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…
Prostate cancer is related to the endocrine system and its progression involves changes in estrogen and androgen signaling pathways. Therefore the investigation of drugs that interfere in these pathways creates perspective for discovery of novel therapeutic targets.In this scenario, androgen deprivation has been used as the main treatment for tumor reduction.The antiandrogen abiraterone a…

The intrauterine microenvironment has been the target of significant changes due to interference from environmental and/or socio-economic factors, which can have late consequences. The problem of plastic is one of the biggest public health challenges on the planet. Research has shown that global plastic production amounted to 400 million tons in 2015, and according to estimates, 12 billio…
Plastic and its additives are increasingly becoming a problem for the environment and public health. In this context, plastics, once discarded, undergo degradation into smaller particles, called micro/nanoplastics, which have been gaining prominence due to the increase in evidence of these particles in the environment and their harmful properties to human health. These residues can also b…
The intrauterine microenvironment has been subject to important changes due to the interference of environmental and/or socioeconomic factors, which can generate late consequences. 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 according to estimates, 12 billion tons of p…

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 adrenal glands are highly active and responsible for producing hormones that maintain homeostasis, control blood pressure and stress responses, and thus influence metabolism and growth. When these glands are early exposed to stressful factors, such as environmental toxins, they can trigger important responses that result in alterations in their development and functionality. Currently…

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…
