Studies involving endocrine effects in humans and experimental animals resulting from the exposure to dioxin-like (non-ortho-substituted PCBs, PCDDs/PCDFs) and nondioxin-like (PCBs, OC pesticides) compounds (DLCs and NDLCs) were presented. A variety of reproductive and hormonal parameters, including androgen status, sexual differentiation, and thyroid functionality, were discussed. As in utero and lactational exposure of the human fetus/neonate to these environmental contaminants is inevitable, continued research to identify sensitive biomarkers of effect and susceptibility, as well as to define dose-response relationships, is required.
介绍了有关人类和实验动物接触二噁英类(非邻位取代多氯联苯、多氯二苯并二噁英/多氯二苯并呋喃)和非二噁英类(多氯联苯、有机氯农药)化合物(二噁英类化合物和非二噁英类化合物)所产生内分泌影响的研究。讨论了包括雄激素状态、性分化和甲状腺功能在内的各种生殖和激素参数。由于人类胎儿/新生儿在子宫内和哺乳期不可避免地会接触这些环境污染物,因此需要持续开展研究,以确定效应和易感性的敏感生物标志物,并确定剂量反应关系。
