Zusammenfassung

Eine wachsende Zahl an Substanzen, die in vielen Bereichen des täglichen Lebens und in der Natur vorkommen, können heute als Umwelthormone bezeichnet werden. Hormonelle Wirkungen werden nur bestimmten Stoffen zugeschrieben, denen wir trotz der relativ restriktiven gesundheitspolitischen Richtlinien in Europa täglich ausgesetzt sind. Zwar sind spezifische hormonelle Störungen für einzelne Substanzen belegt, doch sind die Interaktionen der verschiedenen Substanzen, die im Einzelnen in nur sehr geringen Mengen beim Menschen nachweisbar sind, nur unzulänglich analysiert und auch nur schwer messbar. Der Artikel gibt einen Überblick über die bekanntesten Stoffgruppen mit endokriner Wirkung. Ihre individuelle Wirkweise, ihr Vorkommen und einige der bisher nachgewiesenen Effekte im Tierversuch oder beim Menschen werden beschrieben.
