Review: Progress towards research on the toxicology of pyrimethanil.

Pyrimethanil is a persistent environmental pollutant that poses a significant threat to human health. In this review, we summarize the fungicidal mechanism of pyrimethanil and its toxicological effects on aquatic organisms and mammals, as well as its impact on growth and development as an endocrine disruptor. Additionally, we investigate the metabolism of pyrimethanil in mammals and its molecular mechanism in the occurrence of Alzheimer's disease. Furthermore, this review outlines the influence of climate change on the toxicity of pyrimethanil, emphasizing the need to consider the impact of mixtures of multiple compounds on human health. Finally, we propose several promising future directions for pyrimethanil research, believing that there is a better understanding of the interaction between pyrimethanil and organisms, as well as the development of techniques to remove pyrimethanil, may be the best approach to eliminating the threat posed by this compound.
