Glucocorticoids modulate drug transporter function in human fetal brain endothelial cells

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend P‐glycoprotein and breast cancer resistance protein are the most prominent drug transporters at the fetal blood–brain barrier. We isolated primary human fetal brain endothelial cells from early and mid‐gestation cerebral microvessels and exposed them to glucocorticoids cortisol and dexamethasone in vitro.

Residence Near Agricultural Crops at Birth and Risk of Adult Testicular Germ Cell Tumors: A French Nationwide Case–Control Study Using Historical Aerial GIS Data

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, Volume 159, Issue 5, Page 1153-1166, 1 September 2026.
As the incidence of testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs) rises, prenatal exposure to agricultural pesticides may represent an important risk factor. Here, geographic information system‐based measures of farmland proximity at birth were used as a proxy for early‐life pesticide exposure in France, a major pesticide consumer.

Schedule‐dependent neuroprotection by pioglitazone in a novel model of α‐synucleinopathy in rats: Integrated behavioural and histological outcomes

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 15, Page 4227-4245, August 2026.
Background and Purpose α‐Synucleinopathies are neurodegenerative disorders characterized by the aggregation and propagation of misfolded α‐synuclein. In Parkinson's disease (PD), the most common α‐synucleinopathy, the progression of motor and nonmotor deficits, and dopaminergic neuron loss, are closely linked to the spreading of misfolded α‐synuclein ...

Impact of Environmental Exposure on Infant Sleep : The Exposome Approach

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, Volume 35, Issue 4, August 2026.
This review explores how exposure to environmental pollutants during the first 1000 days of life may affect infant sleep. Evidence suggests potential links between chemical exposures and sleep disturbances, underscoring the need for more research on early‐life vulnerability and the impact of pollutants in air, diet, and breast milk.

Organochlorine pesticides and their residues in surface waters of Albania

open access: yesZaštita Materijala, 2018
This study presents concentrations of organochlorine pesticides and their residues in some water ecosystems of Albania. The water samples were collected in three ports of Adriatic Sea (Ports of Vlora, Durres and Porto-Romano), in four rivers (Semani ...

Subacute Exposure to Aldrin, Endosulfan and Lindane Differentially Alters Metabolic and Inflammatory Gene Expression in White and Brown Adipose Tissue of Male Rats

open access: yesCell Biochemistry and Function, Volume 44, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Persistent organic pollutants such as organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) have been implicated in obesity and metabolic dysfunction. As they bioaccumulate in adipose tissue, OCPs may act as obesogens, but in vivo evidence for aldrin, endosulfan and lindane is limited.

Surface water quality impacts from organic versus conventional agricultural systems

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, Volume 55, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
Abstract Agriculture is integrally intertwined with water, yet we have little information about how the different approaches to growing food influence water quality. Food production through different strategies is driven by economic and environmental concerns. Organic agriculture has increased for several decades and is projected to continue.

Basic Notions and Innovations in Electrochemical Advanced Oxidation Processes for Water Treatment

open access: yesSmall Science, Volume 6, Issue 7, July 2026.
Electrochemical advanced oxidation processes effectively degrade persistent organic pollutants, turning polluted water into a clean resource. Through the use of reactive species, hybrid systems, and computational modeling these approaches optimize treatment and open the door to innovative, sustainable next‐generation water purification technologies ...

Phytodetoxification of Lindane (γ‐Hexachlorocyclohexane) With Plants Expressing a Bacterial Dechlorinase

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 7, July 2026.
Transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana engineered to express the linA (dehydrochlorinase) gene of Sphingobium japonicum strain UT26 manages to remove the persistent contaminant lindane from soil. ABSTRACT The construction and performance of plants capable of detoxifying the organochlorine pesticide (lindane, γ‐hexachlorocyclohexane or γ‐HCH) is reported.

Ageing in Honeybees: Telomere Length Is Driven by Climate and Resource Availability Rather Than Urbanisation or Pollution

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 7, July 2026.
We analysed telomere length in 981 honeybee foragers sampled across 57 sites spanning a ~1000 km gradient of urbanisation, environmental pollution, climate and floral resources in central Argentina. Telomere length declined with increasing mean annual temperature and floral abundance, while showing no association with urbanisation or chemical ...
