Abstract
Differences in the ability of metabolically inert peroxisome proliferators [perfluoro-n-decanoic acid (PFDA, C10), perfluoro-n-octanoic acid (PFOA, C8), perflorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS, C8) and 1H,1H-pentadecafluoro-n-octanol (PFOL, C8)] to induce liver microsomal carboxylesterase RL4 in male rats were studied by evaluating changes in the RL4 content by immunoblot analysis with a specific antibody. The administration of PFOA, PFOS and PFOL markedly increase the content of carboxylesterase RL4. On the other hand, PFDA decreases PNPA, BUTA, and ISOC hydrolase activity, and slightly increases the carboxylesterase RL4 content.Keywords
