THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 946:174200. [PMID: 38936705 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.174200] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2024] [Revised: 05/25/2024] [Accepted: 06/20/2024] [Indexed: 06/29/2024]
Abstract
Alternatives are being developed to replace fluorinated persistent organic pollutants (POPs) listed in the Stockholm Convention, bypass environmental regulations, and overcome environmental risks. However, the extensive usage of fluorinated POPs alternatives has revealed potential risks such as high exposure levels, long-range transport properties, and physiological toxicity. Therefore, it is imperative to rethink the alternatives and their treatment technologies. This review aims to consider the existing destructive technologies for completely eliminating fluorinated POPs alternatives from the earth based on the updated classification and risks overview. Herein, the types of common alternatives were renewed and categorized, and their risks to the environment and organisms were concluded. The efficiency, effectiveness, energy utilization, sustainability, and cost of various degradation technologies in the treatment of fluorinated POPs alternatives were reviewed and evaluated. Meanwhile, the reaction mechanisms of different fluorinated POPs alternatives are systematically generalized, and the correlation between the structure of alternatives and the degradation characteristics was discussed, providing mechanistic insights for their removal from the environment. Overall, the review supplies a theoretical foundation and reference for the control and treatment of fluorinated POPs alternatives pollution.

Thyroid disrupting effects and the developmental toxicity of hexafluoropropylene oxide oligomer acids in zebrafish during early development. CHEMOSPHERE 2024; 361:142462. [PMID: 38815816 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2024.142462] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/29/2023] [Revised: 05/10/2024] [Accepted: 05/25/2024] [Indexed: 06/01/2024]
Abstract
As perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) alternatives, hexafluoropropylene oxide dimeric acid (HFPO-DA) and hexafluoropropylene oxide trimeric acid (HFPO-TA) have been increasingly used and caused considerable water pollution. However, their toxicities to aquatic organisms are still not well known. Therefore, in this study, zebrafish embryos were exposed to PFOA (0, 1.5, 3 and 6 mg/L), HFPO-DA (0, 3, 6 and 12 mg/L) and HFPO-TA (0, 1, 2 and 4 mg/L) to comparatively investigate their thyroid disrupting effects and the developmental toxicity. Results demonstrated that waterborne exposure to PFOA and its two alternatives decreased T4 contents, the heart rate and swirl-escape rate of zebrafish embryos/larvae. The transcription levels of genes related to thyroid hormone regulation (crh), biosynthesis (tpo and tg), function (trα and trβ), transport (transthyretin, ttr), and metabolism (dio1, dio2 and ugt1ab), were differently altered after the exposures, which induced the thyroid disrupting effects and decreased the heart rate. In addition, the transcription levels of some genes related to the nervous system development were also significantly affected, which was associated with the thyroid disrupting effects and consequently affected the locomotor activity of zebrafish. Therefore, HFPO-DA and HFPO-TA could not be safe alternatives to PFOA. Further studies to uncover the underlying mechanisms of these adverse effects are warranted.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 477:135246.

Abstract
The Yangtze finless porpoise (YFP, Neophocaena asiaeorientalis asiaeorientalis) is the only freshwater cetacean found in China. However, per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) risks in YFPs remain unclear. In this study, legacy PFASs, their precursors and alternatives, were determined in YFP muscles (n = 32), liver (n = 29), kidney (n = 24), skin (n = 5), and blubbers (n = 25) collected from Poyang Lake (PL) and Yangtze River (YR) between 2017 and 2023. Perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS) was the predominant PFAS in all YFP tissues, with a median hepatic concentration of 1700 ng/g wet weight, which is higher than that in other finless porpoises worldwide. PFOS, chlorinated polyfluorinated ether sulfonates (Cl-PFESAs), and perfluoroalkane sulfonamides concentrations in YFP livers from PL were significantly higher than those from YR (p < 0.05); however, the opposite was observed for hexafluoropropylene oxide acids. Biomagnification and trophic magnification factors (BMF and TMF, respectively) of most PFASs in the YFP food web were > 1. Perfluoroheptane sulfonic acid had the highest BMF value (99), followed by 6:2 Cl-PFESA (94) and PFOS (81). The TMFmuscle and TMFliver values of the total PFASs were 3.4 and 6.6, respectively, and were significantly positively correlated with the fluorinated carbon chain length (p < 0.01). In addition, up to 62 % of the hazard quotients for 6:2 Cl-PFESA were > 1, which was higher than that of PFOS (48 %), suggesting a high hepatotoxicity of 6:2 Cl-PFESA to YFPs. Bioaccumulation and biotoxicity of legacy and emerging alternatives in aquatic organisms continue to be a concern, especially for underscoring the vulnerability of the long-lived and endangered species.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 469:133807.

