Investigating the endocrine disrupting potential and cytotoxic effects of packaging leachates and plasticisers
… which leach out of plastic materials often have hormonal activity, therefore highlighting the potential for endocrine disrupting leachates to be present. This thesis assessed novel naturally produced bio-based polymers that are currently being explored as a potentially safer alternative to …

Synthesis and structure activity relationships of ring D modified steroidal hormones
… and discussed in relation to biological activity. These analogues will contribute toward defining the structural parameters responsible for certain pattern of hormonal activity, and hence, the ultimate goal of predictive drug design.

Calcium/Phosphate Regulation: A Control Engineering Approach
… but simultaneously, regulated via the same hormonal actions. Chronic imbalances in plasma Ca levels are associated with disorders of the regulatory organs, which cause abnormal hormonal secretion and activity. These changes in hormonal activity may lead to long-term problems, such as, …

Regio- und stereoselektive Synthese von Sesquiterpenen und hormonell aktiven Cholesterinderivaten
In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird die Anwendung der Lewis-Säure vermittelten Cycloadditionen von Allylsilanen an alpha,beta-ungesättigte Carbonylverbindungen beschrieben. Das Sesquiterpen Isocomen wurde unter Anwendung der [3+2]-Cycloaddition an Enone synthetisch hergestellt. Die [2+2]-Cycloaddition …

THE ROLE OF BETA-KLOTHO PROTEIN IN NAFLD PATHOGENESIS
… receptors 4 (FGFR4), mediates in the liver the hormonal activity of FGF19 and plays a central role in the regulation of lipid metabolism and in bile acids’ biosynthesis. Thus, a stable KLB full knock-out model in HepG2 hepatoma cells (KLB-/-) has been generated by using Crispr/Cas9 technology, …

Effects of feeding ractopamine (Paylean®) to immunologically castrated (Improvest®) pigs on growth performance, carcass yields, and further processing characteristics
… Androstenone is a testicular steroid that has no hormonal activity but functions merely as a sex pheromone. Contrary to androstenone which is only produced in males, skatole is produced by both males and females via bacterial digestion of the amino acid tryptophan in the hind gut of pigs from …
