OBJECTIVE
To investigate the inhibitory mechanisms of testosterone (T) biosynthesis in rats exposed to dibutyl phthalate (DBP).
METHODS
Male Wistar rats were randomly divided into five groups by weight, including 0.25, 0.50, 1.00, 2.00 g/kg DBP groups and corn oil control group, with 16 rats in each
Dibutyl-phthalate (DBP) is a ubiquitous environmental contaminant. However, its neurotoxic effects on neonatal, immature or mature brains remain unclear. Here, we aimed to investigate the neurotoxicity of perinatal exposure of DBP on rodent offspring animals. Pregnant rats received intragastric DBP
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effects of prepubertal continuous exposure to dibutyl phthalate (DBP) on the testis development in SD rats.
METHODS
Twenty-one-day-old weanling prepubertal male SD rats were randomly divided into a control (n = 24) and an experiment group (n = 54), gavaged daily with
OBJECTIVE
We aim to investigate the neurotoxicity induced by perinatal exposure of dibutyl phthalate (DBP) on the immature and mature offspring animals using a rodent model.
METHODS
Pregnant rats were given intragastric administration of 500mg/kg body weight DBP daily from gestational day 6 to
Phthalates are industrial chemicals used as plasticizers in food packaging, medical devices, and toys, as well as cosmetics used primarily by women. Epidemiological studies in women and animal studies using rodents have reported associations between phthalate exposures and adverse reproductive
Phthalates have a history of reproductive toxicity in animal models and associations with adverse reproductive outcomes in women. Human exposure to dibutyl phthalate (DBP) occurs via consumer products (7-10 μg/kg/day) and medications (1-233 μg/kg/day). Most DBP toxicity studies have focused on high
Male reproductive tract abnormalities associated with testicular dysgenesis in humans also occur in male rats exposed gestationally to some phthalate esters. We examined global gene expression in the fetal testis of the rat following in utero exposure to a panel of phthalate esters. Pregnant
Dibutyl phthalate (DBP) is recognized as an environmental endocrine disruptor that has been detected in fetal and postnatal samples. Recent evidence found that in utero DBP exposure was associated with an increase of adipose tissue weight and serum lipids in offspring, but the precise mechanism is
Environmental exposure to phthalates during intrauterine development might increase susceptibility to neoplasms in reproductive organs such as the prostate. Although studies have suggested an increase in prostatic lesions in adult animals submitted to perinatal exposure to phthalates, the molecular
Phthalates and bisphenol A, classified as endocrine disruptors, have weak estrogenic, anti-androgenic properties, and affect thyroid hormone regulation. The aim of this study on male rats was to compare the subacute toxic effects of low doses of single compounds (bis (2 -ethylhexyl) phthalate
Phthalates are used in a large variety of products, such as building materials, medical devices, and personal care products. Most previous studies on the toxicity of phthalates have focused on single phthalates, but it is also important to study the effects of phthalate mixtures because humans are
Phthalates are used in consumer products and are known endocrine-disrupting chemicals. However, limited information is available on the effects of phthalate mixtures on female reproduction. Previously, we developed a phthalate mixture made of 35% diethyl phthalate, 21% di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate,
