Environmental exposure increases the risk of dyslipidemia, which affects human health. Research has shown that persistent organic pollutants (POPs), including per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs), polychlorinated biphenyls, polybrominated diphenyl ethers, phthalate metabolites, are associated with a higher abnormal blood lipid levels in humans. However, key molecules involved dyslipidemia mechanisms not fully understood. This study aims to investigate biomarkers mediate relationships between lipids four groups POPs revealed their potential mechanisms. Specifically, 278 male samples, were measured metabolites detected using untargeted metabolomics. Spearman's correlation analysis binary logistic regression employed assess relationship indexes. We observed PFASs total cholesterol (TC) low-density lipoprotein (LDL), while other displayed little association Among all PFASs, 6:2Cl-PFESA was fewest metabolites. A metabolome-wide combined meet-in-the-middle approach used identify lipids. The mediation pointed 105 significant mediators as mediating TC, 82 mediated LDL. 24-Hydroxycholesterol, 3alpha,7alpha-dihydroxy-5beta-cholestan-26-al, PC(18:0/0:0), PC(22:5/0:0), GPCho(18:1/18:1), LysoPC(22:2(13Z,16Z)), LysoPC(16:0), 9(S)-HODE, 9,10-DHOME, l-glutamate, 4-hydroxybutyric acid, cytosine, PC(14:1(9Z)/18:0), sphinganine, (S)-beta-aminoisobutyrate identified important biomarkers. mechanism may mainly involves glycerophospholipid metabolism, primary bile acid biosynthesis, linoleic metabolism. PPARγ likely plays role associations Overall, our provides clues for early detection PFAS-induced brings forth theoretical framework further research into this mechanism.

The destruction of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) is critical to ensure effective remediation PFAS contaminated matrices. hazardous chemicals within incinerators other thermal treatment processes has historically been determined by calculating the efficiency (DE) or removal (DRE). While high DEs, >99.99%, are deemed acceptable for most compounds, many can be converted at low temperatures resulting in DEs without full mineralization potential release remaining fluorocarbon portions environment. Many these products incomplete combustion (PICs) greenhouse gases, have unknown toxicity, some react create new perfluorocarboxylic acids. Experiments using aqueous film forming foam (AFFF) a pilot-scale research combustor varied environment determine if indicate mineralization. Several operating conditions above 1090 °C resulted few detectable fluorinated PIC emissions. However, several below 1000 produced > 99.99% quantifiable mg/m3 emission concentrations nonpolar PICs. These results suggest that DE alone may not best indication total destruction, additional characterization warranted.

Emerging epidemiological evidence has linked per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) exposure could be to the disturbance of gestational glucolipid metabolism, but toxicological mechanism is unclear, especially when at a low level. This study examined metabolic changes in pregnant rats treated with relatively dose perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) through oral gavage during pregnancy [gestational day (GD): 1–18]. We explored molecular mechanisms underlying perturbation. Oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) biochemical tests were performed assess homeostasis serum lipid profiles Sprague-Dawley (SD) randomly assigned starch, 0.03 0.3 mg/kg·bw·d groups. Transcriptome sequencing combined non-targeted metabolomic assays further identify differentially altered genes metabolites liver maternal rats, determine their correlation phenotypes. Results transcriptome showed that expressed PFOS related several pathways, such as peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) signaling, ovarian steroid synthesis, arachidonic insulin resistance, cholesterol unsaturated fatty bile secretion. The untargeted metabolomics identified 164 158 differential groups, respectively under negative ion mode Electrospray Ionization (ESI-), which enriched pathways α-linolenic glycolysis/gluconeogenesis, glycerolipid glucagon signaling pathway, glycine, serine threonine metabolism. Co-enrichment analysis indicated may disturb metabolism glycerolipid, linoleic acid, biosynthesis, threonine. key involved included down-regulated Ppp1r3c Abcd2, up-regulated Ogdhland Ppp1r3g, increased glycerol 3-phosphate lactosylceramide identified. Both them significantly associated fasting blood (FBG) Our findings provide mechanistic clues for clarifying toxicity human, susceptible population women.

