Inhaled exposure to air fresheners aggravated liver injury in a murine model of nonalcoholic fatty acid liver disease.

ABSTRACT: At present, the consumption and use of air fresheners (AFs) is rapidly increasing worldwide for the purposes of odor removal and to create a pleasant odor. Many recent studies have strongly suggested that the potentially hazardous chemicals emitted from AFs may be the primary source of indoor air pollutants and may cause adverse health effects. Despite the presence of hazardous chemicals in AFs, potential adverse health effects and risk assessment of AFs have not yet been established. The incidence of nonalcoholic fatty acid liver disease (NAFLD) around the world is rapidly increasing, as with obesity and diabetes, and is one of the most common causes of liver disease worldwide. Based on the demonstrated evidence that NAFLD could eventually develop into further health complications such as
