The effects of phthalate exposure on metabolic parameters in polycystic ovary syndrome

Andrijana Milankov et al.

Summary: This study investigated the association between phthalate exposure and the development of metabolic syndrome in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). The results showed that phthalate concentrations were correlated with obesity, glucose and lipid impairment, and disrupted testosterone levels.

Urinary biomarkers of exposure to drinking water disinfection byproducts and ovarian reserve: A cross-sectional study in China

Yan-Ling Deng et al.

Summary: Experimental studies have shown that exposure to disinfection byproducts (DBPs) in drinking water may lead to decreased ovarian reserve, particularly in terms of reduced antral follicle count and anti-Mullerian hormone levels. The findings suggest that urinary levels of DCAA and TCAA are negatively associated with indicators of ovarian reserve.

Prenatal Phthalate Exposure and Child Weight and Adiposity from in Utero to 6 Years of Age

Kelly K. Ferguson et al.

Summary: This study found that prenatal exposure to phthalates may be associated with lower birth weight but not with weight in childhood. However, the results regarding adiposity showed that prenatal exposure to phthalates may lead to lower adiposity at birth and higher adiposity at 3-4 years of age.

Polycystic ovary syndrome

Anju E. Joham et al.

Summary: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) affects 5-18% of women and is a reproductive, metabolic, and psychological condition. Its complex cause includes genetic and epigenetic susceptibility, hypothalamic and ovarian dysfunction, excess androgen exposure, insulin resistance, and adiposity-related mechanisms. The diagnostic criteria generate four phenotypes and treatment involves a combination of lifestyle alterations and medical management.

Phthalate metabolites: Characterization, toxicities, global distribution, and exposure assessment

Ying-Jie Zhang et al.

Summary: Phthalates, commonly used as plasticizers, have metabolites that may impact human health differently across regions, with Asia, America, and Europe showing variations in exposure levels. Urine is the preferred matrix for assessing phthalate exposure, and more accurate molar fractions of metabolites related to ingested compounds should be collected for different populations in epidemiological or pharmacokinetic studies.

Di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate exposure exacerbates metabolic disorders in diet-induced obese mice

Jhih-Wei Hsu et al.

Summary: This study found that DEHP exposure exacerbated metabolic disorders in obese mice, but not in lean mice. The synergistic effects of obesity and DEHP regulated carbohydrate uptake, lipolysis, and abnormal adipose tissue, while obesity and DEHP differentially modulated transcriptomic changes in hepatic tissue.Obesity and DEHP exposure together caused early onset of metabolic disorders in obese mice through a potential mechanism involving Pparg, Lipe, Cd44, and Irs1.

Ovulation is Inhibited by an Environmentally Relevant Phthalate Mixture in Mouse Antral Follicles In Vitro

Katie L. Land et al.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of phthalates on ovulation and found that phthalates can directly inhibit ovulation by decreasing prostaglandin levels, altering progesterone/PGR action, and affecting extracellular matrix remodeling.

Remediation strategies for mitigation of phthalate pollution: Challenges and future perspectives

Mihir Tanay Das et al.

Summary: Phthalates, used as plasticizers, pose potential risks to human health and the environment, leading to a growing concern in recent years. Researchers aim to understand the pollution status, sources, health impacts of phthalates, as well as develop technologies to mitigate the risks associated with phthalate contamination.

Association between phthalate exposure and insulin resistance: a systematic review and meta-analysis update

Hui Gao et al.

Summary: A systematic review and meta-analysis investigated the effects of phthalate exposure on insulin resistance, finding a positive relationship between exposure to specific phthalate metabolites and increased insulin resistance. Sensitivity analyses indicated that exposure to certain phthalates was associated with an increased risk of HOMA-IR, while age, sex, and study site had limited impact on heterogeneity.
