  • Title: The impact of pesticides on oxidative stress level in human organism and their activity as an endocrine disruptor.
    Author: Jabłońska-Trypuć A, Wołejko E, Wydro U, Butarewicz A.
    Journal: J Environ Sci Health B; 2017 Jul 03; 52(7):483-494. PubMed ID: 28541098.
    Abstract:
    Pesticides cause serious environmental and health problems both to humans and animals. The aim of this review is to discuss selected herbicides and fungicides regarding their mode of action and their influence on basic oxidative stress parameters and endocrine disruption properties tested in selected cell cultures in vitro. Because of numerous difficulties which animal studies are subject to, cell cultures are an excellent experimental model reflecting human exposure to different pesticides through all relevant routes. This experimental model can be used to monitor aggregate and cumulative pesticide exposures.
