consensus has grown around the concept and evidence for human health impacts from exposure to endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs). A series of publications have now demonstrated considerable economic costs of EDC exposure-induced adverse health outcomes.

Man does not come into the world pre-determined. The lifetime set of environmental conditions impinging on a given individual has been termed the ambiome, which together with the genome and the proteome determines each individual's development and construction. Among the most important elements making up the ambiome are endocrine disruptors.

Endocrine disruptors and obesity
Nature Reviews Endocrinology, 2015The increasing incidence of obesity is a serious global public health challenge. Although the obesity epidemic is largely fueled by poor nutrition and lack of exercise, certain chemicals have been shown to potentially have a role in its aetiology. A substantial body of evidence suggests that a subclass of endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs), which ...

Endocrine Disruptors and Human Health
Mini-Reviews in Medicinal Chemistry, 2010Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are a group of diversely natural compounds or synthetic chemicals that can interfere with the programming of normal endocrine-signalling pathways during pre- and neonatal life, thus leading to adverse consequences later in life.

Endocrine Disruptors: From Endocrine to Metabolic Disruption
Annual Review of Physiology, 2011Synthetic chemicals currently used in a variety of industrial and agricultural applications are leading to widespread contamination of the environment. Even though the intended uses of pesticides, plasticizers, antimicrobials, and flame retardants are beneficial, effects on human health are a global concern.
