Short-Term Transcriptomic Points of Departure Are Consistent with Chronic Points of Departure for Three Organophosphate Pesticides across Mouse and Fathead Minnow

Toxics, 2023
New approach methods (NAMs) can reduce the need for chronic animal studies. Here, we apply benchmark dose (concentration) (BMD(C))–response modeling to transcriptomic changes in the liver of mice and in fathead minnow larvae after short-term exposures (7

Environmental exposure to non-persistent endocrine disrupting chemicals and semen quality: An overview of the current epidemiological evidence

International Journal of Occupational Medicine and Environmental Health, 2018
Some of the recent publications have reported a decline in semen quality in the last few decades. This phenomenon is associated with environmental factors, particularly with exposure to endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs).

Environmental Smoke Exposure [PDF]

Hypertension, 2008
Passive smoking, or environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) exposure, is a significant public health concern. It is widespread and has been implicated in excess cardiovascular mortality.1 In the United States, as many as 50 000 cardiovascular deaths per year may be attributable to passive smoking.

Polygenic risk for schizophrenia and season of birth within the UK Biobank cohort [PDF]

, 2018
Background: There is strong evidence that people born in winter and in spring have a small increased risk of schizophrenia. As this ‘season of birth’ effect underpins some of the most influential hypotheses concerning potentially modifiable risk ...

Atmospheric oxidation of isoprene and 1,3-butadiene: influence of aerosol acidity and relative humidity on secondary organic aerosol [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2015
The effects of acidic seed aerosols on the formation of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) have been examined in a number of previous studies, several of which have observed strong linear correlations between the aerosol acidity (measured as nmol H+ m−3 air

Prediction of the water solubility by a graph convolutional-based neural network on a highly curated dataset

Journal of Cheminformatics
Water solubility is a relevant physico-chemcial property in environmental chemistry, toxicology, and drug design. Although the water solubility is besides the octanol–water partition coefficient, melting point, and boiling point a property with a large ...

All that is silver is not toxic: silver ion and particle kinetics reveals the role of silver ion aging and dosimetry on the toxicity of silver nanoparticles

Particle and Fibre Toxicology, 2018
Background When suspended in cell culture medium, nano-objects composed of soluble metals such as silver can dissolve resulting in ion formation, altered particle properties (e.g. mass, morphology, etc.), and modulated cellular dose.

Air Pollution Exposure Assessment for Epidemiologic Studies of Pregnant Women and Children: Lessons Learned from the Centers for Children’s Environmental Health and Disease Prevention Research [PDF]

, 2005
The National Children’s Study is considering a wide spectrum of airborne pollutants that are hypothesized to potentially influence pregnancy outcomes, neurodevelopment, asthma, atopy, immune development, obesity, and pubertal development. In this article

Reading, Writing, and Breathing [PDF]

, 2005
This report looks at the distribution of air toxics, respiratory hazard, and school children in the state of California. The report finds evidence of disproportionate exposure and a potential link between such exposure and school-level academic ...

Immunoprevalence to Six Waterborne Pathogens in Beachgoers at Boquerón Beach, Puerto Rico: Application of a Microsphere-Based Salivary Antibody Multiplex Immunoassay

Frontiers in Public Health, 2017
Waterborne infectious diseases are a major public health concern worldwide. Few methods have been established that are capable of measuring human exposure to multiple waterborne pathogens simultaneously using non-invasive samples such as saliva.
