Endocrine disrupter effects on the gonads and pubertY
Evidence accumulating the past decades indicates that human populations are exposed to environmental chemicals interfering with endocrine systems. There is growing concern of the potential adverse impact of exposure to such endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) on human health, based on observations in wildlife, animal model systems and reports of yet unexplained increased incidences of hormone...
متن کاملIntercalibration exercise using a stickleback endocrine disrupter screening assay.
The Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) is currently validating a short-term fish screening protocol for endocrine disrupters (estrogens, androgens, and their antagonists and aromatase inhibitors), using three core species: fathead minnow, Japanese medaka, and zebrafish. The main endpoints proposed for the first phase of validation of the screen are vitellogenin (VTG) c...
متن کاملSurvey on Incremental Information Extraction Using Relational Database
Information Extraction is the task of automatically extracting structured information from unstructured or semi-structured machine readable documents. In which extraction are expressed in the form of database query and query evaluated by using database system. Information extraction provide automated query generation components so that causual user do not have to learn query language in order t...
متن کاملEADB: an estrogenic activity database for assessing potential endocrine activity.
Endocrine-active chemicals can potentially have adverse effects on both humans and wildlife. They can interfere with the body's endocrine system through direct or indirect interactions with many protein targets. Estrogen receptors (ERs) are one of the major targets, and many endocrine disruptors are estrogenic and affect the normal estrogen signaling pathways. However, ERs can also serve as the...
متن کاملEpigenetic Regulation of Non-Lymphoid Cells by Bisphenol A, a Model Endocrine Disrupter: Potential Implications for Immunoregulation
Endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDC) abound in the environment since many compounds are released from chemical, agricultural, pharmaceutical, and consumer product industries. Many of the EDCs such as Bisphenol A (BPA) have estrogenic activity or interfere with endogenous sex hormones. Experimental studies have reported a positive correlation of BPA with reproductive toxicity, altered growth, an...
