Cytotoxicity and apoptosis induction on RTG-2 cells of 2,2′,4,4′-tetrabromodiphenyl ether (BDE-47) and decabrominated diphenyl ether (BDE-209) (original) (raw)
2010, Toxicology in Vitro
Recently, the environmental residues of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) have markedly increased. In particular, the levels of certain PBDE congeners in fish have raised concern regarding potential risks associated with dietary PBDEs exposures. However, little is known regarding PBDE-mediated cell injury in relevant in vitro fish cell models. In this study, the cytotoxic effects of 2,2 0 ,4,4 0 -tetrabromodiphenyl ether (BDE-47) and decabrominated diphenyl ether (BDE-209) on RTG-2 cells were investigated.