Prenatal exposure to metals has been associated with impaired neurodevelopment in children, but the detailed molecular mechanisms remain largely unknown. Based on Wuhan Healthy Baby Cohort, China (N = 1088), eleven were measured maternal urine during early pregnancy (13.1 ± 1.1 weeks) and metabolomics profiling was conducted cord blood. Neurodevelopment evaluated using Bayley Scales of Infant Development 2-year-old children obtain mental development index (MDI) psychomotor (PDI). After false discovery rate correction, higher urinary levels manganese, nickel, aluminum, rubidium, gallium, summary score only significantly lower MDI scores. The weighted quantile sum metal mixture showed a significant inverse association PDI scores, aluminum contributing most associations. Histidine, beta-alanine, purine, pyrimidine metabolism mediated above associations, suggesting that disturbances amino acids, neurotransmitter neuroendocrine may be important mediators children. linked underlying are unclear. Here, authors show neurotransmitters, mediate association.

Low birthweight (LBW) is a worldwide public health concern, while the global burden of LBW attributable to endocrine-disrupting chemicals, such as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), has not yet been evaluated. Here, we established large dataset for biomonitoring seven representative congeners PFAS by examining data from 2325 publications. Global exposure perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) was highest, followed perfluorohexanesulfonic (PFHxS) perfluorooctanoic (PFOA). Spatiotemporal varied considerably, with daily intake estimated in range 0.01–1.7 ng/kg/day. Moreover, decreasing trends PFOS, PFHxS, PFOA were noted most regions world over past two decades, but observed other long carbon chains, especially East Asia. Furthermore, that human contributed approximately 461,635 (95% confidence interval: 57,418 854,645) cases per year during predominantly Asian regions. Although our estimation may be constrained uncertainties dose–response curve availability, this study unveiled might contributor prevalence 2000–2019, supporting continuous actions mitigate contamination.

Globally, biomonitoring data demonstrate virtually all humans carry residues of multiple per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). Despite pervasive co-exposure, limited mixtures-based in vivo PFAS toxicity research has been conducted. Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) perfluorooctane sulfonic (PFOS) are commonly detected human environmental samples both produce adverse effects laboratory animal studies, including maternal offspring when orally administered during pregnancy lactation. To evaluate the combined exposure to PFOA PFOS, we exposed pregnant Sprague-Dawley rats from gestation day 8 (GD8) postnatal 2 (PND2) (10-250 mg/kg/d) or PFOS (0.1-5 individually characterize dose response curve parameters, followed by a variable-ratio mixture experiment with constant (2 mixed increasing doses (3-80 mg/kg/d). The study design was intended to: 1) shift curves for endpoints shared 2) allow comparison addition (DA) (RA) model predictions, 3) conduct relative potency factor (RPF) analysis endpoints, 4) avoid overt toxicity. Maternal serum liver concentrations were consistent between individual chemical experiments. Combined significantly shifted towards at lower compared PFOA-only these well predicted addition. For amenable analyses, DA produced equivalent better estimates observed than RA. All evaluated accurately RPF approaches except gestational weight gain, which less-than-additive results mixture. Data support hypothesis cumulative on co-exposure additive predictive effects.

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are persistent synthetic contaminants that pervasive in the environment. Toxicity resulting from elevated PFAS concentrations wildlife has been studied, yet evidence of their accumulation, developmental toxicity maternal offloading egg-laying species is limited. Here we show freshwater short-necked turtles (Emydura macquarii macquarii) exposed to biological impact on oviducal eggs. Total were determined serum adult females harvested eggs collected euthanised low high levels compared against turtle a suitable reference site. Multi-omics assays utilised explore biochemical egg albumen, yolk eggshell using range metabolomics, lipidomics, proteomics techniques. Eggshells also screened for metals by Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS). Analysis female demonstrated transference 1.6 5.3 times higher impacted eggs, respectively, concentrations. Oviducal comprised >90% bioaccumulated load. Multi-omic analysis dissected fractions illustrated significantly purine metabolism metabolites, which tied potential dysfunctional processes. The yolks depleted lipids lipid quality growth development. eggshells lower calcium, important immune response proteins, glycerophosphoethanolamines (PE) histidine metabolites weakened physical structure. Further investigation needed establish rate quantify hatchling success fully demonstrate PFAS-developmental linkages.
