Application of three statistical approaches to explore effects of dietary intake of multiple persistent organic pollutants on ER-positive breast cancer risk in the French E3N cohort.

Sci Rep

January 2025

Inserm, Gustave Roussy, Centre for Research in Epidemiology and Population Health (CESP), "Exposome, Heredity, Cancer, and Health" Team, Université Paris-Saclay, UVSQ, 12 Avenue Paul Vaillant Couturier, 94805, Villejuif, France.

Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are a group of organic chemical compounds. Contradictory results have emerged in epidemiological studies attempting to elucidate their relationship with breast cancer risk. This study explored the relationship between dietary exposures to multiple POPs and ER-positive breast cancer risk in the French E3N cohort study, using three different approaches to handle multicollinearity among exposures.

The study aims to evaluate how bacteriocin and extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) can influence the development of active packaging for food. The components might enhance the performance of packaging materials in terms of their physicochemical properties and their effectiveness in preserving food. Bacteriocin and EPS exert a significant effect in blocking the transmission of UV and visible light radiations.

Background: Mycotoxin, a secondary metabolite of fungus, found worldwide and concerning in crops and food, causing multiple acute and chronic toxicities. Its toxic profile includes hepatotoxicity, carcinogenicity, teratogenicity, estrogenicity, immunotoxicity, and neurotoxicity, leading to deleterious impact on human and animal health. Emerging evidence suggests that it adversely affects perinatal health, progeny by its ability to cross placental barriers.
