Effects of Xenoestrogens on the Differentiation of Behaviorally Relevant Neural Circuits in Higher Vertebrates
TLDR
The data presented here should stimulate a critical reanalysis of the way to determine the “safe” exposure levels to EDCs for wild species and humans, considering behavior and related neural circuits among the factors to be analyzed.
Reproductive Neuroendocrine Targets of Developmental Exposure to Endocrine Disruptors
TLDR
The available experimental animal and epidemiological data are supportive of a potential role of EDCs on alterations of neuroendocrine development, and on pubertal onset, as well as the majority of the studies summarized herein focus on laboratory animals.

Effects of estrous cycle and xenoestrogens expositions on mice nitric oxide producing system.
TLDR
It is revealed that the expression of neuronal NO synthase may vary according to the rapid variations of hormonal levels that take place during the estrous cycle, in accordance with the hypothesis that gonadal hormone activation of NO-cGMP pathway is important for mating behavior.

TLDR
BPA research has actively integrated current knowledge of developmental biology, concepts of endocrine disruption, and toxicological research to provide a basis for human health risk assessment.
The effects of bisphenol A on emotional behavior depend upon the timing of exposure, age and gender in mice
Environmental Endocrine Disruption of Brain and Behavior
Sexually dimorphic behavior after developmental exposure to characterize endocrine-mediated effects of different non-dioxin-like PCBs in rats.
Effects of Perinatal Administration of Bisphenol A on the Neuronal Nitric Oxide Synthase Expressing System in the Hypothalamus and Limbic System of CD1 Mice
TLDR
Results indicate that BPA has a powerful effect on specific portions of the nNOS‐immunoreactive system belonging to the accessory olfactory system that are particularly important for the control of sexual behaviour and confirm that perinatal exposure to endocrine‐disrupting chemicals, in particular to BPA, may have a high impact on the organisation of specific neural pathways that can later affect complex behaviours and functions.

Xenoestrogen exposure and mechanisms of endocrine disruption.
TLDR
Environmental xenoestrogens can be divided into natural compounds (e.g. from plants or fungi), and synthetically derived agents including certain drugs, pesticides and industrial by-products, which are thought to have a number of beneficial actions.

TLDR
From the studies reviewed here, the reproductive toxicity of methoxychlor is evident, but the significance of this toxicity with respect to human health remains to be determined.

TLDR
New approaches reveal more about the extent of the distribution of and exposure to chemicals that interfere with the endocrine and nervous systems and strengthen the links between exposure and damage in developing wildlife and humans.
Estrogenic actions in the brain: estrogen, phytoestrogens, and rapid intracellular signaling mechanisms.
TLDR
The role of estrogens in the central nervous system is focused on, and some of the known mechanisms through which estrogen's effects are mediated are discussed, focusing on rapid intracellular signaling mechanisms during neurodevelopment.
