Transcriptional Changes Caused by Bisphenol A in Oryzias javanicus, a Fish Species Highly Adaptable to Environmental Salinity

Abstract: The Javanese medaka, Oryzias javanicus, is a fish highly adaptable to various environmental salinities. Here, we investigated the effects of the environmental pollutant bisphenol A (BPA; an endocrine disrupting chemical) on gene expression levels in this species acclimated to different salinities. Using cDNA microarrays, we detected the induction of differential expression of genes by BPA, and compared the transcriptional changes caused by chemical exposure at different salinities. There were marked transcript… Show more

“…Glutathione-S-transferase is a phase II metabolic detoxification enzyme. Woo et al (2014) reported increase in GST activity in Oryzias javanicus after exposure to BPA in sea water. Activity of GST also increased in kidney and liver of grass carp after exposure to 3 mg/l of BPA (Faheem and Lone 2017).…”

“…This may be explained by the greater hardness and thickness of the egg shell of marine medaka embryos than zebrafish embryos and the longer incubation period (11 days compared with 48 h), resulted in greater protection of the embryo by the egg shell during medaka development 30,31 . In addition, salinity influences the toxic effect of pollutants 20,32 . In this study, exposure to 1 mg/L and 5 mg/L BPAF caused a hatching delay in marine medaka embryos and reduced the hatching rate.…”

“…The nonspecific nature of such effects of environmental stress on macromolecular damage and the induction of upp1 during acute heat stress in black rockfish ( Sebastes schlegelii ) supports its role for replenishing building blocks for RNA pools during stress [ 86 ]. Moreover, the upp2 gene of Javanese medaka ( Oryzias javanicus ), was shown to be induced by yet another type of stress, bisphenol A (BPA), which is a potent environmental toxicant, implicating upp2 in the compensation of BPA chemical toxicant stress [ 87 ].…”
