4-n-octylphenol is alkylphenol widely used as a surfactant. 4-n-octylphenol exposure was associated with idiopathic male infertility. Fetal exposure to the very weak estrogenicity of 4-n-octylphenol could enhance the induction of mammary carcinomas but not affect the induction of benign proliferative lesions. It is an endocrine-disrupting chemical. 4-n-octylphenol is an agonist and antagonist of estrogen receptor and androgen receptor, respectively. 4-n-octylphenol at high doses caused reduction in mammary tumor development in female human c-Ha-ras proto-oncogene transgenic rats and possibly non-transgenic rats.
