Episode 62
Endocrine-disrupting chemicals are pretty much everywhere, and all of us have some level of exposure. Today we will talk about research presented at ENDO 2022 on a group of EDCs called parabens. The title of that abstract is “Parabens Promote Pro-Tumorigenic Effects in Luminal Breast Cancer Cell Lines With Diverse Genetic Ancestry.” Host Aaron Lohr talks with one of the authors of that study, Lindsey Treviño, PhD, assistant professor at City of Hope National Medical Center. They talk not just about the effects of parabens as an EDC, but also about racial and ethnic disparities in risk and mortality, as well as research, and how Dr. Treviño and colleagues address these disparities.
