Description

Karolina Przepiórska-Drońska and co-authors test whether a common sunscreen filter harms the developing brain across generations, published in 2024. The chemical, benzophenone-3, is used in personal care products and as a stabilizer. It is suspected of disrupting hormones, yet its effects on brain growth over more than one generation were little studied.

The team exposed mother mice to levels like those found in the environment. They then checked markers of cell damage and cell death in two brain regions, in both the first and second generations. Effects differed by sex and by region. Signs of death through an external cell pathway rose most, and effects were stronger in the first generation than the second.
