Effects of azole fungicides on the function of sex and thyroid hormones

Figure 8 - Agonistic effect measured in the AhR CALUX reporter gene assay. Concentration response curves for the four fungicides epoxiconazole, prochloraz, propiconazole, and tebuconazole and for the AhR agonist TCDD. For concentrations above 10 μM a decrease of luciferase activity was seen for prochloraz, which is due to a cytotoxic effect. * The prochloraz data is from a previous conducted study in 2002.
