Tobacco carcinogens, their biomarkers and tobacco-induced cancer.
TL;DR: What are the mechanisms by which this deadly combination of nicotine and carcinogens leads to 30% of cancer-related deaths in developed countries, and how can carcinogen biomarkers help to reveal these mechanisms?
Journal ArticleDOI
A variety of environmentally persistent chemicals, including some phthalate plasticizers, are weakly estrogenic.
TL;DR: The current finding that some phthalate compounds and some food additives are weakly estrogenic in vitro, needs to be supported by further studies on their effects in vivo before any conclusions can be made regarding their possible role in the development of these conditions.
