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 ...

The Synapse as a Central Target for Neurodevelopmental Susceptibility to Pesticides
The developmental period of the nervous system is carefully orchestrated and highly vulnerable to alterations. One crucial factor of a properly-functioning nervous system is the synapse, as synaptic signaling is critical for the formation and maturation ...

Impact of Environmental Exposure on Infant Sleep : The Exposome Approach
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.

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
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.

Pesticide residues in Junca Onion (Allium fistulosum) cultivated in Risaralda, Colombia
By 2050, the world population will reach 9.2 billion, increasing the food demand by twice. Lowering loss due to pests is still challenging, where pesticides play an important role, but its indiscriminate use causes inadequate residual amounts to be ...

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.
