PFAS | Exposure Level Range Tested for Neurodegeneration (ppm) | Threshold for DA Neurodegeneration | Threshold for Non-DA Neurodegeneration | Selective Neurodegeneration (Yes/No) |
---|---|---|---|---|
PFOA | 25–200 | Not found | Not tested | Not detected at tested exposure levels |
PFOS | 25–200 | 25 | 100 | Yes |
GenX | 25–200 | 200 | Not tested | Yes |
Numerous PFAS were evaluated for evidence of neurodegeneration. Selective DA neurodegeneration was identified where the threshold (lowest does) to induce statistically significant DA neurodegeneration was lower than that to induce non-DA neurodegeneration (significant effects on GABA, 5-HT, or ACh neurons)—lowest exposure level to affect one of these populations is reported. ND = not detectable.
