In our previous studies, it was found that graphene oxide (GO) reduced the endocrine disruption of bisphenol A (BPA) in zebrafish embryo and larvae, but through different mechanisms. In this study, adult male zebrafish were selected to further unders...

This paper aims to identify structural motifs within a molecule that contribute the most toward a chemical being an endocrine disruptor. We have developed a deep neural network-based toolkit toward this aim. The trained model can virtually assess a s...

As defined by the World Health Organization, an endocrine disruptor is an exogenous substance or mixture that alters function(s) of the endocrine system and consequently causes adverse health effects in an intact organism, its progeny, or (sub)popula...
Human well-being can be affected by exposure to several chemicals in the environment. One such group is endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) that can perturb the hormonal homeostasis leading to adverse health effects. In this work, we have developed...
Over 80,000 endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are considered emerging contaminants (ECs), which are of great concern due to their effects on human health. Quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) models are a promising alternative to i...

The nuclear androgen receptor (AR) is one of the most relevant biological targets of Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals (EDCs), which produce adverse effects by interfering with hormonal regulation and endocrine system functioning. This paper describes n...

We introduce here ML4Tox, a framework offering Deep Learning and Support Vector Machine models to predict agonist, antagonist, and binding activities of chemical compounds, in this case for the estrogen receptor ligand-binding domain. The ML4Tox mode...
Endocrine-disrupting chemicals are a group of emerging contaminants that alters the function of the endocrine system, causing possible adverse health effects. In this study, a dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction method coupled with liquid chroma...
BACKGROUND: Parabens are suspected to impair fetal growth because of their endocrine disrupting effects. Epidemiological studies regarding the effects of prenatal exposure to parabens on birth outcomes are limited.
Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs), which can threaten ecological safety and be harmful to human beings, have been cause for wide concern. There is a high demand for efficient methodologies for evaluating potential EDCs in the environment. Herein ...
