Structures of Endocrine-Disrupting Chemicals Determine Binding to and Activation of the Estrogen Receptor α and Androgen Receptor
Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) can interact with nuclear receptors, including estrogen receptor α (ERα) and androgen receptor (AR), to affect the normal endocrine system function, causing severe symptoms. Limited studies queried…

Quantitative Structure–Activity Relationship Models for Predicting Inflammatory Potential of Metal Oxide Nanoparticles
Although substantial concerns about the inflammatory effects of engineered nanomaterial (ENM) have been raised, experimentally assessing toxicity of various ENMs is challenging and time-consuming. Alternatively, quantitative structure–activity relationship (QSAR) models…
