Abstract
Many pesticides possess hormonal activity and have been thus classified as endocrine disruptors. Permethrin, a pyrethroid insecticide has little been characterized to it's hormonal potential. In the present study, effects of neonatal exposure to permethrin on the sex steroid receptor levels and hoxa-10 expression of the uteri were investigated in female mice.(omitted)
