Exposure to 4,4'-DDE in visceral adipose tissue and weight loss in adolescents from the Teen-LABS cohort. [PDF]
Obesity (Silver Spring)Abstract Objective Dichlorodiphenyldichloroethylene (DDE), an obesogen accumulating in adipose tissue, is released into circulation with weight loss, although its impact is underexplored among adolescents. We tested the association using an integrative translational approach of epidemiological analysis among adolescents with obesity and in vitro ...

Obesogenic endocrine disruptors and obesity: myths and truths [PDF]
, 2017 Obesogenic endocrine disruptors, also known as obesogens, are chemicals potentially involved in weight gain by altering lipid homeostasis and promoting adipogenesis and lipid accumulation. They included compounds to which human population is exposed over

Transgenerational effects of obesogens
Basic & Clinical Pharmacology & Toxicology, 2019 AbstractObesity and associated disorders are now a global pandemic. The prevailing clinical model for obesity is overconsumption of calorie‐dense food and diminished physical activity (the calories in—calories out model). However, this explanation does not account for numerous recent research findings demonstrating that a variety of environmental ...
