The emerging contaminant HFPO-TA impairs hepatic glucose metabolism and induces pparγ-associated lipid metabolic disorders in zebrafish.

Hexafluoropropylene oxide trimer acid (HFPO-TA) is a new alternative to PFOA; it is already widely used and has caused global pollution. Previous studies have suggested that HFPO-TA may influence hepatic glucose and lipid metabolism via PPAR signaling pathway, however, the underlying molecular mechanism remains unclear...
