Recently it was discovered that the perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) detected in wildlife, such as fish-eating birds, had a greater proportion of linear PFOS (L-PFOS) than the manufactured technical product (T-PFOS), which contains linear and branched isomers. This suggests toxicological studies bas...

Most of the transcriptional changes induced by PFOS in the fetal mouse liver and lung were related to activation of PPARalpha. When compared to the transcript profiles induced by PFOA (Pubmed ID 17681415), few remarkable differences were found other than up-regulation of Cyp3a genes. Because PFOS ...

Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) has been manufactured for over 50 years in increasing quantities and has been used for several industrial and commercial aims. Due to the persistence and the bioaccumulation of this pollutant, it can be found worldwide in wildlife and humans. Biochemical effects of P...

Perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) is a persistent, bio-accumulative pollutant that has been used for the last 60+ years in numerous industrial and commercial applications. In mice, PFOS administration is known to induce hepatomegaly and hepatic steatosis. The aim of the present study was to evalua...

Perfluoroalkyl acid carboxylates and sulfonates (PFAAs) have many consumer and industrial applications. The persistence and widespread distribution of these compounds in humans have brought them under intense scrutiny. Limited pharmacokinetic data is available in humans; however, human data exists f...

PFOS and PFOA are persistent organic pollutants known to impair human reproduction, but their effects and molecular mechanisms on human sperm remain unclear. Here, we conducted comprehensive proteomic and phosphoproteomic profiling of human sperm exposed to PFOS and PFOA during capacitation to provi...

Bees are threatened by multiple stressors, including environmental contaminants such as perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS). In this exposure effect study, small whole colonies of A. mellifera (2500 bees) were exposed to sublethal PFOS concentrations (5 to 20 µg L-1 in sugar syrup) over a 25-day period...

Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) is a perfluoroalkyl acid (PFAA) and a persistent environmental contaminant found in the tissues of humans and wildlife. Although blood levels of PFOS have begun to decline, health concerns remain because of the long half-life of PFOS in humans. Like other PFAAs, suc...
ORGANISM(S): Mus musculus 
Perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS) has been widely used in a variety of industrial and commercial applications as a surfactant and stain repellent. PFOS causes liver damage (including liver tumors) in experimental animals, primarily via interaction with PPARa and CAR/PXR. We investigated the involvemen...
