Cytotoxic and genotoxic effects of environmental relevant concentrations of bisphenol A and interactions with doxorubicin.

Bisphenol A (BPA) is one of the most widely utilized endocrine disruptors to which humans are exposed, particularity through ingestion. BPA is an aneugenic compound with a putative association to tumorigenesis. Although extensively studied in estrogen responsive cells, information regarding its effects on cells from the upper gastrointestinal tract exposed to free/active forms of BPA is still scarce.
