An assessment of serum‐dependent impacts on intracellular accumulation and genomic response of per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances in a placental trophoblast model
13 Aug 2020
Abstract excerpt
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), a class of environmental contaminants, have been detected in human placenta and cord blood. The mechanisms driving PFAS-induced effects on the placenta and adverse pregnancy outcomes are not well understood. This study investigated the impact of perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS), perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), and a replacement PFAS known as hexafluoropropylene oxide...
