An evidence based comprehensive review on thiacloprid, a pesticide residue, induced toxicity: Unveiling hazard to human health.

Thiacloprid, a hazardous neonicotinoid insecticide, prevalent in daily agricultural practices, raises concerns due to the harmful effects of its residues on food items, and on unintended organisms poses a significant threat to human health. Introduced in 1990, Thiacloprid have gained popularity for its perceived effectiveness and reduced risks to non-target animals. However, emerging research in recent years reports significant toxic effects of Thiacloprid on non-target species, spanning neurotoxicity, immunotoxicity, hepatotoxicity, nephrotoxicity, and reproductive issues. Mammalian studies, particularly involving rodents, reveal cognitive impairment, hippocampal damage, and hepatic abnormalities upon Thiacloprid exposure. Reproductive toxicity and DNA damage are imminent concerns, disrupting gestational epigenetic reprogramming and suggesting persistent effects on future generations. Genotoxic effects, Embryotoxic, and observed reproductive toxicity accentuate the need for caution in the utilization of Thiacloprid. This review highlights reported toxic effects produced by Thiacloprid in recent years, challenging the initial belief in its lower toxicity for vertebrates.

Exploring novel insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying Bisphenol A-induced toxicity: A persistent threat to human health.

Bisphenol A (BPA) is a ubiquitous industrial chemical used in the production of polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins, found in numerous consumer products. Despite its widespread use, its potential adverse health effects have raised significant concerns. This review explores the molecular mechanisms and evidence-based literature underlying BPA-induced toxicities and its implications for human health. BPA is an endocrine-disrupting chemical (EDC) which exhibits carcinogenic properties by influencing various receptors, such as ER, AhR, PPARs, LXRs, and RARs. It induces oxidative stress and contributes to cellular dysfunction, inflammation, and DNA damage, ultimately leading to various toxicities including but not limited to reproductive, cardiotoxicity, neurotoxicity, and endocrine toxicity. Moreover, BPA can modify DNA methylation patterns, histone modifications, and non-coding RNA expression, leading to epigenetic changes and contribute to carcinogenesis. Overall, understanding molecular mechanisms of BPA-induced toxicity is crucial for developing effective strategies and policies to mitigate its adverse effects on human health.
