Brazil is main consumer of pesticides in the world. Organophosphate pesticides are one of the most used due to their efficiency and relatively low toxicity, one of these pesticides is Dichlorvos (DDVP). The DDVP can act as endocrine disrupters, contributing to the development of prostatic lesion. In the last years, prostate cancer, has been the incident cancer in United State and in Brazi…
Organophosphate pesticides are very effective , widely used , and pose great risk to the environment and health of many organisms , including humans. Dichlorvos (DDVP) is an organophosphate pesticides and these have mutagenic and carcinogenic potential for humans. Many pesticides, such as DDVP, act as endocrine disruptors, may alter endocrine homeostasis. These compounds act via the andro…
Organophosphate pesticides are utilized in agriculture for insect control; however, they are toxic for many organisms. Human beings, for example, can function as endocrine disruptors, mutagenic agents, and carcinogens. Among these compounds is the dichlorvos (DDVP), a pesticide very utilized in pest control on account of its efficiency and low cost, nonetheless, is potentially capable of …
The prostate is a hormone-dependent organ that can be disturbed by environmental pollutants that mimetize the hormonal action, known as endocrine disruptors. Among these compounds is the dichlorvos (DDVP), a pesticide widely used in pest control and potentially capable of promoting tissue morphological changes, consequently developing inflammatory processes and cancer precursor lesions, t…
Prostate cancer affects much of the world's male human population. Different factors may lead to the occurrence of this neoplasm through prostatic lesions that change prostate characteristics and functions, such as physical and urinary trauma, infectious agents, eating habits, genetic mutations and hormonal variations. Organophosphate pesticides are widely used in agriculture because of t…
