From: Embryonic exposure to the fungicide vinclozolin causes virilization of females and alteration of progesterone receptor expression in vivo: an experimental study in mice

Figure 4

Estrogen receptor α mRNA expression in females and males compared between control and treated groups. In vinclozolin-treated females, mRNA expression was significantly lower compared to controls. In treated males, mRNA expression was significantly higher compared to controls. *, P < 0.05 compared to same-sex controls. Males, females = mice born to dams gavaged with corn oil only. TxdM = treated males; TxdF = treated females. Treated animals were born to females gavaged with 50/mg/kg vinclozolin daily from E13 through E17.
