19479021 Alyea RA, Watson CS: Differential regulation of dopamine transporter function and location by low concentrations of environmental estrogens and 17beta-estradiol. Environ Health Perspect. 2009 May;117(5):778-83. Epub 2009 Jan 5.

OBJECTIVE: We examined low concentrations of XEs [dieldrin, endosulfan, o', p'-dichlorodiphenyl-ethylene (DDE), nonylphenol (NP), and bisphenol A (BPA)] for nongenomic actions via action of membrane estrogen receptors (ERs).
