The plastic problem is one of the biggest public health challenges on the planet. Research has shown that global plastic production was 400 million tons in 2015, and an estimated 12 billion tons of plastic waste is expected to be produced by 2050. When plastics enter the environment, they degrade to form microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) that enter the body through breathing, ing…
The incidence of chronic diseases such as diabetes and obesity, as well as genetic diseases such as cancer, has increased in recent decades due to several socio-economic and environmental factors. Thus, interest in environmental factors that interfere without intra-uterine development and rnorphofunctional, genetic and epigenetic promovamzy, including how they can be transmitted to offspr…
The incidence of chronic diseases such as diabetes and obesity, as well as genetic diseases such as cancer, has increased in recent decades due to several socioeconomic and environmental factors that seem to interfere in the development, incidence and prognosis of these diseases. With regard to cancer, the temporal factor distances in up to 50-60 years the stages of initiation and tumor p…

The increasing production and pollution of plastics increases human exposure to environmental contaminants, micro/nanoplastics (MNPs) and their additives. Due to their size, MNPs can cross barriers such as the placenta and have been found in different human and murine organs. These substances adsorb other pollutants, such as phthalates, which are plasticizers and act as endocrine disrupto…

The increasing production and use of plastics has raised concerns due to the associated environmental and health impacts. In the environment, plastics are degraded into micro- and nanoplastics (MNPS), particles small enough to penetrate the human body through breathing, ingestion of water, contaminated food and even through the skin. Furthermore, phthalates, chemical agents used to manufa…

One of the biggest current problems linked to human activity and the environment is exposure to environmental contaminants such as plastics and their additives. In this context, among the most studied and ubiquitous substances used in the manufacture of plastics and easily leached into the environment are phthalates. Additionally, micro/nanoplastics (MNP) have been gaining attention in sc…
The prostate gland is extremely important for the male reproductive system and is increasingly gaining prominence due to the high incidence of Prostate Cancer (PCa). Phthalates are a group of chemical compounds used as plasticizers to confer greater malleability and flexibility and are considered Endocrine Disruptors (ED) due to their antiandrogenic action. Previous work from our research…

The widespread production and pollution of plastics has been gaining attention due to the effects of plastics polution on the environment and human health. Once in the environment, plastic polymers degrade into small particles called micro or nanoplastics, which can reach humans and cause health consequences. Furthermore, plastic additives are released into the environment and attach to t…
Phthalates represent a class of molecules detected in different concentrations in breast milk, in the urine of pregnant women, and in the human and rodent placenta. Previous studies have shown that perinatal exposure to isolated phthalates increased susceptibility to prostatic carcinogenesis. Thus, the study seeks to investigate the OMICS profile on ventral prostate (VP) of senescent rats…

Male fertility and spermatogenesis process are directly related to the ability of Sertoli cells to produce factors associated with germ cells development. Only the Sertoli cells have receptors for FSH and testosterone, and therefore these cells are the major spermatogenesis regulators. Studies suggest that 60-70% male infertility cases are considered idiophatic, since the molecular mechan…
