Three decades (1983-2010) of contaminant trends in East Greenland polar bears (Ursus maritimus). Part 1: legacy organochlorine contaminants.
Environ. Int. 59 , 485-93, (2013) Legacy organochlorine contaminants were determined in adipose tissues from 294 polar bears (Ursus maritimus) sampled in East Greenland in 23 of the 28years between 1983 and 2010. Of 19 major legacy contaminants and congeners (ΣPCB, 4 PCB congeners (CB153, 180... |

A predictive ligand-based Bayesian model for human drug-induced liver injury.
Drug Metab. Dispos. 38 , 2302-8, (2010) Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is one of the most important reasons for drug development failure at both preapproval and postapproval stages. There has been increased interest in developing predictive in vivo, in vitro, and in silico models to identify comp... |

A novel toxicogenomics-based approach to categorize (non-)genotoxic carcinogens.
Arch. Toxicol. 89 , 2413-27, (2015) Alternative methods to detect non-genotoxic carcinogens are urgently needed, as this class of carcinogens goes undetected in the current testing strategy for carcinogenicity under REACH. A complicating factor is that non-genotoxic carcinogens act through seve... |

Associations of accumulated exposure to persistent organic pollutants with serum lipids and obesity in an adult cohort from Southern Spain.
Environ. Pollut. 195 , 9-15, (2014) The aim of this research was to study the association of the accumulated human exposure to persistent organic pollutants with serum lipid levels and obesity, in a cohort of 298 adults. In the multivariable analyses, HCB concentrations evidenced a significant ... |

Prepubertal organochlorine pesticide concentrations and age of pubertal onset among Russian boys.
Environ. Int. 73 , 135-42, (2014) In animal studies, organochlorine pesticide (OCP) exposure alters pubertal development; however, epidemiological data are limited and inconsistent.To evaluate the associations of serum OCP concentrations [hexachlorobenzene (HCB), β-hexachlorocyclohexane (β-HC... |

Associations between plasma persistent organic pollutant levels and blood pressure in Inuit adults from Nunavik.
Environ. Int. 59 , 282-9, (2013) Recent evidence suggests that exposure to persistent organic pollutants (POPs) increases the risk of hypertension in environmentally exposed populations. High POP levels have been detected in Arctic populations and the exposure is related to high consumption ... |

Fish intake and breastfeeding time are associated with serum concentrations of organochlorines in a Swedish population.
Environ. Int. 51 , 88-96, (2013) Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) exert harmful effects on cognitive, endocrine and immune functions and bioaccumulate in the environment and human tissues. The aim of this study was to investigate the body burden of several POPs in the adult population (n... |

Temporal trends of selected POPs and the potential influence of climate variability in a Greenland ringed seal population.
Environ. Sci. Process. Impacts 15(9) , 1706-16, (2013) Temporal trends of selected POPs (PCB-52 and 153, p,p'-DDE, HCB, α- and β-HCH) in blubber of ringed seals (Pusa hispida) collected from the early 1990s to 2010 from central West Greenland were studied. In this period, the climate of Greenland warmed and the i... |

Levels of organochlorine pesticides residues in human adipose tissue, data from Tabasco, Mexico.
Bull. Environ. Contam. Toxicol. 89(5) , 1062-7, (2012) The objective of this study was to determine the levels of organochlorine pesticides HCB, α-β-γ-HCH, p,p'-DDE, o,p'-DDT and p,p'-DDT in 150 adipose tissue of inhabitants of Tabasco, Mexico. The following pesticides were detected: p,p'-DDE in 100% of samples a... |

Organochlorine pesticide level differences among female inhabitants from Veracruz, Puebla and Tabasco, Mexico.
Bull. Environ. Contam. Toxicol. 93(2) , 233-7, (2014) Organochlorine pesticides have been used in Mexico in malaria control programs and against ectoparasites. The objective of this study was to compare the levels of organochlorine pesticides: HCB, α-β-γ-HCH, pp'-DDE, op'-DDT and pp'-DDT in adipose tissue of fem... |
