Human biological monitoring of suspected endocrine-disrupting compounds Fanib... - 0 views

  •  
    Review of xenoestrogens and techniques for evaluation.  Brief discussion of the different EDCs is included, but the majority of the study is to evaluate the different testing techniques.

  •  
    Study proposed immune dysfunction as a result of EDC like BPA. Bisphenol A induced cell apoptosis as well as a reduction of nitric oxide.

Maternal Cypermethrin Exposure during the Perinatal... [PLoS One. 2014] - PubMed - NCBI - 0 views

  •  
    another study points to the negative development effects of EDCs.  In this animal study, Cypermethrin exposure in the Perinatal period, disrupts testes development which resulted in decreased Testosterone production in adults.

Exposure to Bisphenol A Prenatally or in Adulthood Promotes TH2 Cytokine Production Ass... - 0 views

  • BPA promotes the development of TH2 cells in adulthood and both TH1 and TH2 cells in prenatal stages by reducing the number of regulatory T cells.
  • Bisphenol A (BPA), an estrogenic endocrine-disrupting chemical (EDC
  • BPA is one of the most widespread EDCs.
  • ...12 more annotations...
  • BPA antagonizes the actions of thyroid hormone
  • Prenatal exposure to BPA has been shown to alter a variety of reproductive endocrine parameters, such as testosterone and luteinizing hormone levels
  • arly onset of sexual maturation of female mice
  • imbalanced T-helper (TH)1/TH2 immune responses have been demonstrated on exposure to BPA
  • indicating that BPA exerted its effects by reducing the number of Treg cells.
  • Exposure to BPA by subcutaneous injection in adulthood significantly promoted antigen-stimulated production of IL-4, IL-10, and IL-13 in TH2-skewed
  • BPA can leak from the placenta and accumulate in the fetus
  • We showed that prenatal exposure to BPA increased the production of a TH1 cytokine, IFN-γ, and a TH2 cytokine, IL-4, after the offspring developed, suggesting that prenatal exposure to BPA can induce persistent immunologic effects lasting into adulthood.
  • These results are consistent with a previous report that fetal exposure to BPA augmented TH1 and TH2 immune responses
  • our results clearly demonstrate that the production of TH2 cytokines is promoted by BPA in adult mice and in offspring during developmental exposure.
  • The decrease of Treg cells would predispose to immune dysfunction in aged individuals, explaining their higher risk of immune-mediated diseases, cancer, and infections.
  • BPA might cause these diseases. Thus, avoiding exposure to or promoting the excretion of BPA and other EDCs would help in preventing diseases and adverse health effects.

Effects of endocrine disruptors on obesity. [Int J Androl. 2008] - PubMed result - 0 views

  • Most recently, obesity has been proposed to be yet another adverse health effect of exposure to endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) during critical stages of development. Obesity is quickly becoming a significant human health crisis
  • The emerging idea of an association of EDCs and obesity expands the focus on obesity from intervention and treatment to include prevention and avoidance of these chemical modifiers.

Dog sperm quality decline is blamed on pet food chemicals | New Scientist - 0 views

  •  
    26 year study of dogs finds declining sperm count equivalent to that in men.  The decline was found to occur at a rate of 1.2% to 2.5% annually over course of study.  The authors pointed to EDC's in food.

Cadmium - a metallohormone? - 0 views

  •  
    Great review article on the endocrine disrupting role of Cadmium.  Cadmium binds to the ER-alpha inducing an estrogen signal.  Cadmium also binds to the androgen receptor as well.  This study proposes a similar activation of ER-alpha and AR by Cadmium.
