Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Amrita Kaimal"
- Amrita Kaimal's recent research primarily investigates the effects of prenatal exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) like bisphenol A (BPA) and diethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP) on offspring development, behavioral responses, and hormonal regulation in rodent models.
- One of her key findings highlighted that exposure to these chemicals during gestation significantly alters brain monoamine levels and stress responses in rat offspring, with notable differences based on sex and dose.
- Her work emphasizes the critical need to consider both independent and combined effects of multiple EDCs, revealing their potential to adversely impact pregnancy outcomes and the overall development of the offspring.
