Assessment of potential impacts of chemicals on the environment traditionally involves regulatory standard data requirements for acute aquatic toxicity testing using algae, daphnids and fish (e.g., OECD test guidelines (TG) 201, 202, and 203, respectively), representing different trophic levels.

Background: The "Healthy China" initiative, along with advancements in technology for cancer diagnosis and treatment, has significantly enhanced outcomes for patients with gynecologic tumors. The trends of late marriage and delayed childbirth have led to an increasing number of women diagnosed with gynecologic cancers who are seeking fertility preservation in China. This issue is critical yet often overlooked in clinical practice.

Dimethyl phthalate (DMP) has been extensively utilized as a plasticizer on a global scale for many years. Its presence in the environment and its harmful effects on living organisms have raised concerns. This study aimed to examine its potential developmental neurotoxicity by utilizing zebrafish as a model.

In the germ line and during early embryogenesis, DNA methylation (DNAme) undergoes global erasure and re-establishment to support germ cell and embryonic development. While DNAme acquisition during male germ cell development is essential for setting genomic DNA methylation imprints, other intergenerational roles for paternal DNAme in defining embryonic chromatin are unknown. Through conditional gene deletion of the de novo DNA methyltransferases Dnmt3a and/or Dnmt3b, we observe that DNMT3A primarily safeguards against DNA hypomethylation in undifferentiated spermatogonia, while DNMT3B catalyzes de novo DNAme during spermatogonial differentiation.

The use of Japanese herbal medicines (Kampo medicines), rooted in centuries of traditional practice, lacks extensive Western scientific validation regarding their safety. Concerns include potential risks such as placental dysplasia, miscarriage, teratogenicity, and fetotoxicity when administered to pregnant women. Therefore, scientific safety evaluations are crucial for the appropriate use of Kampo medicines during pregnancy.
