Intergenerational and transgenerational effects of environmental factors and a role for the epigenome
2020, Environmental Epigenetics in Toxicology and Public HealthRole of aneuploidy in the carcinogenic process: Part 3 of the report of the 2017 IWGT workgroup on assessing the risk of aneugens for carcinogenesis and hereditary diseases
2019, Mutation Research - Genetic Toxicology and Environmental MutagenesisCitation Excerpt :DES Induces aneuploidy in vitro and in vivo, as well as in juveniles in utero [105,160]. DES also induces depurinating DNA adducts [161], chromosome aberrations and SCEs [162]. Following oral DES exposure of pregnant mothers, clear cell adenocarcinomas of the reproductive tract are induced in their daughters at puberty [163].
Evaluation of an alternative in vitro test battery for detecting reproductive toxicants
2013, Reproductive ToxicologyCitation Excerpt :DES is a highly potent estrogen that has been used in the 20th century as a drug to reduce nausea and abortion in pregnancy, but appeared to be therapeutically ineffective. It caused transplacental carcinogenesis of the cervix epithelium in daughters [82–85]. Effects on male fertility were observed at postnatal s.c. doses as low as 0.4 μg/kg [86], corresponding to concentrations around 10−10 M in vitro.
The role of environmental estrogens and autoimmunity
2012, Autoimmunity ReviewsCitation Excerpt :Concerns about environmental exposure to endocrine disruptors have first been raised in the 70s, when emerged that in utero exposure to diethylstilbestrol (DES), a synthetic estrogen, was associated with somatic effects in adulthood, including female genital abnormalities, vaginal cancer, and male urogenital disorders. DES had been largely used from 1948 to 1971 in the management of conditions as threatened abortions, pre-eclampsia, prior premature labor, prostatic and breast cancer, pregnancy complications in diabetic women [9–11]. It is estimated that 2 to 4.8 million human offspring were exposed to DES [12].
