Embryonal exposure to 4-methylbenzylidene camphor induces reproduction impairment in adult zebrafish (Danio rerio)
This study investigated how early exposure to xenobiotics can lead to disease in adulthood, which is challenging for toxicologists. We employed a ‘cradle to grave’ approach using zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryos exposed to 4-methylbenzylidene camphor (4-MBC), a commonly used organic UV filter. Molecular docking and simulation studies confirmed the predictive toxicity and stable interaction of 4-MBC with androgen and estrogen receptors, with binding energies of −9.28 and −9.01 kcal/mol, respectively. Exposure to 4-MBC at 5, 50, and 500 μg/L concentrations resulted in significantly altered transcriptional and translational responses of ar, esr1, and vtg1 genes in embryos at 120 h post-fertilization (hpf). The exposure induced a non-monotonic dose-response pattern (NMDR), a characteristic feature of endocrine-disrupting chemicals. Additionally, a significant decrease in fertilization was observed in adults. Although fecundity was not affected in inter- and intra-breeding performances, developmental deformities were observed in F1 progenies with impaired survival at 10 days post-fertilization. The findings of this study show that embryonic exposure to 4-MBC is likely to induce reproductive and transgenerational toxicity in D. rerio and exhibit endocrine disruption in aquatic non-target organisms. This work is the first to elucidate the low-level long-term effects of 4-MBC from the embryonic stage to adulthood.
期刊介绍:
Part C: Toxicology and Pharmacology. This journal is concerned with chemical and drug action at different levels of organization, biotransformation of xenobiotics, mechanisms of toxicity, including reactive oxygen species and carcinogenesis, endocrine disruptors, natural products chemistry, and signal transduction with a molecular approach to these fields.
