Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) exposure affects early embryonic development and offspring oocyte quality via inducing mitochondrial dysfunction

open access: yesEnvironment International, 2022
Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) is a synthetic perfluorinated compound that is extensively used as an integral surfactant in commercial production. Owing to its hydrophilicity and persistence, PFOA can accumulate in living organisms and induce severe ...

Epigenetic toxicity and cytotoxicity of perfluorooctanoic acid and its effects on gene expression in embryonic mouse hypothalamus cells

open access: yesArhiv za Higijenu Rada i Toksikologiju, 2021
Even though the endocrine-disrupting potential of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) is well known, the mechanisms underlying its cellular and epigenetic toxicity at the critical stage of hypothalamic development are poorly understood.

Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) exposure in relation to the kidneys: A review of current available literature

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2023
Perfluorooctanoic acid is an artificial and non-degradable chemical. It is widely used due to its stable nature. It can enter the human body through food, drinking water, inhalation of household dust and contact with products containing perfluorooctanoic

Perfluorooctanoic acid affects mouse brain and liver tissue through oxidative stress

open access: yesArhiv za Higijenu Rada i Toksikologiju, 2022
The aim of this study was to investigate oxidative stress induced by perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) in the brain and liver tissues of Balb/c mice as well as protective effects of taurine and coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) in both organs.

Effect of dietary antioxidants on excretion of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) via regulating uptake transporters expression and intestinal permeability in mice

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2023
Dietary antioxidants, including 2,6-di-tert-butyl-hydroxytoluene (BHT), α-tocopherol (αT) and tea polyphenol (TP), have been widely used in food. However, no data about the effect of food antioxidants on PFOA excretion were available.
