2‑Ethylhexyl Diphenyl Phosphate and Its Hydroxylated Metabolites are Anti-androgenic and Cause Adverse Reproductive Outcomes in Male Japanese Medaka (Oryzias latipes) by Yu Li (183836)

“…Although high concentrations of 2-ethylhexyl diphenyl phosphate (EHDPP) have been detected in wild fish, its reproductive toxicity in fish remains unclear. In this study, we for the first time observed that EHDPP elicited androgen receptor (AR) antagonistic activity with a 50% inhibitory concentration of 37.5 μM. 2-Ethyl-5-hydroxyhexyl diphenyl phosphate was proved to be the dominant metabolite of EHDPP in Japanese medaka and elicited 3.1-fold stronger AR antagonistic activity than that of EHDPP. …”
