Our latest publication has been featured as a Tox Spotlight Article by the journal of the Society of Toxicology! #Phthalates #EnvironmentalHealth #EndocrineDisruption
Di-n-butyl phthalate tampers with the ovarian IGF1, providing molecular insight into how #Phthalates could influence the ovarian reserve. #ToxSpotlight #FreeToRead @zrcraig @LabCraig doi.org/10.1093/toxsci/kfad0…
We demonstrate low follicle counts, reduced activated IGF1 receptor signaling in the ovary after human-relevant exposure to di-n-butyl phthalate in young adult mice

Excited to celebrate #WorldIPDay in 6 days & recognize innovators like Jennifer Barton, Director of @UAZBIO5 🔬🧫 Her work in biomedical imaging & optics led to advancements in cancer diagnosis & treatment: bit.ly/JenniferBartonTLAInte…
#ThrowbackThursday
Back in 2016, we reported that the phthalate substitute, acetyl tributyl citrate (ATBC), increased spleen weight and decreased small ovarian follicle numbers in mice treated orally with a low dose never tested before.

That one time we measured the distribution of mono butyl phthalate to the ovary and liver in adult female mice fed with dibutyl phthalate and observed evidence of adaption during single vs repeated dosing schemes.

#Throwback to when we found that oral exposure to a phthalate lowers ovarian expression of BRCA1 mRNA and protein in mice.
Environmentally relevant exposure to dibutyl phthalate disrupts DNA damage repair gene expression in the mouse ovary

So proud of Dr. Jauregui!! 🎉🎉
#MeetOurPostdocs: Dr. Estela Jauregui is a @UArizona ACBS #postdoc fellow in the lab of @UAZBIO5 member Dr. @zrcraig. Dr. Jauregui is studying the sex differences in reproductive toxicity caused by phthalates, an ingredient common in many personal care products. #DISCOVERBIO5
Our postdoc Dr. Estela Jauregui was awarded a BIO5 Institute Postdoctoral Fellowship Award to study sex differences in reproductive toxicity by phthalates! Way to go, Estela!!
Congratulations to our most recent Postdoctoral Fellowship Awardees! Chosen from a competitive pool of @UArizona #postdocs, all 8 are collaborating with faculty @UAZBIO5, working in fields from #plant science to #cancer. Read more and #DISCOVERBIO5.
