It can affect mam- Steroid sex hormones malian reproductive capability by impacting the synthesis and secretion of sex hormones, including testosterone, Steroidogenesis estradiol and progesterone. This review summarizes the mechanisms in which ZEA and its derivatives disturb the Leydig cell synthesis and secretion of sex steroid hormones. Because of its structural analogy to estrogen, ZEA and its Granulosa cell derivatives can exert a variety of estrogen-like effects and engage in estrogen negative feedback regulation, which can result in mediating the production of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) in the pituitary gland. ZEA and its derivatives can ultimately reduce the number of Leydig cells and granulosa cells by inducing oxidative stress, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, cell cycle arrest, cell apoptosis, and cell regeneration delay. Additionally, they can disrupt the mitochondrial structure and influence mi- tochondrial functions through overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and aberrant autophagy sig- naling ways. Finally, ZEA and its derivatives can disturb the expressions and activities of the related steroido- genic enzymes through cross talking between membrane and nuclear estrogen receptors. 1. Introduction these contaminated cereal commodities may have contributed to the worldwide dispersal of ZEA (Zinedine et al., 2007). Several studies Zearalenone (ZEA), also known as F-2 mycotoxin, is a non-steroidal carried out in Europe and in transcontinental countries, reported the estrogen mycotoxin produced by several species of Fusarium fungi high incidence of ZEA in cereals and in animal feeding stuffs(Miraglia (Stanciu et al., 2018; Tatay et al., 2016). These fungi can contaminate et al., 2009). The impact of climate on ZEA occurs through multiple cereal grains, including maize, wheat, sorghum, barley, and oats, and pathways. Changes in air and water temperatures, weather-related produce ZEA in the field and farm or during harvest and storage at a changes, and extreme events can shift the seasonal and geographic low temperature and high humidity (Ali and Degen, 2018; Dellafiora occurrence of fungi contaminants (Castro-Ibanez et al., 2015; Wu et al., et al., 2017).

In this study, a purified bacterial isolate, Bacillus sp. S62-W, obtained from one of 104 corn silage samples from various silos located in the United States, exhibited activity to transform the mycotoxin ZEA. A novel microbial transformation product, ZEA-14-phosphate, was detected, purified, and identified by HPLC, LC-MS, and NMR analyses. The isolate has been identified as belonging to the genus Bacillus according to phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene and whole genome alignments. The isolate showed high efficacy in transforming ZEA to ZEA-14-phosphate (100% transformation within 24 h) and possessed advantages of acid tolerance (work at pH = 4.0), working under a broad range of temperatures (22–42 ◦C), and a capability of transforming ZEA at high concentrations (up to 200 µg/mL). In addition, 23 Bacillus strains of various species were tested for their ZEA phosphorylation activity.

    TemaNord 2017:541 Phytoestrogens in foods on the Nordic market the Nordic on foods in 2017:541 Phytoestrogens TemaNord Nordic Council of Ministers Nordens Hus Ved Stranden 18 DK-1061 Copenhagen K www.norden.org Phytoestrogens in foods on the Nordic market Phytoestrogens are plant-derived compounds that may bind to estrogen receptors, but with less affinity than the natural ligand estradiol. They may be biologically active as such or after metabolization in our body. To investigate the occurrence and level of phytoestrogens, scientific literature was screened for data on isoflavones, lignans, stilbenes and coumestans in raw and processed foods of plant origin. The review presents data based both on analytical methods hydrolysing glucosides and non-destructive methods. Many phytoestrogens are phytoalexins. Their production is induced when plants are exposed to abiotic and/or biotic stress. This could explain the rather different levels reported in plants by various investigators, and indicates that many samples are required to describe the levels generally occurring in foodstuffs. The influence of food processing was also considered.

Breast cancer is the most common cancer occurring in women and causing the highest number of deaths among them. The role of xenoestrogens has been the subject of many studies in the pathogenesis of breast cancer. Less is known about the impact of xenoestrogens on the effectiveness of hormone therapy used to treat breast cancer, and thus possible drug-xenostrogen interactions. Objective. The aim of this review is to summarize the current state of knowledge and present perspectives for further research on the impact of xenoestrogens on the effectiveness of drugs used in the treatment of hormone-dependent breast cancer.
