Chlordecone (CD) is an insecticide that was used in the French West Indies for several years to control the banana root borer pest. Given its nonsignificant degradation, it persists in the environment. CD is a carcinogenic compound with reproductive and developmental toxicity and is a recognized endocrine-disrupting chemical. In this study, we examined the effects of CD on female reproductive. Unusual cell cycles (with reference to the MAC) are triggered in cells with a total G1 amount of MAC DNA outside a predetermined range. When the upper threshold is exceeded, the cell divides without MAC DNA replication; when the G1 amount is below the lower threshold, two rounds of MAC DNA replication occur before cell division.
