Estrogens & androgens shape hippocampal growth & function, linked to spatial cognition. This review explores the evidence for EDC-induced learning & memory disruption: doi.org/10.1159/000531… #Hormones #BrainDevelopment #EDCs #CognitiveAbilities

High oxidative stress linked to inflammation in BPA study. Low doses increased proinflammatory cytokines & damaged liver tissue, showing a non-monotonic dose-response. Perinatal exposure caused liver damage & inflammation in offspring. More information: doi.org/10.3390/ijms24…

🔬 A Xenopus laevis model allowed functional recovery assessment after demyelination and remyelination. A correlation between histological remyelination and clinical performance was found. Learn more: doi.org/10.1093/brain/… #MultipleSclerosis #Remyelination #XenopusLaevis

🧠Advancements in neurotoxicity testing! 3D BrainSphere models based on human induced pluripotent stem cells allow thorough neural characterization. Spike sorting distinguishes various neuronal subtypes. Read more: doi.org/10.3390/cells1… #neuroscience #neurotoxicity

🐀 Exciting new research! A method to quantify 23 steroid hormones from adult and neonatal rat liver & plasma was established using enzymatic treatment, SPE & LC-MS/MS. Read more: doi.org/10.1016/j.tala… #LCMS #EDCs #steroidhormones

🧠 Take a look at your brain! 🔬 These images capture neural progenitor cells' journey to human #neurons. Adherence protocols provide targeted cell cultures for our focused research.

📢Associations between real-life exposure levels of phthalates and altered play behaviors in children were found in a recent publication doi.org/10.1016/j.envi… #EDCs #GenderDevelopment

A state-of-the-art review on the effects of #EndocrineDisruptingChemicals calls for more restrictive use to prevent human exposure during sensitive phases such as brain development @JoelleRuegg onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/dm…

Exciting new research from our partners in Paris, reveals that embryonic exposure to a mixture of EDCs found in human amniotic fluid can significantly alter gene expression of neurodevelopmental genes and decrease tadpole motility. Read the study here: doi.org/10.3390/ijms24…

Recent research from our partners in Paris @BDemeneix @umr7221 highlights that even short-term developmental exposure to low levels of bisphenol F can adversely affect neurogliogenesis and olfactory behavior in adult mice doi.org/10.1016/j.envi…

A new study from our @UmeaUniversity partners presents an in silico approach for a first-tier identification of compounds with potential endocrine activity in Receptor-mediated molecular initiating events doi.org/10.1021/acs.ch…

A new study from our @humantechnopole partners presents an approach for in vivo/ in vitro alignment of neurodevelopmentally relevant processes by benchmarking transcriptomic profiles of brain organoid against fetal corticogenesis. Read more here: doi.org/10.1038/s41398…
