BACKGROUND
Phthalates are plasticizers used in many common commercial products. They are ubiquitous environmental contaminants and epidemiological studies suggest that phthalate exposure is associated with development or worsening of airway diseases. Dibutyl phthalate (DBP) is a type of phthalate,
Phthalates are widely used chemicals with ubiquitous exposure. Dibutyl-phthalate (DBP), a male reproductive toxicant in animals, is understudied in humans. Some mesalamine medications used to treat inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) have DBP in their coating, whereas other mesalamine formulations do
Phthalates, such as dibutyl phthalate (DBP), are endocrine disruptors used in some medication coatings e.g., mesalamine to treat inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
Taking advantage of different mesalamine formulations with/without DBP, we assessed whether DBP from mesalamine (>1000x background)
Chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis (CLT) is a common autoimmune disorder. The possible pathogenic role and mechanism of dibutyl phthalate (DBP) in CLT is still controversial. Experiments were conducted after 35-days of oral exposure to the three concentrations of DBP or saline, and three immunizations
BACKGROUND
Phthalates, a family of compounds used in a variety of consumer products, are reproductive and developmental toxicants in experimental animals. One of these phthalates, dibutyl phthalate (DBP), is an inactive ingredient in the coating of Asacol.
OBJECTIVE
To determine if men with
Dibutyl phthalate (DBP) is a ubiquitous environmental contaminant that at certain levels can be harmful to human health. Although DBP has been widely linked to immunotoxicity, any association between DBP exposure and splenic injury remains unknown. The purpose of this study was to investigate
BACKGROUND
Dibutyl phthalate (DBP) is an endocrine disruptor and used in some medication coatings, such as mesalamine for treatment inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
OBJECTIVE
To determine whether high-DBP from some mesalamine medications alters thyroid function.
METHODS
Seventy men with IBD,
Dibutyl phthalate (DBP) is one of the most ubiquitous phthalate esters found in everyday products, and is receiving increased attention as an immunologic adjuvant. However, information regarding DBP-aggravated allergic asthma is still limited. This study used a mouse model sensitized with ovalbumin
Pyrus bretschneideri Rehd. belongs to the genus Pyrus, a member of Rosaceae family. It is a routine edible fruit, and also used as a folk medicine to treat cough, eliminate constipation, and relieve alcoholism. In order to clarify the active compounds of P. bretschneideri, the phytochemical study
Phthalate exposure has been associated with a wide range of adverse health outcomes in limited epidemiologic studies, and inflammation and oxidative stress have been hypothesized as potential mechanisms involved. In the present study we investigated associations between urinary concentrations of
In Belgium, around 8.5% of the children have asthmatic symptoms. Increased asthma risk in children has been reported in relation to exposure to phthalate plasticizers but the underlying mechanisms are largely unknown.
The aim of this study was to identify if oxidative stress, assessed by excision of
Dear Editor, Tattooing is a global and ancient practice that has endured until the present day. It was originally used to indicate religious beliefs, tribal affiliation, loyalty to a leader, or had a therapeutic function. Adverse reactions from tattooing are common, and cutaneous reactions to red
Quinolinic acid (QA), a neuroactive metabolite of the Kynurenine Pathway (KP), is an excitotoxin that is implicated in the pathogenesis of many neurological disorders. KP is the main tryptophan degradation pathway. Phthalates can structurally mimic tryptophan metabolites and diets Although poly(l-lactide) (PLLA) based porous scaffolds have been widely fabricated through 3D printing, their poor mechanical properties and osteogenic activity still do not meet the needs of bone tissue repair. Herein, chitin whiskers (CHWs), having outstanding mechanical properties, excellent cell
The wide application of plastics led to the wide exposure of plasticizers to the environment. As a new environmental pollutant, plasticizers' toxicity researches were far from enough in fish. To further explore these mechanisms, we used two common plasticizers (Diethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP) and
