Abstract excerpt
There has been growing concern about the potential threat of hormone-disrupting chemicals like bisphenol A to various aspects of animal and human health. We studied the effects of bisphenol A on the Cl(-) secretion in human airway epithelial Calu-3 cells. Pretreatment with bisphenol A (IC(50) = 60 microM, for 30 min) prevented isoproterenol (10 nM)-generated short-circuit current (I(sc)) more potently than...
