The associations between p,p’-DDE levels and plasma levels of lipoproteins and their subclasses in an elderly population determined by analysis of lipoprotein content [PDF]
Lipids in Health and Disease, 2020 Background Lipoproteins at aberrant levels are known to play a role in cardiovascular disease. The metabolite of the insecticide dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT), p,p’-dichlorodiphenyldichloroethylene (p,p’-DDE), physically associates with lipids ...

Genetic and methylation variation in the CYP2B6 gene is related to circulating p,p′-dde levels in a population-based sample [PDF]
Environment International, 2017 Objectives: Since the metabolism of the organochlorine pesticide dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) is not fully known in humans, we evaluated if circulating levels of a major breakdown product of DDT, p,p′-DDE, were related to genome-wide genetic and
