Environmentally relevant exposure to cotinine induces neurobehavioral toxicity in zebrafish (Danio rerio): A study using neurobehavioral and metabolomic approaches.
Environmental Pollution 2024 March 20
As an important psychoactive substance, cotinine is ubiquitous in aquatic environment and poses a threat to aquatic organisms. However, the mechanism of its adverse health impacts remains unclear. We evaluated the effects of cotinine exposure at environmentally relevant concentrations on the development and locomotor behavior of zebrafish (Danio rerio) larvae using neurotransmitters and whole endogenous metabolism. Mild developmental toxicity and significant neurobehavior disorder, such as spontaneous movement (1-1000 μg/L), 48 hpf tactile response (50, 100, and 1000 μg/L), and 144 hpf swimming speed (1, 10, 100, 500, and 1000 μg/L), were observed in zebrafish. Exposure to cotinine led to significant alterations in 11 neurotransmitters, including homogentisic acid, serotonin, glutamic acid and aspartic acid, etc. 298 metabolites were identified and two pathways - linoleic acid metabolism and taurine and hypotaurine metabolism - were delineated. In addition, amino acid neurotransmitters were significantly correlated with metabolites such as arachidonic acid as well as its derivatives, steroidal compounds, and amino acids. Serotonin demonstrates a noteworthy correlation with 31 out of 40 differentially expressed neurotransmitters, encompassing lipids, amino acids, and other compounds. These novel findings contribute to a comprehensive understanding of the ecological risks associated with cotinine contamination in surface waters.
