The document discusses the neuro-immune interface and how endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) can impact the interactions between the nervous, immune, and endocrine systems, especially during development. It provides an example showing that hormone disruption during sensitive prenatal and early postnatal periods can influence brain sex development and adult sexual behavior through effects on immune cells in the brain called microglia. The summary concludes that more research is still needed to understand how EDC exposures may impact development by disrupting the complex interactions between the body's key regulatory systems during critical windows.
