DOI: 10.1002/ajim.22657

Abstract: BACKGROUND We evaluated cancer incidence in a cohort of polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) exposed workers. METHODS Incident cancers, identified using state registries, were compared to those in a national population using standardized incidence ratios. Trends in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.cellsig.2018.10.004

Abstract: BACKGROUND Polychlorinated biphenyl-mediated steatohepatitis has been shown to be due in part to inhibition of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signalling. EGFR signalling regulates many facets of hepatocyte function, but it is unclear which other… read more here.

DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.4100160

Abstract: Applications of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in buildings and their persistence in indoor environments have led to cases of current and highly elevated exposure in humans, despite the global cease of production decades ago. Personal exposure… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijerph16060950

Abstract: Polychlorinated biphenyls’ (PCB) exposure has been reported to be associated with depressive symptoms, which is correlated to lower dopamine- (DA) and thyroxine-concentrations (T4). T4 is necessary for DA-synthesis and it binds to transthyretin (TTR) being… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijms262210829

Abstract: Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are persistent organic pollutants associated with neurodevelopmental toxicity, yet the effects of exposure during adolescence and adulthood remain underexplored. This scoping review evaluates the neurotoxic outcomes of post-weaning PCB exposure in rodent… read more here.
