Title: | Intrauterine exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances may harm children's lung function development | Authors: | HSIAO-YU YANG CHINGCHUN LIN Chen M.-H. Tsai M.-S. Hsieh W.-S. PAU-CHUNG CHEN |
Keywords: | Allergic disease; Lung development; Lung function; Prenatal exposure; per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances | Issue Date: | 2021 | Journal Volume: | 192 | Source: | Environmental research | Abstract: | Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), such as perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), perfluorononanoic acid (PFNA) and perfluoroundecanoic acid (PFUA), are common persistent environmental organic pollutants. Animal studies have indicated that PFAS influence inflammatory responses and lung development. However, whether prenatal or childhood PFAS exposure affects children's lung function remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate both in utero exposure and childhood exposure to PFAS and the relationships between them and lung function development in childhood. |
