1. Reproductive toxicology of endocrine disruptors : effects of cadmium, phthalates and phytoestrogens on testicular steroidogenesis
Sammanfattning : A number of investigations during the last two decades describe adverse trends in male reproductive health, which have been proposed to be caused by environmental factors with endocrine disrupting properties. In contrast to many other toxicants, endocrine disruptors often do not show linear dose-response relationships typical of those found in traditional toxicological studies. LÄS MER
2. Mixture Effects of Environmental Contaminants
Sammanfattning : Chemical exposure in humans rarely consists of a single chemical. The everyday exposure is characterized by thousands of chemicals mainly present at low levels. Despite that fact, risk assessment of chemicals is carried out on a chemical-by-chemical basis although there is a consensus that this view is too simplistic. LÄS MER
3. Diverse effects of endocrine-disruptive chemicals on Leydig and adrenocortical cell steroidogenesis in rodents and humans
Sammanfattning : We are living in a man-made world and often exposed to different chemicals known as endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) that negatively influence our hormonal system. These compounds have the potential to interrupt a normal steroidogenesis and result in harmful effects on the reproductive health of humans and among other organisms. LÄS MER
