Several in vitro tests, including transcriptome analysis of neural cells, were performed to assess the capacity 39 pesticides act as thyroid hormone disruptors (THD). Although some elicit a cellular response, which interferes with signaling, we found no evidence that they can receptor agonists or antagonists. We conclude nuclear receptors are not common targets THD, and pesticide neurodevelopme...

Although the biokinetics, metabolism, and chemical toxicity of atorvastatin calcium are well known, until recently little attention was paid to the potential toxic effects of atorvastatin calcium on re-production and development in mammals. In recent years, it has been shown that atorvastatin calcium is a developmental toxicant when given orally or subcutaneously (SC) to mice. Decreased fertili...

Cadmium (Cd) is an environmental toxicant of public health significance worldwide. Diet the main Cd exposure source in non-occupationally exposed and non-smoking populations. Metal transporters for iron (Fe), zinc (Zn), calcium (Ca), manganese (Mn) are involved assimilation distribution to cells throughout body. Due extremely slow elimination rate, most retained by cells, where it exerts toxici...

stachys lavandulifolia is used as the herbal tea and its wide and potent medical effects have been reported for the extract in animal studies. this study aimed to find the safety profile of the extract to find the appropriate doses for further human studies. the aerial parts of the plant were air-dried and the hydroalcoholic extract was obtained and concentrated by percolation method with 140 m...
