Article Synopsis
  • Bisphenol A (BPA) is an endocrine-disrupting chemical commonly found in plastics, linked to serious health issues like cancer, obesity, and kidney dysfunction.
  • Recent research studied the effects of BPA on the kidneys of female mice, comparing a group exposed to BPA with a control group.
  • The analysis revealed 433 differentially expressed genes, indicating that BPA disrupts essential kidney processes, particularly affecting mitochondrial function and increasing oxidative stress.

Assadov, 1953 was formally described in roe deer and has been reported in a wide range of ruminants, including other Cervidae, as well as Bovidae. Nematode specimens derived from various host species exhibit morphological similarity; however, some differences can be observed. It is unclear if this is due to the differential reaction of one nematode species in different host species (i.
