From a toxin to an obesogen: a review of potential obesogenic roles of acrylamide with a mechanistic approach. [PDF]
Abstract Obesity and obesity-related disorders such as cancer, type 2 diabetes, and fatty liver have become a global health problem. It is well known that the primary cause of obesity is positive energy balance. In addition, obesity is the consequence of complex gene and environment interactions that result in excess calorie intake being

Obesogens in Children—An Uncharted Territory [PDF]
Obesogens are exogenous chemicals belonging to the group of endocrine-disrupting chemicals and are believed to interfere in obesity development. In children, several chemicals are under investigation, most commonly bisphenol A, phthalates, perfluorinated

New Insight Into Male Infertility: Deviation From Basic Tenets of Life. [PDF]
Male reproductive health faces mounting concern as global sperm concentration (SC) has declined markedly, with evidence linking this trend to environmental and lifestyle factors rather than natural variability. In parallel, rising rates of obesity, diabetes, and hypertension point to shared mechanisms with infertility, particularly those rooted in diet.

Obesogens, as environmental endocrine-disrupting chemicals, are supposed to have had an impact on the prevalence of rising obesity around the world over the last forty years. These chemicals are probably able to contribute not only to the development of obesity and metabolic disturbances in individuals, but also in their progeny, having the capability ...

Cetyl Alcohol Polyethoxylates Disrupt Metabolic Health in Developmentally Exposed Zebrafish
Alcohol polyethoxylates (AEOs), such as cetyl alcohol ethoxylates (CetAEOs), are high-production-volume surfactants used in laundry detergents, hard-surface cleaners, pesticide formulations, textile production, oils, paints, and other products. AEOs have

Nonylphenol Polyethoxylates Enhance Adipose Deposition in Developmentally Exposed Zebrafish
Alkylphenol polyethoxylates (APEOs), such as nonylphenol ethoxylates (NPEOs), are high-production-volume surfactants used in laundry detergents, hard-surface cleaners, pesticide formulations, textile production, oils, paints, and other products.
