概括
和多醇基物质 (PFAS) 可能通过破坏信号传递和引起神经元亡,从而导致神经元退行. 这项研究开发了一个不良结果途径 (AOP) 网络,以探索PFAS的神经毒性机制,特别是对于阿尔茨海默氏症和帕金森病.
科学领域:
- 环境毒理学环境毒理学
- 神经科学是一个神经科学.
- 计算毒理学计算毒理学
背景情况:
- 新出现的证据表明,per-和多醇基物质 (PFAS) 具有神经毒性,但它们在神经退行中的作用尚不清楚.
- 对于神经退行现有的不良结果途径 (AOP) 并没有被整合到一个统一的网络中.
- 了解PFAS的神经毒性对于公共卫生和监管评估至关重要.
研究的目的:
- 开发第一个与神经退行相关的AOP网络.
- 探索长链遗留PFAS对神经退行症 (包括阿尔茨海默氏症和帕金森病) 的贡献.
- 阐明PFAS暴露和神经退行性途径之间的机制联系.
主要方法:
- 从AOP-Wiki中选了74个AOP,选择了13个与神经退行相关的AOP.
- 使用拓参数构建和分析了与神经退行相关的AOP网络.
- 综合证据将PFAS暴露与AOP网络中的关键事件 (KE) 联系起来.
主要成果:
- 确定了细胞内的增加作为网络枢纽,其次是神经退行,神经细胞亡,氧化应激,N-甲基-d-酸盐受体 (NMDA-R) 过度活化和线粒体功能障碍.
- 该AOP网络建议PFAS通过NMDA-R过度激活对神经递质系统产生不利影响,导致兴奋毒性.
- 暴露于PFAS可能会导致体平衡,线粒体功能障碍,炎症-氧化级联,神经炎症和神经元细胞死亡.
结论:
- 本研究提供了PFAS神经退行潜力的机制框架,突出了关键途径.
- 这些发现表明,PFAS可能会导致神经退行性疾病,如阿尔茨海默氏症和帕金森症.
- 需要进一步的实验验证,以在相关模型中确认这些机制联系.

Types of Toxins
1.6K
Humans continually engage with an environment rich in potentially harmful chemicals. These are introduced to our bodies through inhalation, ingestion, or skin contact. These chemicals exist in various forms, such as air and environmental pollutants, agricultural chemicals, organic solvents, and heavy metals.
Air pollutants, primarily gases, pose significant threats to respiratory health, leading to conditions like hypoxia, lung cancer, and in extreme cases, death.

Toxic Reactions: Overview
922
When toxic substances penetrate the human body, they disseminate to various tissues, undergoing metabolic changes. This process yields reactive metabolites that may covalently bind with specific target molecules, resulting in toxicity.
Toxicity falls into two primary categories: local and systemic.
Local toxicity appears at the exposure site, such as protein denaturation caused by caustic substances.
In contrast, systemic toxicity requires the toxic agent's absorption and distribution,...
