from article:

We found the lower doses of BPA to be capable of activating several growth-factor-receptor pathways that previously have been implicated in cancer (http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/info/cancer-oncology/). This was not observed with the higher BPA doses," Jenkins says. "This is counterintuitive since BPA in low levels was presumed to be safe."
