The organochlorine insecticide methoxychlor (mxc) is an established reproductive toxicant that affects other systems including the central nervous system (CNS), possibly by mechanisms involving oxidative stress. This study tested the hypothesis that mxc inhibits brain mitochondrial respiration, resulting in increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Oxygen electrode measurements of ...
Because pesticides may operate through different mechanisms, the authors studied the risk of prostate cancer associated with specific pesticides in the Agricultural Health Study (1993-2007). With 1,962 incident cases, including 919 aggressive prostate cancers among 54,412 applicators, this is the largest study to date. Rate ratios and 95% confidence intervals were calculated by using Poisson re...
The oncogene erbB-2 codes for a receptor tyrosine kinase that functions as a key mitotic signal in a variety of cell types. Amplification or overexpression of erbB-2 occurs in many forms of cancer, such as of the breast, colon, and prostate, and is an indicator of poor prognosis in those diseases. In the human prostate cancer cell lines LNCaP and PC-3, erbB-2 kinase was activated by pesticides ...
Greenhouse whitefly, Trialeurodes vaporariorum West., is one of the most important pests of field crops and ornamental plants in greenhouses which usually controlled by chemical insecticide and/or by biologic control factors. In this study the effect of singular and integrated use of Confidor and predator, Chrysoperla carnea (Steph.) against different nymphal instars of the pest on tomato plant...
Chlordecone (Kepone®) is a synthetic organochlorine insecticide (C10Cl10O) used worldwide mostly during the 1970 and 1980s. Its intensive application in the French West Indies to control the banana black weevil Cosmopolites sordidus led to a massive environmental pollution. Persistence of chlordecone in soils and water for numerous decades even centuries causes global public health and socio-ec...
Carbofuran (2,3-dihydro-2-2-dimethyl-7-benzofuranyl-Nmethylcarbamate) is a very effective systemic and contact insecticide and nematicide used against a wide range of agricultural pests (Aquino and Pathak, 1976; Caro et al., 1973). Though less persistent than most organochlorine pesticides, carbofuran is more toxic to animals, it is very soluble in water and tends to degrade faster under floode...
The effect of environmental pollutants on honeybee behaviour has focused mainly on currently used pesticides. However, honeybees are also exposed to persistent organic pollutants (POPs). The aim of this laboratory based study was to determine if exposure to sublethal field-relevant concentrations of POPs altered the spontaneous behaviour of foraging-age worker honeybees. Honeybees (Apis mellife...
This paper describes results from a systematic review and a series of meta-analyses of nearly three decades worth of epidemiologic research on the relationship between non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and occupational exposure to agricultural pesticide active ingredients and chemical groups. Estimates of associations of NHL with 21 pesticide chemical groups and 80 active ingredients were extracted fr...
Exposure to high levels of many pesticides has both acute and long-term neurologic consequences, but little is known about the neurotoxicity of chronic exposure to moderate levels of pesticides. We analyzed cross-sectional data from 18,782 white male licensed private pesticide applicators enrolled in the Agricultural Health Study in 1993-1997. Applicators provided information on lifetime pestic...
organochlorine compounds such as, polychlorinated biphenyls and organochlorine pesticides are among the best known classes of contaminants because of their potential for magnification and harmful biological effects. in this study, the amounts of organochlorine pesticides including d.d.t and its metabolites, α, β and γ-hchs isomers, σcyclodiene (endosulfan, heptachlor, heotachlor epoxide, aldrin...
