PFOS exposure causes anxiety-like behavior and social disturbance in zebrafish. |
Neurodevelopment and relative expression of dopamine-related genes. RNA was extracted from at least 30 fish each time. |
Effect of apoptosis pathway in zebrafish. |
Vitamin A improves neurodevelopment and the relative expression of dopamine-related genes. DMSO was used as the control group in this experiment. The 1 μM group represented the exposure group with a PFOS concentration of 1 μM, and the 5 μM group represented the exposure group with a PFOS concentration of 5 μM. “VA” refers to the vitamin A group; 1 μM + VA denotes the vitamin A intervention group with a PFOS concentration of 1 μM, and 5 μM + VA denotes the vitamin A intervention group with a PFOS concentration of 5 μM. |
Vitamin A improves apoptosis of zebrafish. |
Zebrafish anxiety-like behavior and social interaction improved after vitamin A intervention. |
