Perfluoroundecanoic acid
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Perfluoroundecanoic acid is a perfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS). Perfluoroundecanoic acid is an orally active oxidative stress inducer. Perfluoroundecanoic acid promotes macrophage M2 polarization, activates Wnt/β-catenin signaling and enhances β-catenin nuclear accumulation. Perfluoroundecanoic acid -induced M2 phenotype macrophage accelerates tumor progression in vitro and in vivo. Perfluoroundecanoic acid induces DNA damage, reproductive and pathophysiological dysfunctions via oxidative stress in male Swiss mice. Perfluoroundecanoic acid inhibits Leydig cell development in pubertal male rats via inducing oxidative stress and autophagy. Perfluoroundecanoic acid accelerates insulitis development in a mouse model of type 1 diabetes. Perfluoroundecanoic acid can be used for the study of ovarian cancer, type 1 diabetes and inflammation.

Biological Activity
Perfluoroundecanoic acid (2-16 μM, 24 h) promotes M2 polarization of RAW264.7 macrophages by increasing the protein and mRNA levels of M2 markers (ARG1, CD163, TGF-β) and decreasing M1 marker (iNOS)[1].
Perfluoroundecanoic acid (8 μM, 24 h) activates Wnt/β-catenin signaling in RAW264.7 cells, enhancing β-catenin expression and nuclear translocation[1].
Perfluoroundecanoic acid (8 μM, 24 h)-pretreated RAW264.7 cell conditioned medium promotes migration and invasion of A2780 and SKOV3 ovarian cancer cells, which is reversed by β-catenin inhibitor ICG001 (HY-14428)[1].

Perfluoroundecanoic acid (0-10 mg/kg, p.o., daily, 21-35 days) inhibits Leydig cell development and function via oxidative stress and autophagy in pubertal male Sprague-Dawley rats[2].
Perfluoroundecanoic acid (3-300 μg/L in drinking water, from mating through gestation, lactation and until 30 weeks of age) accelerates insulitis development in a mouse model of type 1 diabetes[3].
