Pregnane X Receptor Mediates Atherosclerosis Induced by Dicyclohexyl Phthalate in LDL Receptor-Deficient Mice

Cells, 2022
Plastic-associated endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) have been implicated in the etiology of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in humans, but the underlying mechanisms remain elusive.

Tailoring High‐Valent Iron‐Oxo Species Redox via Extended π‐Fe3d–O2p Orbital Overlapping Toward Chemical‐Efficient Water Purification

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
We address the long‐standing challenge of reactivity–selectivity trade‐off by precisely tuning the redox properties of Fe(IV), rather than simply accelerating its formation, to enable chemically efficient and low‐emission water treatment. ABSTRACT High‐valent iron oxo species (Fe(IV)) are attractive for wastewater treatment because of their high ...

Low-level plasticizer exposure and all-cause and cardiovascular disease mortality in the general population

Environmental Health, 2022
Background Plasticizers, also called phthalates, are a group of chemicals widely used in daily life. A previous report showed no significant association between phthalate metabolite concentrations and mortality. We investigated the association of urinary

Crystal structure and photoluminescent properties of a new EuIII–phthalate–acetate coordination polymer

Acta Crystallographica Section E: Crystallographic Communications, 2022
A new coordination polymer, poly[(acetato)aqua(μ3-phthalato)europium(III)], [Eu(C8H4O4)(CH3O2)(H2O)]n or [EuIII(phth)(OAc)(H2O)] (phth2− = phthalate and OAc− = acetate) was synthesized and characterized, revealing it to be a supramolecular assembly of ...

Phthalates and risk of endometriosis [PDF]

Environmental Research, 2013
Phthalates are ubiquitous environmental chemicals with endocrine disruptive properties. The impact of these chemicals on endocrine-related disease in reproductive-age women is not well understood.To investigate the relationship between urinary phthalate metabolite concentrations and the risk of a hormonally-driven disease, endometriosis, in ...

The impact of phthalate on reproductive function in women with endometriosis

Reproductive Medicine and Biology, 2021
Background Endometriosis is a common gynecological condition in which stromal or glandular epithelium is implanted in extrauterine locations. Endometriosis causes detrimental effects on the granulosa cells, and phthalate interferes with the biological ...

Testis exposure to unopposed/elevated activin A in utero affects somatic and germ cells and alters steroid levels mimicking phthalate exposure

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
Correct fetal testis development underpins adult male fertility, and TGFβ superfamily ligands control key aspects of this process. Transcripts encoding one such ligand, activin A, are upregulated in testes after sex determination and remain high until ...

Associations between Urinary Phthalate Metabolites with BDNF and Behavioral Function among European Children from Five HBM4EU Aligned Studies

Toxics
Based on toxicological evidence, children’s exposure to phthalates may contribute to altered neurodevelopment and abnormal regulation of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF).
