Research progress on epigenetic effects induced by perfluorooctane sulfonate
-
Abstract
perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) is widely used in food package, textile, paper, and insecticide. The toxic action of PFOS has attracted increasing attention due to its high persistence, bioaccumulation, potential carcinogenicity, and consequently great harm to ecological environment and human health. This review focused on the epigenetic effects of PFOS on DNA methylation, histone modification, and non-coding RNA regulation.
