Some may question whether this is a true cluster because each of the babies had a different constellation of defects, and none of the pesticides to which the mothers were probably exposed can be linked (in animal or human studies) to all of the observed defects.
Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), linked in laboratory animals to an increase in tumours of the liver, pancreas and testicles and reduced fertility, is one of the chemicals used in the chain of reactions that makes the common non-stick surface Teflon.

However, it has been proposed by others, using evidence from the conserved syntenic position of several genes, that FGFR and FGF8/17/18 orthologues were linked in the ancestor of bilaterian animals [ 21].
It has previously been suggested that FGFR8/17/18 and FGFR orthologous genes were probably linked in the ancestor of bilaterian animals [ 1, 21].
It may even contribute to breakouts, according to one study that concluded acne is linked, in part, to our western diet of excessive animal proteins.
Those within the animal research world say it has created a climate of fear among those working in laboratories or linked in any way with HLS.
Since pE-Aβ confers exceptional neurotoxicity [ 1, 47] and since intraneuronal pE-Aβ generation has been linked to neurodegeneration in animal models of AD [ 7, 72], QC-expressing EWN, LC and NbM neurons appear to be at high risk.
Repression of the immune response can be linked to survival in animals that have a high energy reserve demand.
Because of the popularity of the doctrine of continual rebirth, which linked animals and humans in the same cycle of birth, death, and rebirth, unnecessary killing had become objectionable to many people.
