In vitro endocrine disruption potential of organophosphate flame retardants via human nuclear receptors

Highlights • Nuclear receptor activities of OPFRs were studied by in vitro reporter gene assays. • TPhP and TCP acted as ERα/β and PXR agonists as well as AR and GR antagonists. • TDCPP was the most potent AR antagonist among the tested OPFRs. • None of the OPFRs had TRα/β, RARα, RXRα, or PPARα/γ ac...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Nuclear receptor activities of OPFRs were studied by in vitro reporter gene assays. • TPhP and TCP acted as ERα/β and PXR agonists as well as AR and GR antagonists. • TDCPP was the most potent AR antagonist among the tested OPFRs. • None of the OPFRs had TRα/β, RARα, RXRα, or PPARα/γ activity. • Several OPFRs might be endocrine disruptors via ERα/β, AR, GR, or PXR.
