Endocrine-Disrupting Chemicals: Some Actions of POPs on Female Reproduction

International Journal of Endocrinology, 2013
Persistent organic pollutants (POPs), such as polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) and dibenzofurans (PCDFs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), and polybrominated ethers (PBDEs), chloronaftalens (PCNs), and bisphenol A (BPA), are stable, lipophilic ...

Enduring autism‐like phenotypes and deregulated hypothalamic prosocial peptides after early‐life exposure to indoor flame retardants in male C57BL/6 mice

Journal of Neuroendocrinology, Volume 38, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) are neuroendocrine‐disrupting chemicals that produce adverse neurodevelopmental effects. PBDEs have been implicated as risk factors for autism spectrum disorder (ASD), which is characterized by abnormal psychosocial functioning and is commonly comorbid with cognitive deficits and sensory abnormalities ...

Impact of Environmental Exposure on Infant Sleep : The Exposome Approach

Journal 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.

Conserving the World's Specialist Riverine Birds

WIREs Water, Volume 13, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
Specialist riverine birds constitute a diverse bird group globally, highly adapted to rivers and streams. They are at risk from multiple threats to rivers, riparian zones and river catchments including impoundment, hydropower and abstraction; land‐use changes including urbanization and agricultural intensification; traditional and emerging pollutants ...

Polyphenols Regulate the Activity of Endocrine-Disrupting Chemicals, Having Both Positive and Negative Effects

Journal of Xenobiotics
Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are chemical substances that can interfere with any hormone action. They are categorized according to origin and use, such as industrial chemicals like polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and polybrominated biphenyls ...

On the Redox Activity of Urban Aerosol Particles: Implications for Size Distribution and Relationships with Organic Aerosol Components

Atmosphere, 2017
This article presents the distribution of the dithiothreitol-based (DTT) redox activity of water-soluble airborne particulate matter (PM) from two urban sites in the city of Thessaloniki, northern Greece in four size ranges (<0.49, 0.49–0.97, 0.97–3.0

Immunological studies in cattle exposed to polybrominated biphenyls [PDF]

Environmental Health Perspectives, 1978
The intactness of the immune system in cattle exposed to polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs) has been investigated by using several immunoassays. Eighty-seven animals have been studied, 35 control animals (not exposed to PBBs) and 52 animals exposed to PBBs (0.02-30 ppm/g fat equivalent).

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

Global 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 ...
