Determining whether environmental estrogens are associated with the risk of prostate cancer may have important implications for our general understanding this disease. The estrogenic insecticide chlordecone was used extensively in French West Indies, contaminating population more than 30 years. We analyzed relationship between exposure to and cancer.We investigated 623 men 671 controls. Exposure according case-control status, using either current plasma concentration or a cumulative index...
Long-term exposure to persistent pollutants with hormonal properties (endocrine-disrupting chemicals; EDCs) may contribute the risk of prostate cancer (PCa). However, epidemiological evidence remains limited.
Many studies have reported perturbations of mollusc reproduction following exposure to low concentrations (ng/L range) endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs). However, the mechanisms action these molecules on molluscs are still poorly understood. Investigation modifications protein expression in organisms exposed using proteomic methods can provide a broader and more comprehensive understanding adverse impacts pollution than conventional biochemical biomarkers (e.g., heat-shock proteins,...
Tributyltin (TBT) and triphenyltin (TPT) are emblematic endocrine disruptors, which have been mostly studied in gonochoric prosobranchs. Although both compounds can simultaneously occur the environment, they mainly tested separately for their effects on snail reproduction. Because large discrepancies experimental conditions occurred these tests, present study aimed to compare relative toxicity of TBT TPT under similar laboratory range 0 ng Sn/L 600 Sn/L. Tests were performed simultaneous...
Endocrine disruptors are known to alter endogenous free and esterified levels of androgenic estrogenic steroid hormones in aquatic mollusks. The origin steroids these animals, however, remains controversial. In the present study, testosterone concentrations were measured hermaphroditic gastropod Lymnaea stagnalis exposed molecules for their (testosterone tributyltin), anti-androgenic (cyproterone-acetate), (chlordecone) properties, by reference mode action vertebrates. parallel, snail...
Background Studies relating long-term exposure to persistent organochlorine pollutants (POPs) with endocrine activities (endocrine disrupting chemicals) on circulating levels of steroid hormones have been limited a small number and reported conflicting results. Objective We examined the relationship between serum concentrations dehydroepiandrosterone, dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate, androstenedione, androstenediol, testosterone, free bioavailable dihydrotestosterone, estrone, estrone...

ISEE-0045 Background and Objective: Chlordecone, an environmentally persistent organochlorine insecticide used intensively in banana culture the French West Indies until 1993, has permanently polluted soils contaminated foodstuffs. Consumption of food is main source exposure nowadays. Exposure indicators are required to assess its potential health effects today. We sought validate indicator based on intake as alternative blood measurements. Methods: a frequency questionnaire completed by...
