Association of environmental chemicals & estrogen metabolites in children
BACKGROUND The prevalence of pediatric hormonal disorders and hormonally-sensitive cancers are rising. Chemicals including bisphenol A (BPA), phthalates, parabens, 4-nonylphenol (4NP) and triclosan have been linked to disruption of endocrine pathways and altered hormonal status in both animal and human studies. Additionally, changes in estrogen metabolism have been associated with pediatric end...
متن کاملErratum: “Phthalates and Childhood Asthma: Revealing an Association through Urinary Biomarkers”
Exposure to phthalates, substances used as plasticizers in a large number of consumer goods, can occur by ingestion, inhalation, or skin contact. Children—who are uniquely vulnerable to adverse health effects of environmental exposures because of their still-developing neuro logical, immunological, and respiratory systems—can receive particularly high exposures due to more frequent hand-to-mout...
متن کاملIdentification of environmental chemicals with estrogenic activity using a combination of in vitro assays.
Environmental chemicals that function as estrogens have been suggested to be associated with an increase in disease and dysfunctions in animals and humans. To characterize chemicals that may act as estrogens in humans, we have compared three in vitro assays which measure aspects of human estrogen receptor (hER)-mediated estrogenicity. Chemicals were first tested for estrogen-associated transcri...
متن کاملA stable fish reporter cell line to study estrogen receptor transactivation by environmental (xeno)estrogens.
Cross-species differences between human and fish estrogen receptor (ER) binding by environmental chemicals have been reported. To study ER transactivation in a fish cellular context, we stably co-transfected the PLHC-1 fish hepatoma cell line with a rainbow trout estrogen receptor (rtER) and the luciferase reporter gene driven by an estrogen response element (ERE). This new cell model, called P...
متن کاملComparing Effects of a 12-Week Aerobic Interval Training with and without Fennel on Metabolic Syndrome Indices and Estrogen Metabolites in Obese and Menopausal Women
Background and Objectives: Decreases in metabolism of estrogen and plasma levels of estrogen are associated with increased metabolic syndrome and cancer risk factors in postmenopausal women. The objective of this study was to investigate effects of a 12-week aerobic interval training with and without fennel consumption on metabolic syndrome indices and estrogen metabolites in obese and menopaus...
