Abstract:Exposure to emerging energy-based environmental contaminants such as lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI), more commonly known as HQ-115, poses a significant threat to human health, yet its impact on kidney function and epigenetic regulation remains poorly understood. Here, we investigated the effects of LiTFSI exposure on kidney-related biochemical parameters, renal injuries, and epigenetic alterations in male CD-1 mice under both 14-day and 30-day exposure durations. Our study revealed that Li… Show more
