Auditory deficits in rats exposed to an environmental PCB mixture during developmentBrian E Powers
Neuroscience Program, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Urbana, Illinois, 61802, USA
Toxicol Sci 89:415-22. 2006..Developmental exposure to PCBs may also result in subtle auditory impairments in humans, and if so, this may contribute to some of the cognitive deficits that have been observed in epidemiological studies...
Contaminant profiles in Southeast Asian immigrants consuming fish from polluted waters in northeastern WisconsinSusan L Schantz
Department of Veterinary Biosciences, College of Veterinary Medicine, University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign, 2001 South Lincoln Avenue, Urbana, IL 61802, USA
Environ Res 110:33-9. 2010..The pattern of exposure is somewhat different than patterns in other fish-eating populations, possibly due to use of Aroclor 1242 by the paper industry in this region...
Impact of estrogen receptor alpha and beta agonists on delayed alternation in middle-aged ratsSteven L Neese
Neuroscience Program, University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign, USA
Horm Behav 58:878-90. 2010..These data confirm our earlier findings that chronic 17β-estradiol treatment has an impairing effect on the DSA task, and suggest that ERβ activation may underlie the deficit...
Impact of dietary genistein and aging on executive function in ratsSteven L Neese
Department of Veterinary Sciences, University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign, 2001 S Lincoln Avenue, Urbana, IL 61802, USA
Neurotoxicol Teratol 32:200-11. 2010....
Chronic estradiol replacement impairs performance on an operant delayed spatial alternation task in young, middle-aged, and old ratsVictor C Wang
Neuroscience Program and Department of Veterinary Sciences, University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign, USA
Horm Behav 56:382-90. 2009....
Effects of PCB exposure on neuropsychological function in childrenSusan L Schantz
Department of Veterinary Biosciences, College of Veterinary Medicine, University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign, Urbana, Illinois 61802, USA
Environ Health Perspect 111:357-576. 2003..More complete information on the health effects of various congeners or congener classes would allow more informed scientific and risk assessment decisions...
Effects of chronic estradiol treatment on delayed spatial alternation and differential reinforcement of low rates of respondingVictor C Wang
Neuroscience Program, University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign, Urbana, IL, USA
Behav Neurosci 122:794-804. 2008..These data suggest that chronic estrogen exposure may impair rats' abilities on measures of executive function including working memory and response inhibition...
Delayed spatial alternation impairments in adult rats following dietary n-6 deficiency during developmentCindy S Roegge
Neuroscience Program, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Urbana, IL 61802, United States
Neurotoxicol Teratol 27:485-95. 2005..Thus, the observed delayed spatial alternation impairments in rats fed PO fish and fish oil are hypothesized to have resulted from the altered n-6/n-3 FA ratios...
Developmental exposure to PCBs, MeHg, or both: long-term effects on auditory functionBrian E Powers
Neuroscience Program, University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign, Urbana, Illinois 61802, USA
Environ Health Perspect 117:1101-7. 2009..However, little is known about the effects of combined exposure to PCBs and MeHg on auditory function...
Motor impairment in rats exposed to PCBs and methylmercury during early developmentCindy S Roegge
Neuroscience Program, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Urbana, Illinois 61801, USA
Toxicol Sci 77:315-24. 2004..Our results demonstrate that the possibility of additive neurotoxic effects of PCBs and MeHg needs to be seriously considered...
Acute and chronic effects of oral genistein administration in neonatal miceMelissa A Cimafranca
Department of Veterinary Biosciences, Division of Nutritional Sciences, University of Illinois, 2001 S Lincoln Ave, Urbana, IL 61802, USA
Biol Reprod 83:114-21. 2010..The immediate and long-term effects in this neonatal animal model raise concerns that high serum concentrations of genistein are estrogenic and could potentially impact the development of human infants fed soy formula...
Developmental exposure to PCBs and/or MeHg: effects on a differential reinforcement of low rates (DRL) operant task before and after amphetamine drug challengeHelen J K Sable
Department of Veterinary Biosciences, University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign, Urbana, IL 61802, USA
Neurotoxicol Teratol 31:149-58. 2009....
Alterations in DRH and DRL performance in rats developmentally exposed to an environmental PCB mixtureHelen J K Sable
Department of Veterinary Biosciences, University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign, Urbana, IL 61802 USA
Neurotoxicol Teratol 28:548-56. 2006..Overall, exposure to this PCB mixture resulted in increased responding which was suggestive of a deficit in inhibitory control...
Dietary genistein results in larger MNU-induced, estrogen-dependent mammary tumors following ovariectomy of Sprague-Dawley ratsClinton D Allred
Department of Food Science and Human Nutrition, University of Illinois, Urbana, IL 61801, USA
Carcinogenesis 25:211-8. 2004..The data suggest that in an endogenous estrogen environment similar to that of a postmenopausal woman, dietary genistein can stimulate the growth of a mammary carcinogen MNU-induced estrogen-dependent mammary tumors...
