Note: Statistical significance was determined by t-test using R statistical software (version 4.2.0; R Development Core Team). FDR, false discovery rate; Ldlr, low density lipoprotein receptor; PFAS, per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances; RNA-seq, RNA sequencing; SEM, standard error of the mean. *Represents significant change relative to vehicle control (q<0.05).
