- Effects of perinatal exposure to bisphenol A or S in EAE model of multiple sclerosis. [Journal Article]Cell Tissue Res. 2023 Feb 08 [Online ahead of print]CT
- Epidemiological studies support the idea that multiple sclerosis (MS) is a multifactorial disease, overlapping genetic, epigenetic, and environmental factors. A better definition of environmental risks is critical to understand both etiology and the sex-related differences of MS. Exposure to endocrine-disrupting compounds (EDCs) fully represents one of these risks. EDCs are natural or synthetic e…
