Journal ArticleDOI
In vitro study on the agonistic and antagonistic activities of bisphenol-S and other bisphenol-A congeners and derivatives via nuclear receptors.

TL;DR: Findings provide evidence that BPA congeners and derivatives disrupt multiple NRs and may therefore interfere with the endocrine system, and further research is needed to evaluate the potential endocrine-disrupting activity of putative BPA substitutes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prenatal co-exposure to neurotoxic metals and neurodevelopment in preschool children: The Environment and Childhood (INMA) Project
Carmen Freire,Esperanza Amaya,Fernando Gil,Mariana F. Fernández,Mario Murcia,Sabrina Llop,Ainara Andiarena,J. J. Aurrekoetxea,Mariona Bustamante,Mònica Guxens,Esteban Ezama,Guillermo Fernández-Tardón,Nicolás Olea +12 more
TL;DR: Prenatal exposure to As and Hg may be a risk factor for cognitive and motor impairment in children, while the effects of Cd and Mn on neurodevelopment are less clear.
Journal ArticleDOI
Newborn TSH concentration and its association with cognitive development in healthy boys.
Carmen Freire,Rosa Ramos,Esperanza Amaya,Mariana F. Fernández,Piedad Santiago-Fernández,Maria-Jose Lopez-Espinosa,Juan P. Arrebola,Nicolás Olea +7 more
TL;DR: Newborn thyroid hormone status expressed by TSH in cord blood may adversely affect later cognitive function and a more thorough screening for neonatal thyroid deficiency is warranted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Placental metal concentrations and birth outcomes: The Environment and Childhood (INMA) project
Carmen Freire,Esperanza Amaya,Fernando Gil,Mario Murcia,Sabrina Llop,Maribel Casas,Martine Vrijheid,Aitana Lertxundi,Amaia Irizar,Guillermo Fernández-Tardón,Rafael Vicente Castro-Delgado,Nicolás Olea,Mariana F. Fernández,Inma +13 more
TL;DR: Data suggest that in utero exposure to Cd, Hg, and Cr could adversely affect fetal growth, whereas Mn and Cr appear to have a positive effect on gestational age.
Journal ArticleDOI
Placental concentrations of heavy metals in a mother-child cohort
Esperanza Amaya,Fernando Gil,Carmen Freire,Carmen Freire,Pablo Olmedo,M. Fernández-Rodríguez,Mariana F. Fernández,Nicolás Olea +7 more
TL;DR: Gestational age and smoking during pregnancy were associated with placental Cd concentrations, while no factor appeared to influence concentrations of Cr, Hg, Mn, or Pb.
