Perinatal exposure to the phthalates DEHP, BBP, and DINP, but not DEP, DMP, or DOTP, alters sexual differentiation of the male rat.

TL;DR: It is hypothesized that the phthalate esters that altered testis function in the pubertal male rat would also alter testisfunction in the fetal male and produce malformations of androgen-dependent tissues and, in summary, DEHP, BBP, and DINP all altered sexual differentiation, whereas DOTP, DEP, or DMP were ineffective at this dose.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Mixture of Five Phthalate Esters Inhibits Fetal Testicular Testosterone Production in the Sprague-Dawley Rat in a Cumulative, Dose-Additive Manner

TL;DR: In this article, the authors characterized the dose-response effects of six individual phthalates (BBP, DBP, DEHP, diethyl hexyl phthalate [DEP], DiBP, DiBP and Dipentyl Phthalate (DPP) on testicular testosterone production following exposure of Sprague-Dawley rats on GD 8-18.

production in the Sprague Dawley rat in a cumulative, dose additive manner.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that individual phthalates with a similar mechanism of action can elicit cumulative, dose additive effects on fetal testosterone production and pregnancy when administered as a mixture.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adverse effects of environmental antiandrogens and androgens on reproductive development in mammals1

TL;DR: Information is presented on the classes of environmental chemicals that display antiandrogenic and androgenic activities in vitro and in vivo and an insight into how exposure to mixtures these chemicals might behave in utero is provided.
