Abstract | Although the herbicide linuron is banned for use in the EU due to its reproductive and developmental toxicity, it can still be found in randomly sampled foods grown in and outside the EU. It is not clear if metabolites of linuron can contribute to the endocrine disrupting effects following exposure to the parent compound. To address this gap, we analysed linuron and the metabolites 1-(3,4-dichlorophenyl) urea (DCU), 3,4-dichloroaniline (DCA) and 1-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-3-methoxyurea (DCXU) for androgen receptor (AR) activities and effects on steroidogenesis. Generally, linuron and the metabolites showed qualitatively similar antiandrogenic profiles, but potencies varied. All compounds were AR antagonists, with linuron showing highest potency (IC |
