General description

Dibutyl phthalate (DBP) is most commonly used as a plasticizer in a variety of household products. It has the ability to leach and evaporate into the environment while using or disposing of these products. Therefore, studies are being conducted to assess its toxic and apoptotic effects. Studies have also indicated that exposure to high doses of DBP may interfere with progesterone and estradiol production.

Dibutyl phthalate (DBP)-induced apoptosis and neurotoxicity are mediated via the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) but not by estrogen receptor alpha (ER?), estrogen receptor beta (ER?), or peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR?) in mouse cortical neurons.

Aquatic toxicology (Amsterdam, Netherlands), 149, 103-115 (2014-03-01)
Phthalic acid esters (PAEs) are a class of synthetic industrial chemicals commonly found in the aquatic environment worldwide. PAEs have been recognised as anti-androgens in male mammals but little is known about their endocrine disrupting effects in fish. This study