Abstract
8:2 polyfluoroalkyl phosphate diester (8:2 diPAP) has been shown to accumulate in the liver, but whether it induces hepatotoxicity and lipid metabolism disorders remains largely unknown. In this study, zebrafish embryos were exposed to 8:2 diPAP for 7 d. Hepatocellular hypertrophy and karyolysis were noted after exposure to 0.5 ng/L 8:2 diPAP, suggesting suppressed liver development. Compared to the water control, 8:2 diPAP led to significantly higher triglyceride and total cholesterol levels, but markedly lower levels of low-density lipoprotein, implying disturbed lipid homeostasis. The levels of two peroxisome proliferator activated receptor (PPAR) subtypes (pparα and pparγ) involved in hepatotoxicity and lipid metabolism were significantly upregulated by 8:2 diPAP, consistent with their overexpression as determined by immunohistochemistry. In silico results showed that 8:2 diPAP formed hydrogen bonds with PPARα and PPARγ. Among seven machine learning models, Adaptive Boosting performed the best in predicting the binding affinities of PPARα and PPARγ on the test set. The predicted binding affinity of 8:2 diPAP to PPARα (7.12) was higher than that to PPARγ (6.97) by Adaptive Boosting, which matched well with the experimental results. Our results revealed PPAR - mediated adverse effects of 8:2 diPAP on the liver and lipid metabolism of zebrafish larvae.

Sub-acute exposure of male guppies (Poecilia reticulata) to environmentally relevant concentrations of PFOA and GenX induces significant changes in the testis transcriptome and reproductive traits. ENVIRONMENT INTERNATIONAL 2024; 187:108703.

Abstract
Poly- and perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are frequently detected in the environment and are linked to adverse reproductive health outcomes in humans. Although legacy PFAS have been phased out due to their toxicity, alternative PFAS are increasingly used despite the fact that information on their toxic effects on reproductive traits is particularly scarce. Here, we exposed male guppies (Poecilia reticulata) for a short period (21 days) to an environmentally realistic concentration (1 ppb) of PFOA, a legacy PFAS, and its replacement compound, GenX, to assess their impact on reproductive traits and gene expression. Exposure to PFAS did not impair survival but instead caused sublethal effects. Overall, PFAS exposure caused changes in male sexual behaviour and had detrimental effects on sperm motility. Sublethal variations were also seen at the transcriptional level, with the modulation of genes involved in immune regulation, spermatogenesis, and oxidative stress. We also observed bioaccumulation of PFAS, which was higher for PFOA than for GenX. Our results offer a comprehensive comparison of these two PFAS and shed light on the toxicity of a newly emerging alternative to legacy PFAS. It is therefore evident that even at low concentrations and with short exposure, PFAS can have subtle yet significant effects on behaviour, fertility, and immunity. These findings underscore the potential ramifications of pollution under natural conditions and their impact on fish populations.

Abstract
Hexafluoropropylene oxide trimer acid (HFPO-TA), an emerging alternative to perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), has recently been identified as a significant environmental pollutant. Nevertheless, there is a scarcity of studies regarding the hepatotoxic effects of HFPO-TA. Here, we investigated the types and potential mechanisms of liver damage caused by HFPO-TA. Initially, we validated that the introduction of HFPO-TA resulted in the Wnt/β-catenin signaling (W/β signaling) activation, as well as the induction of necroptosis and inflammation, both in the liver of mice and in HepG2 cells. Subsequently, we established that the W/β signaling mediated the necroptosis and inflammation observed in the liver and HepG2 cells exposed to HFPO-TA. Finally, we demonstrated that the phosphorylated form of NF-κB p65 (p-NF-κB p65) played a role in mediating the necroptosis and inflammation, and its activity could be regulated by the W/β signaling pathway in the liver of mice and HepG2 cells exposed to HFPO-TA. In conclusion, our investigation elucidates the role of HFPO-TA in inducing necroptosis and inflammation in the liver, which is facilitated through the activation of the W/β/NF-κB axis.

Comp Biochem Physiol C Toxicol Pharmacol 2023; 270:109639. [PMID: 37259793 DOI: 10.1016/j.cbpc.2023.109639] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2023] [Revised: 04/11/2023] [Accepted: 04/26/2023] [Indexed: 06/02/2023]
Abstract
Di (2-ethyl) hexyl phthalate (DEHP) is a common environmental endocrine disruptor that induces oxidative stress, posing a significant threat to human and animal health. Oxidative stress can activate the PTEN/PI3K/AKT pathway, which is closely related to cell apoptosis. However, it is unclear whether DEHP induces apoptosis of chicken liver cells by regulating the PTEN/PI3K/AKT pathway through oxidative stress. In this experiment, male laying hens were continuously exposed to 400 mg/kg, 800 mg/kg, and 1600 mg/kg DEHP for 14 d, 28 d, and 42 d. The results showed that liver injury was aggravated with the dose of DEHP gavage, and the ROS/MDA levels in L, M, and H DEHP exposure groups were significantly increased, while the T-AOC/T-SOD/GSH-PX levels were decreased. Meanwhile, DEHP exposure up-regulated the mRNA and protein expression levels of PTEN/Bax/Caspase-9/Caspase-3 and down-regulated the mRNA and protein expression levels of PI3K/AKT/BCL-2, indicating that DEHP may lead to hepatocyte apoptosis through ROS regulation of PTEN/PI3K/AKT axis. In order to further clarify the relationship between oxidative stress and liver injury, we treated chicken hepatocellular carcinoma cell line (LMH) with 2.5 mM N-acetylcysteine (NAC). NAC attenuated these phenomena. In summary, our study suggests that DEHP can induce apoptosis of chicken liver through ROS activation of the PTEN/PI3K/AKT axis.
