UNTARGETED METABOLOMICS ANALYSIS REVEALS TOXICITY BASED ON THE SEX AND SEXUAL MATURITY OF SINGLE LOW-DOSE DEHP EXPOSURE

Untargeted Metabolomics Analysis Reveals Toxicity Based on the Sex and Sexual Maturity of Single Low-Dose DEHP Exposure

Di-(2-Ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) is a prevalent environmental endocrine disruptor that affects homeostasis, reproduction, and developmental processes.The effects of DEHP have been shown to differ based on sex and sexual maturity.This study examines the metabolic profiles of mature adult rats from both sexes, aged 10 weeks, and adolescent female r

Tiotropium and Fluticasone Inhibit Rhinovirus-Induced Mucin Production via Multiple Mechanisms in Differentiated Airway Epithelial Cells

Human rhinoviruses (HRVs) are associated with acute exacerbations in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma, which are accompanied by mucus hypersecretion.Whereas, various studies have shown that HRVs increase epithelial mucin production and thus may directly contribute to mucus hypersecretion.The effects of drugs use
