PAH and Hypoxia Exposure Result in Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Fish
from NIEHS Superfund Research Program - Research Brief Podcasts · host Superfund Research Program
Zebrafish exposed to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in water with inadequate oxygen, or hypoxia, can experience a broad range of effects on the mitochondria, according to an NIEHS Superfund Research Program (SRP)-funded study. Changes to the function and integrity of mitochondria, which are organelles that make energy for the cell, can disrupt metabolism and reduce organism fitness and performance.
