Perfluoroheptanesulfonic acid
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Perfluoroheptanesulfonic acid (1-Perfluoroheptanesulfonic acid; Perfluoroheptanesulphonic acid; PFHpS) is a per- and polyfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS) that penetrates the skin and induces systemic toxicity and immunotoxicity. Perfluoroheptanesulfonic acid reduces the expression of PPARδ in liver tissue; it induces hepatocyte hypertrophy and necrosis in liver tissue and alters serum biochemical markers associated with liver injury. Perfluoroheptanesulfonic acid upregulates genes related to fatty acid metabolism, cell necrosis and inflammation, reduces the relative weights of the spleen and thymus, suppresses humoral immune responses, and alters the composition of immune cell subsets in the spleen and skin. The plasma concentration of Perfluoroheptanesulfonic acid correlates with food intake. Perfluoroheptanesulfonic acid and perfluorooctanesulfonic acid exhibit synchronous pulse events in influent samples from wastewater treatment plants. Perfluoroheptanesulfonic acid can be used in studies related to liver injury and immune system damage.

In Vitro
Perfluoroheptanesulfonic acid (PFHpS) can reach a peak concentration of 18 ng/L during pulse discharge events in influent water of wastewater treatment plants; to reliably detect its concentration fluctuations, at least 9 random hourly grab samples need to be collected per day[2].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
In Vivo
Perfluoroheptanesulfonic acid (0.625-2.5% w/v; topical; daily; 10 days) suppresses the spleen humoral immune response to sheep red blood cells (with up to 62.3% reduced total IgM activity) and alters splenic immune cell populations in female B6C3F1 mice[1].

Result:Elevated systemic PFHpS burdens in serum and urine following dermal exposure across gradient dosage groups.
Altered organ relative weights for liver, spleen and thymus in a dose‑dependent manner.
Disrupted serum biochemical profiles involving lipid, glucose and liver‑injury markers.
Produced hepatic histopathological injuries including hepatocellular hypertrophy and focal necrosis.
Triggered skin histological changes such as epidermal hyperplasia and disturbed skin‑barrier‑related gene transcription.
Remodeled transcriptional profiles of hepatic lipid‑metabolism, necrosis‑related genes under high‑dose conditions.
Disturbed immune‑cell subset composition in skin, draining lymph nodes and spleen.
Induced modest transcriptional changes of innate‑immunity‑associated genes within splenic tissue.
