In recent years the possibility of environmental oestrogens affecting the reproduction of vertebrates has become an issue of both public and scientific interest. Although the significance of such chemicals remains controversial there is clear evidence that, in some contexts, environmental
Weiguo Liu et al.
Bioorganic & medicinal chemistry letters, 15(20), 4574-4578 (2005-08-30)
A series of podocarpic acid amides were identified as potent agonists for Liver X receptor alpha and beta subtypes, which are members of a nuclear hormone receptor superfamily that are involved in the regulation of a variety of metabolic pathways
D J Bennett et al.
