Perfluorodecanoic acid
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Perfluorodecanoic acid (PFDA) is an orally active perfluoroalkyl substance. Perfluorodecanoic acid causes dysfunction of rat fetal Leydig cells via endoplasmic reticulum stress-mediated changes in lipid components. Perfluorodecanoic acid reduces testosterone biosynthesis in rat R2C Leydig cells by inducing endoplasmic reticulum stress. Perfluorodecanoic acid can be used in studies related to fetal Leydig cell dysfunction.

Perfluorodecanoic acid (0-150 μM; 24 h) reduces testosterone biosynthesis in rat R2C Leydig cells by inducing endoplasmic reticulum stress, in which 100 μM PFDA (24 h incubation) significantly inhibits steroidogenesis, while 150 μM PFDA (24 h incubation) decreases cell viability[1].
