10 paź 2023 · As a notorious compound in the family of dioxins, 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) exhibits long-term toxic effects on diverse organs, which induces continuous metabolic disorders. This review discussed the mechanisms of TCDD-associated metabolic syndrome.
1 sty 2023 · As a notorious compound in the family of dioxins, 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) exhibits long-term toxic effects on diverse organs, which induces continuous metabolic disorders. This review discussed the mechanisms of TCDD-associated metabolic syndrome.
Toxic equivalency factor (TEF) expresses the toxicity of dioxins, furans and PCBs in terms of the most toxic form of dioxin, 2,3,7,8-TCDD. [1] The toxicity of the individual congeners may vary by orders of magnitude.
25 lut 2018 · 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) is an environmental contaminant and its toxicity is mediated by the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR). Mechanisms of TCDD cardiovascular toxicity consist of oxidative stress, growth factor modulation, and ionic current alteration.
19 lip 2017 · 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo- p -dioxin (TCDD) is a persistent environmental contaminant which elicits hepatotoxicity through activation of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR). Male C57BL/6...
This paper provides a critical view of the advances made towards understanding the mechanism of TCDD action. Major topics discussed include the Ah-receptor hypothesis, TCDD as a thyroid hormone agonist, TCDD and vitamin A deficiency, TCDD's effect on receptor regulation, and its effect on intermediary metabolism including related hormonal ...
The “Toxic Equivalent” (TEQ) scheme weighs the toxicity of the less toxic compounds as fractions of the toxicity of the most toxic TCDD. Each compound is attributed a specific “Toxic Equivalency Factor” (TEF) .
