the environment (for review , see [ 1 ]). Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are produced during incomplete combustion of fossil fuels, tobacco, wood , garbage, and other organic substances and by natural processes ...
the combustion of sea salt laden wood , can result in high levels of PCDD/Fs and dioxin in the fly ash, but not in bottom ash (Luthe and Prahacs, 1993). Fly ash from European boilers generally has higher levels ...
receptor. This study demonstrates that the serum levels of TCDD and specific dioxin -like PHAH congeners were increased in TCDD-treated animals with endometriosis 13 years after the TCDD exposure. Nine TCDD ...
to provide compelling evidence for or against an association of environmental contaminants and endometriosis. Herein we review the available literature that provides evidence that dioxin and dioxin -like ...
Abstract In the last 3 years several farms raising cattle, river buffalo and sheep have been unable to sell dairy milk due to the presence of high levels of dioxins . Furthermore, several cases ...
). Lastly, exposure to environmental factors such as radiation ( Wood et al., 1983; Yochmowitz et al., 1985), polychlorinated biphenyls ( reviewed by Gerhard and Runnebaum, 1992), and TCDD (Rier et al., 1993 ...
to polychlorinated dibenzo-p- dioxins /dibenzo furans (PCDD/Fs), persistent, and bioaccumulative) (Van den Berg et al., 1998, 2006). Further, studies reviewed herein will demonstrate that the role of the AHR in PAH ...
function by TCDD as well as the implications on human diseases associated in epidemiological studies with exposure to TCDD and dioxin -like compounds is the primary focus of this review . 2,3,7,8 ...
Abstract Temporal analyses were performed on hepatic tissue from immature female C57BL/6 mice in order to compare the gene expression profiles for 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p- dioxin (TCDD ...
Abstract Planar halogenated aromatic hydrocarbons (pHAHs), such as 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p- dioxin ( dioxin ), show strong binding affinity for the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) and are potent ...
