Abstract excerpt
Poly- and perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are of human health concern as epidemiological studies show significant associations with testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs). Here, the effects of perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS), lithium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide (HQ-115), and hexafluoropropylene oxide dimer acid (GenX) on TGCT cells were investigated. Concentrations (10 nM to 1 µM) modelled PFAS doses in...
