2020 review
Achieving CLARITY on bisphenol A, brain and behaviour
[Review of ]. JOURNAL OF NEUROENDOCRINOLOGY, 32(1).
author keywords: amygdala; anxiety; EDC; endocrine disrupting chemical; hypothalamus; oxytocin
MeSH headings : Animals; Behavior, Animal / drug effects; Benzhydryl Compounds / toxicity; Brain / drug effects; Endocrine Disruptors / toxicity; Female; Humans; Male; Neurons / drug effects; Phenols / toxicity; Pregnancy; Sex Differentiation / drug effects; United States; United States Food and Drug Administration
TL;DR:
Evidence of altered neuroendocrine development, including age‐ and sex‐specific expression of oestrogen receptor (ER)α and ERβ, and the abrogation of brain and behavioural sexual dimorphisms, supports the conclusion that developmental BPA exposure, even at doses below what regulatory agencies regard as “safe” for humans, contribute to brain and behaviour change.

Regulation of ovule initiation by gibberellins and brassinosteroids in tomato and Arabidopsis: two plant species, two molecular mechanisms
The Plant Journal.
author keywords: Arabidopsis thaliana; tomato; Solanum lycopersicum; gibberellins; brassinosteroids; ovule; reproductive development; hormone interaction
MeSH headings : Arabidopsis / genetics; Arabidopsis / metabolism; Arabidopsis Proteins / genetics; Arabidopsis Proteins / metabolism; Brassinosteroids / metabolism; Gene Expression Regulation, Plant / genetics; Gene Expression Regulation, Plant / physiology; Gibberellins / metabolism; Solanum lycopersicum / genetics; Solanum lycopersicum / metabolism; Plant Proteins / genetics; Plant Proteins / metabolism; Signal Transduction / genetics; Signal Transduction / physiology
