Summary

This review examines the cellular mechanisms through which endocrine-disrupting compounds interfere with hormonal signalling, contextualising the problem within the massive expansion of industrial chemical production since industrialisation and the incorporation of many synthetic chemicals into global commerce.

Body Systems

Abstract With industrialization, the production of chemicals and their introduction into the environment have increased massively. These new agents included many chemical classes and comprise an integral part of the world economy and commerce [1]. Nevertheless, several of the chemicals used today are called endocrine-disrupting compounds (EDCs).
