Epidemiological evidence links exposure to 2-ethylhexyl diphenyl phosphate (EHDPP) with lipid metabolic disruption, typically attributed to nuclear receptors, while the role of membrane receptors remains underexplored. This study explored the role of adiponectin receptor 1 (AdipoR1) in EHDPP-induced lipid metabolic disturbances. We examined EHDPP's binding affinity and transcriptional impact on AdipoR1.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFLiver injury and inflammation are the most commonly observed adverse outcomes following exposure to penta-brominated flame retardants (penta-BFRs). However, the role of inflammation in the development of liver injury in their alternatives has not yet been explored. Our study aimed to investigate the effects and the underlying mechanism of perinatal exposure to pentabromoethylbenzene (PBEB), a penta-BDE alternative, on liver injury in adult offspring mice under both chow and western diet in later life.
