Short-term perfluorooctane sulfonate exposure impairs Leydig cell regeneration in the adult rat testis via targeting hedgehog signaling

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021
Perfluorooctane sulfonate is related to male reproductive dysfunction in rats and humans. However, the underlying mechanism remains unknown. Here, we reported the effects of short-term exposure to perfluorooctane sulfonate on the regeneration of Leydig ...

Perfluorooctane Sulphonate-Induced Hepatic Ultrastructural Changes in Rats Ameliorated by Quercetin Via its Antioxidant-Defense Action [PDF]

The Egyptian Journal of Histology, 2023
Introduction: Perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are manufactured fluorinated chemicals, including Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), they cause dormant environmental toxicity.

Perfluorooctane sulfonate precursors as indirect sources of internal exposure to perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) [PDF]

, 2018
Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) is a pertluoroalkyl substance with extensive historical use. Its persistence, bioaccumulation, toxicity and health concerns led to its incorporation in the Stockholm Convention as a persistent organic pollutant in 2009 ...

Determinants of serum half-lives for linear and branched perfluoroalkyl substances after long-term high exposure—A study in Ronneby, Sweden

Environment International, 2022
Background: Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are persistent substances with surfactant and repellent properties. Municipal drinking water contaminated with PFAS had been distributed for decades to one third of households in Ronneby, Sweden. The

A rapid and high-throughput quantum dots bioassay for monitoring of perfluorooctane sulfonate in environmental water samples [PDF]

, 2011
Currently HPLC/MS is the state of the art tool for environmental/drinking water perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) monitoring. PFOS can bind to peroxisomal proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPARα), which forms heterodimers with retinoid X receptors
