Bisphenol A (BPA) is capable of mimicking endogenous hormones with potential consequences for human health and BPA exposure has been associated with several human diseases including neuropsychiatric disorders.

  1. Occupational exposure to mycotoxins in swine production. Swine production workers are exposed simultaneously to multiple contaminants. Occupational exposure to aflatoxin B1 (AFB 1 ) in Portuguese swine production farms has already been reported. However, besides AFB1, data regarding fungal contamination showed that exposure to other mycotoxins could be expected in this setting. The present study aimed to characterize the occupational exposure to multipl. 2019.

  2. Cytotoxic and genotoxic effects of environmental relevant concentrations of bisphenol A and interactions with doxorubicin. Bisphenol A (BPA) is one of the most widely utilized endocrine disruptors to which humans are exposed, particularity through ingestion. BPA is an aneugenic compound with a putative association to tumorigenesis. Although extensively studied in estrogen-responsive cells, information regarding its effects on cells from the upper gastrointestinal tract exposed to free/active forms of BPA are still sca. 2019.

  3. Potential health risk of endocrine disruptors in construction sector and plastics industry: a new paradigm in occupational health. Endocrine disruptors (EDs) belong to large and diverse groups of agents that may cause multiple biological effects associated with, for example, hormone imbalance and infertility, chronic diseases such as diabetes, genome damage and cancer. The health risks related with the exposure to EDs are typically underestimated, less well characterized, and not regulated to the same extent as, for example,. 2018.

  4. Organic dust exposure in veterinary clinics. Literature about occupational health in small-animal veterinary practices is scarce, but most of it has recognised a number of risks to be considered, including organic dust exposure. The aim of this pilot study was to assess organic dust, bacterial, and fungal contamination in the indoor environment of a typical Portuguese veterinary clinic but also to screen for azoleresistant fungi.

  5. Occupational exposure to bisphenol A (BPA): a reality that still needs to be unveiled. Bisphenol A (BPA), 2,2-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl) propane, is one of the most utilized industrial chemicals worldwide, with the ability to interfere with/or mimic estrogenic hormones with associated biological responses. Environmental human exposure to this endocrine disruptor, mostly through oral intake, is considered a generalized phenomenon, particularly in developed countries. However, in the contex. 2017.

Os desreguladores endócrinos (EDCs) são uma importante preocupação para a saúde humana devido aos seus potenciais efeitos negativos. Por definição, os EDCs têm a capacidade de interferir com a sinalização hormonal através da sua capacidade de ligação aos recetores hormonais e, deste modo, afetar o normal funcionamento do sistema endócrino.

  8. Bisphenol A at the reference level counteracts doxorubicin transcriptional effects on cancer related genes in HT29 cells. Human exposure to Bisphenol A (BPA) results mainly from ingestion of food and beverages. Information regarding BPA effects on colon cancer, one of the major causes of death in developed countries, is still scarce. Likewise, little is known about BPA drug interactions although its potential role in doxorubicin (DOX) chemoresistance has been suggested. This study aims to assess potential interaction. 2015.
