Summary

Researchers found that PFOS exposure disrupts dopamine signaling and triggers apoptosis in zebrafish larvae, impairing early social behavior, while supplementation with vitamin A partially counteracted these neurotoxic effects, suggesting a potential protective role against PFOS-induced developmental neurotoxicity.

Body Systems

Our findings demonstrate that PFOS disrupts early social neurodevelopment through dopaminergic dysregulation and apoptotic signaling, while vitamin A exhibits counteractive potential. this study elucidates the impact of PFOS exposure on zebrafish social behavior and brain development. while highlighting the neuroprotective potential of vitamin A against PFOS exposure, These findings have significant guiding implications for the development of public health policy and provide a scientific foundation for comprehending the neurotoxicity of PFOS and developing effective intervention measures.
