Based on the perspectives of the environment, food, and health, this review reflects on previous research examining stem cells for the early detection of chemical hazards and the development of preventive health tools. The risks posed by endocrine-disrupting chemicals in the environment are investigated, including studies on 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD), phthalate esters, and bisphenol A. Building on the findings of these studies, this review identifies emerging challenges in the field of endocrine-disrupting chemical research.

2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) is highly toxic with potential impacts on aging. While previous studies have linked TCDD exposure to reduced telomere length and altered sperm DNA methylation (DNAm) age, its relationship with epigenetic aging remains unclear. This study investigated the association between serum TCDD levels and epigenetic clocks derived from DNAm in whole blood in older adults.

2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD), the most potent organic environmental contaminant known to date, is recognized as a human carcinogen. Despite the documented link between TCDD exposure and epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) in mammalian females, the molecular mechanisms underlying cancer initiation remain elusive. Emerging evidence suggests aberrant miRNA expression in various human malignancies, including OC.

Activated carbon (AC) is an effective sorbent for sequestering dioxin-like compounds, thereby reducing their bioavailability. Consequently, AC amendment is a promising tool for remediating dioxin-polluted soils, but tracking remediation results requires quantification of the dioxins sequestered within ACs. Standard methods for quantifying dioxins in soils are often unable to extract dioxins from AC, so the present study addresses this gap by optimizing an accelerated solvent extraction (ASE) method.
