Abstract



Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) may interact with peroxisome proliferator activated receptors (PPARs) and alter lipid homeostasis. Using Xenopus laevis, we investigated the effect of PFAS on (a) lipid homeostasis and whether this correlated to changes in body and hepatic condition; (b) the expression of hepatic genes regulated by PPAR; and (c) the hepatic lipidome. We chronically exposed tadpoles to 0.5 mu g/L of either PFOS, PFHxS, PFOA, PFHxA, a binary mixture of PFOS and PFHxS (0.5 mu g/L of each), or a control, from NF stage 52 through metamorphic climax. Growth, development, and survival were not affected, but we detected a sex-specific decrease in body condition at NF 66 (6.8%) and in hepatic condition (16.6%) across metamorphic climax for male tadpoles exposed to PFOS. We observed weak evidence for the transient downregulation of apolipoprotein-V (apoa5) at NF 62 in tadpoles exposed to PFHxA. Acyl-CoA oxidase 1 (acox1) was downregulated only in males exposed to PFHxS (Ln(Fold Change) = -0.54). We detected PFAS-specific downregulation of structural glycerophospholipids, while semi-quantitative profiling detected the upregulation in numerous glycerophospholipids, sphingomyelins, and diglycerides. Overall, our findings indicate that PFAS can induce sex-specific effects that change across larval development and metamorphosis. We demonstrate that PFAS alter lipid metabolism at environmentally relevant concentrations through divergent mechanisms that may not be related to PPARs, with an absence of effects on body condition, demonstrating the need for more molecular studies to elucidate mechanisms of PFAS-induced lipid dysregulation in amphibians and in other taxa.
