Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates how the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) influences neurotoxicity in adult zebrafish exposed to bisphenol compounds (BPA, BPS, TBBPA) at doses that reflect environmental levels.
  • It involves measuring the effects of these compounds on gene expression and antioxidant enzyme activities after a 30-day exposure period, using various experimental groups, including a control and those treated with an AhR inhibitor.
  • The results indicate that exposure to bisphenols affects the expression of genes related to neural function and oxidative stress, with the AhR inhibitor partially mitigating these effects, suggesting a common mechanism of toxicity among the bisphenols.
