DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2018.07.009
Abstract: ABSTRACT Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) are suspected to be associated with breast cancer risk because of their estrogenic potencies. Epidemiological studies of PBDEs and breast cancer are scarce. Our study aimed to estimate the association… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2021.126697
Abstract: Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) are a category of brominated flame retardants, which were widely used in industrial products since the 1970 s. Our previous studies indicated quinone-type metabolites of PBDEs (PBDE-Qs) cause neurotoxicity, however, their inherent… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jpurol.2019.05.023
Abstract: BACKGROUND Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) are widely used flame retardants, and their endocrine-disrupting properties have focused growing attention regarding their teratogenic potential. We have recently documented that mothers of children born with hypospadias had been… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jpi.12871
Abstract: The neurotoxicity of 2,2',4,4'-tetrabromodiphenyl ether (PBDE-47) is closely linked to mitochondrial abnormalities while mitophagy is vital for mitochondrial homeostasis. However, whether PBDE-47 disrupts mitophagy contributing to impaired neurodevelopment remain elusive. Here, this study showed that… read more here.
