Environmental toxicants, such as cadmium and bisphenol A (BPA) are endocrine disruptors.
In utero, perinatal, or neonatal exposure of BPA to rats affect the male reproductive function …

Contaminants such as cadmium, bisphenol A and lead which pollute our environment affect
male reproductive function. There is evidence that toxicant exposure adversely affects …

Male infertility caused by exposure to environmental toxicants such as cadmium, mercury,
bisphenol A (BPA) and dioxin is a global problem, particularly in industrialized countries …

Testicular junctions are pivotal to male fertility and regulated by constituent proteins.
Increasing evidence suggests that environmental chemicals, including bisphenol A (BPA) …

Testes are sensitive to toxicants, such as cadmium and phthalates, which disrupt a local
functional axis in the seminiferous epithelium known as the 'apical ectoplasmic …

Cadmium (Cd) is an environmental toxicant and an endocrine disruptor in humans and
rodents. Several organs (eg, kidney, liver) are affected by Cd and recent studies have …

Environmental toxicants, such as cadmium, found in foods, water, and consumer products
are known to induce male reproductive dysfunction. However, the underlying molecular …

Recent studies have shown that male reproductive function is modulated via the mitogen-
activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade. The MAPK cascade is involved in numerous male …

BACKGROUND: Sertoli cell junctional proteins (SCJP)(viz. adhesion, gap and tight
junctions) are important for spermatogenesis and perturbations in expression of these …

Sertoli cells isolated from rodents or humans and cultured in vitro are known to establish a
functional tight junction (TJ)-permeability barrier that mimics the blood–testis barrier (BTB) in …
