2023, Environment InternationalCitation Excerpt :However, the third and leading hypothesis to the main causes of chemically-induced eggshell thinning by DDE was the inhibition of the excretion of calcium, and to a lesser degree carbonate, from the shell gland to the uterine cavity (Cooke, 1973; Lundholm, 1997; Holm et al., 2006). Subsequent studies attempting to elucidate the mechanism of action of DDE demonstrated that decreased calcium excretion was largely mediated through the inhibition of the synthesis of cyclooxygenases, and subsequently prostaglandins (Lundholm, 1997). Cyclooxygenases are enzymes responsible for forming prostanoid eicosanoids, a diverse array of lipid-based signaling molecules, including prostaglandins, thromboxanes, and prostacyclins (Alexanian and Sorokin, 2017).
