Per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have been manufactured for over seven
decades. Owing to the unique characteristics of CF bond, it has been widely used in the …

Perfluorinated compounds (PFCs) are known to accumulate in liver and induce
hepatotoxicity on experimental animals. Liver fatty acid binding protein (L-FABP) is …

Phosphatidylcholine transfer protein (PC-TP; synonym StarD2) is a soluble lipid-binding
protein that transports phosphatidylcholine (PC) between cellular membranes. To better …

Perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS) is a persistent organic pollutant with significant

Abstract Fatty Acid-Binding Proteins (FABPs) are abundant intracellular proteins that bind
long chain fatty acids (FA) and have been related with inmunometabolic diseases. Intestinal …

We crystallized human liver fatty acid-binding protein (LFABP) in apo, holo, and intermediate
states of palmitic acid engagement. Structural snapshots of fatty acid recognition, entry, and …

In this study, we examined the distribution of per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in
liver and bile tissues from the patients with liver cancer (n= 202) and healthy controls (n …
